There is an exciting upcoming virtual event seminar that should prove to be very informative that I wanted to let everyone know about. It is the Red Deer College Next Wave 4 VA’s Virtual Workshop Event that will be taking place, you guessed it, virtually!
I was recently approached by a domain sales company offering to sell me a .com domain similar to one I had just purchased three weeks earlier for the low, low price of $397.00. Yes, that’s right $397.00!
So, I’ve been back from vacation for a little over a week now, in fact this is the first time I’ve had an opportunity to take a moment and write a post. It’s been pretty busy since I got back from vacation to say the least. It’s just another reminder of why these vacations are so darn important.
I have to say I am an absolute freak when it comes to clutter and with a three year old, you can imagine how difficult this is for me. I’m one of those people who love space and hate the thought of filling that space with unnecessary clutter. I would be happy with a TV, a comfy couch and nothing but open spaces.
I am thrilled to have my dear friend Mary-Lou Ashton, Virtual Assistant, Coach, Trainer and all around awesome person contribute her wonderful words of wisdom to my blog this week. She has written a fantastic 2-part article on Owning Your Value as a VA. A must read for any Virtual Assistant.
Owning Your Value as a VA – Part I
For many VA’s, especially those starting out, it can be difficult to own and honour the value we bring. While we may know and understand it, owning it is a whole different story. So how can you really own the value you bring to a client?
I’m back from a wonderful, relaxing vacation and I’m sure no surprise to any of you I’m in the notorious “email hell”. One week’s vacation equates to over 1000 emails, can you believe that? Mind you most of it can be handled by the quick hit of the delete button and trust me that delete button is working overtime.
