When there just doesn’t seem
to be enough hours in the day to get all the work done, and yet there is not
enough work to justify hiring a new office assistant, maybe I can help by doing
some of that work for you on an “as needed” basis. You pay only for the work
done, no need to worry about paying an employee for benefits, insurance,
payroll expenses, idle time, lunch breaks, or personal phone calls or web
browsing on company time!
There are many tasks I could
do for your company. Check my list of specialties, and if you don’t see the job
listed, contact me and I will give you a quote. I can pick up the work locally
in San Diego County, or you can send me the work as an email attachment. I will
complete the job in the allotted time and return it to you either in-person,
first class mail, Fed-Ex or Internet email.
I currently teach Virtual
Office Assistant courses at Grossmont College, San
Diego Community College, and the Academy of Virtual Professionals. Many of the
local virtual assistants were students of mine. Perhaps one or more of my
students have already contacted you about working in the manner I propose. I
encourage you to utilize their services. For those important jobs when you would
rather have the “teacher” do the work instead of the “student,” I am available
to handle your toughest jobs. My experience has given me the ability to
complete difficult tasks in a shorter amount of time, so chances are I might
even end up costing you less because other “VA’s” will take more time to do the
same job.
I’ll look forward to
discussing your needs. My services might be exactly what you need to keep your
business cost-effective. If you would like to learn more about how Virtual
Assistants are helping businesses around the world, check out some of these web
sites for more information or one of the hottest careers of the new millennium.
