Successful beta testing starts even before your system is born! Does that idea sound strange? It's not really that odd when you think that beta testing is meant to involve a methodical prove-in of a carefully designed system, such as an electronic device, Web site, or automated tool. It's not meant to be a hit-or-miss, cross-your-fingers-and-hope-everything's-OK Band-Aid that you can apply at the last minute.We've all seen examples of software programs -- even from well-known, respectable software companies -- that arrive on our de
“So what do you do?” I’m casually asked as I pay for my meal at a local restaurant. I’ve heard this question a thousand times before and each time I’m tempted to say something simple, something easy. Sometimes I say I’m a writer. Other times I’m a business consultant. Once I even said I was a web designer. But do you wanna know the truth?I’m none of those. And yet, at the same time, I’m all of them. You see I work full time from home in what is casually called by insiders the “Internet Marketing” niche. It’s not as pretty as some p
Is paperwork stopping you from growing your business? Do you wish you had a bit more time to spend on doing the things that got you excited in the first place? Building a business can turn into an exhausting treadmill if you aren't careful. The more business you do, the more administrative tasks you have; the more time you spend on administrative tasks, the less time you have to focus on generating new revenue.
Wouldn't it be great if you had an assistant that was always ready to work for you, but only when you need him or her? Presenting the Virtual Assistant
Allow me to introduce the Virtual Assistant, a new breed of office manager that has evolved due to the eruption of more home-based businesses working over the internet. The virtual assistant provides practical solutions for small businesses and the perfect solution to manage administrative projects.
Because the virtual assistant is self-employed, invoices only by hours worked or tasks completed, and is dependent upon referrals and steady work flow from existing clients, s/he can be the perfect solution for a busy business. The success of their business depends very much on the success of your business.
A virtual assistant offers several advantages over a paid employee. When you hire a virtual assistant you get all the benefits of outsourcing - no employee tax and benefits issues, coupled with the loyalty and steadiness of a company employee. Traditional staffing solutions don't work for everyone for a variety of reasons. Temps are a transient solution, and they can be expensive. If you need someone only a few hours a day or week, a temp can prove more costly in terms of trainin
If your business is in the process of development, you'll realise that there many aspects to office expansion that you'll need to cover. For instance, you might be building an additional floor onto your building, or renovating any existing unused parts of your building to accommodate your burgeoning staff levels and equipment. But whether you require building services or facilities management, you can be sure that you and your business won't have to undertake these daunting tasks without support.Many companies offer full property m

The question isn’t whether or not your business has a website, it’s a given it does. The real question is this: Does your website allow you to connect and interact with visitors? If it doesn’t, you are missing out on an enormous opportunity to grow your business.A website that is nothing more than an electronic brochure is not going to help you attract more clients and be more profitable.Did you know that the first time someone visits your website that it is most likely the last time they will visit?If most people n

When you sell your time, you sell your life. You might as well be a slave or a mercenary – or an employee. You cannot get rich selling time unless you’re very highly qualified or a rock star or film star. That’s why most consultants and coaches experience peaks and valleys - “chicken or feathers” – their income is seasonal and they work harder and harder for less and less.When I meet with my Joint Venture Forum Members, I always tell them that they should have each Joint Venture they consider fit within the following parameters: “N

Janet, one of my clients from Chicago, recently asked my advice on dealing with people who talk loudly on their cell phones while in public. I know I’ve been guilty of this offense before as my voice tends to project very well and sometimes I forget that I don’t need to speak very loudly for my phone to pick it up.Sometimes, like when you’re in a movie theater, any kind of loud cell phone talking needs to be quieted immediately and the most direct way is the best. But often in public, you may feel a bit awkward telling a stranger
Full time employees also come with a host of issues. Not only must you provide equipment and furniture for them, you also have financial obligations, and employer liabilities. It is estimated that the true cost of an employee is over double and sometimes triple the cost of their annual salary in terms of benefits and liabilities.
Virtual Assistants are already computer trained, and can quite happily manage your personal or your business life. Your virtual assistant can write your letters; create your presentations; manage your books, your email, your calls and your appointments; organise your meetings, your travel and book your hotels; create your spreadsheets and help you grow your business. You can train your virtual assistant to go beyond administrative support to client development and marketing support. The service that can be provided by a virtual assistant is limited only by imagination.
So how do you find a VA? You would be surprised how quickly this industry is growing. If the job/project you have in mind does not require physical proximity, then you have the whole world open to you. To help you find the right Virtual Assistant for your needs, the Society of Virtual Assistants (www.societyofvirtualassistants.co.uk ) manages a database of its members and their skills.
