Who wants to be a VA?

No, I’m not talking about being part of the Veteran’s Administration. In the world of the internet, a VA is a Virtual Assistant. Basically, it’s like being a secretary for someone but never having to work outside of your home. The benefits are great – you get to set your own hours, have freedom to take vacations when, and as often as, you want, you can even set your own pay rate.
I’ve been doing some VA work, but don’t really have a good grasp on the “business” side of it. If you’d like to learn more about becoming a VA, check out Telecommuting Answer Lady‘s blog today. She’s giving away one copy of her “How to Become a Virtual Assistant” course. It’s a $29.95 value, and she’s giving one copy away to one lucky person.
While you’re there, sign up for her daily list of new telecommuting jobs. It’ll save you time and effort if you’re serious about working from home.
Being a virtual assistant can be a great way to earn a living or supplement one’s current income.
You’re right, Claudia. There’s a lot to learn about being a VA, and that’s why I entered the contest.
Thank you for stopping by my blog, by the way. I hope you enjoy your look around my crazy life.
