Become a Virtual Assistant

I get posts on an almost daily basis asking how to become a Virtual Assistant or VA. Having been in the business since 2000 it obviously cannot be condensed into one e-mail and there are so many types of VA - ie people who are self employed and work via the Internet that it is a huge subject. The aim of this blog is to give new and those thinking of becoming a VA what life is really like.

I have to own up and say that my office is in a partly converted barn high in the French hills so I am not even the average Virtual Assistant but then that is good because to succeed in this business you need to be far more than average - the average only normally last a year.

If you have any comments on this blog or anything you would like to see covered, please mail me at chapman.di@gmail.com and I will try to cover and answer your questions.
