What is a Virtual Assistant?
"Virtual Assistants (VAs) are independent entrepreneurs providing professional administrative, creative, managerial, technical, business office and/or personal support services. VAs use the most advanced means of communication, and the newest and most efficient and time saving office products and work delivery, regardless of geographic boundaries. Virtual Assistants work from their own offices, on a contractual basis, and abide by an established Code of Ethics requiring integrity, honesty and due diligence." (Definition provided by The Alliance for Virtual Businesses).
A Virtual Assistant is your partner. VAs help businesses grow by providing innovative solutions and services that enable business owners to build, maintain, and manage their businesses cost-effectively. Assistance from a VA can eliminate the administrative work that bogs businesses down, thereby creating time to focus on achieving your business goals.
Traditionally known as an Administrative Assistant, Office Manager, Secretary, or Personal Assistant, Virtual Assistants provide administrative and/or personal support "virtually," from their own home office. Simply put, a VA can help you with your business and personal administrative support needs.
