While it may seem like successful Small Business owners were overnight successes and can multitask like a harried, four-armed Vishnu, it’s usually false. Successful Small Business owners frequently have several major failures under their belts, and they usually had a lot of help bringing their success to fruition. While we can’t guarantee success, we can provide tools to help you defeat the crisis of not having enough help to become successful.

Thanks to the openness, connectivity, and relative low cost of the Internet today, we now have the ability to work with many people over vast distances at affordable rates. Some of those people who can help your Small Business are Virtual Assistants (a/k/a VA’s). They have many different functions and abilities, work remotely, and we’ll discuss how to take best advantage of these valuable resources in this Web-based seminar.

In this Webinar, we will cover:
– Best-practices for deciding what you can outsource to a Virtual Assistant;
– Where to find and how to vet Virtual Assistants for your business’s needs;
– How to effectively train Virtual Assistants so you don’t have to repeat yourself over and over again, especially if you work with several Virtual Assistants; and,
– Tools that can help you manage your Virtual Assistants from anywhere
