Heya!!

Depending on your business structure, you may want to look into Micro Branding... The field you are in is a pretty specialized filed (right now) - the goal is to become distinct in that market so that you can generate the type of clients that you need.

Good Luck!!

You need to find the Virtual Assistant Networks that have been set up around the world to help you on your journey. Many of the networks have directory listings for their members and also help attract clients for your business. They also give you guidance on how to build your business, the services you offer and how to work with your clients. They're a great place for learning, discussing and even venting when needed.

I am a Virtual Assistant and have been running my business since March 1994. I'm based in Melbourne Australia and know VAs from all around the world.

I welcome questions and am happy to give you more information about the industry if you are interested.
