Updates, stories, tips and tricks

Being part of a networking group like Venus, is definitely great for a business owner.

Whether you're a start-up business or been around for yonks, the connections you make can last for a very long time.

When I launched My Virtual Assistant, back in 2009, I hadn't ever heard about networking groups, and if I had I didn't give them much thought because I'd never need to find my own clients before.

After receiving some awesome feedback from people who receive My Virtual Assistant's monthly newsletter, I decided to dig out my old, but never used, selfie-stick and have a go at making a video.

My Virtual Assistant celebrates TEN YEARS IN BUSINESS!

We are excited to announce the winner of our 10th Birthday Competition...

The other day I was chatting with an acquaintance and they asked my why I love doing what I do, so much.
 
My initial reaction was to laugh-out-loud and say, ‘for the money, of course!’

Back when I worked full time in the ‘real world’ I was on an extremely good income, in a great job with an awesome boss and worked with a fabulous team of people, some of which are still very good friends to this day.
 
My next reaction to the question was, ‘why wouldn’t I love what I do?  I get to work from home!’ 

If your business was a celebrity, who would it be?

Which celebrity personality would you identify with your business? 

This was a question asked of My Virtual Assistant recently, and after some thought, this is what I came up with...

My Virtual Assistant launches a brand new website for... My Virtual Assistant!

My Virtual Assistant is excited and proud to announce the launch of a brand sparkling new website!

All websites could do with a revamp or a big birthday every now and again, and My Virtual Assistant's own website was no exception. 

Getting people to 'like' your brand new Facebook business page isn't as easy as people think and in many cases it can be a rather slow process to grow your followers.

Here are a few things you can try...

Thirteen March 2018 marks another year in business for My Virtual Assistant - and that makes it 9 years so far!

Crikey, how time flies! 

Over the years, the promise of friendly customer service has never waivered and neither has the importance of providing my wonderful clients with valuable business support for things like newsletters, brochure/flyer design, editing/ proofreading, and more.

Simon Sinek is such an inspiration and I recently stumbled across this fabulous video, which I couldn't resist sharing with you.

"He's an author, speaker, and consultant who writes on leadership and management. He joined the RAND Corporation in 2010 as an adjunct staff member, where he advises on matters of military innovation and planning. He's known for popularising the concepts of 'the golden circle' and to 'Start With Why'."

Now, go and pour yourself a cuppa, sit back and enjoy watching Simon Sinek and his Top 10 rules for success...
