Now that business on the Internet no longer depends on geographic location, there is a serious need for people who are loyal, skilled, and trustworthy to serve small businesses as Administrative Virtual Assistants, commonly known as "VAs." A Virtual Assistant is a person who manages many of the details of a small business, much like an office manager does, only they do it all virtually from a remote location.

Once I identified the need, I didn't know where to look for someone to hire. So I decided to train one myself.

Listen to What My VA Says about Being a Virtual Assistant

"I've been organizing other people's lives most of my life. My mom went back to work full-time when I was 12. Being the oldest child, I felt it was my responsibility to keep my three siblings on track. I made sure they did their homework, had a snack after school, and came home from their friends' house on time. I even tried to keep my brothers from harassing my sister. "I was glad to help my mom by making sure our house ran smoothly while she was away at work. Now, I keep my own home organized and enjoy helping organize Rhea's business.

Denise Lindvall Virtual Assistant

"Being a Virtual Assistant is like being the hub in the center of a wheel. I continually support all the spokes (projects) so the whole wheel rolls evenly down the road. "Rhea has so many wonderful business ideas. She uses my expertise to make sure they happen by giving me the "big picture," then I work out all the details. "I stay in communication with all the people involved in Rhea's projects to make sure they have the tools and information they need to meet our deadlines. "There are always bumps in the road of business, but when you have a good system of doing things, the wheel rolls smoothly and efficiently. My job is to make sure everyone around me has a positive, enjoyable ride. "The best part is that I get to do this all from home! When my kids need my help, it's no problem. I can attend to their needs and then get back to my work later. "If you are a detail-oriented person who enjoys seeing a project through to the end, being a Virtual Assistant is perfect for you." Denise Lindvall Waterford, California

Now several of my Internet friends would like to find someone like her to serve in their businesses. And I just happen to know a whole bunch of moms and teenagers who would make great VAs for business owners so we have decided to offer training!

This virtual class was recorded to provide you with basic training to become an administrative VA. My VA Denise hosted this class to provide basic training for administrative VA's so anyone who likes to organize things can have their own home business!

My virtual assistant provides Administrative Support by setting up our conference calls and webinars, taking notes during virtual meetings, scheduling appointments, managing my email, overseeing my projects, providing customer support, submitting press releases, uploading posts to my blog, and makig sure everything on my calendar gets finished.

She doesn't do bookkeeping or marketing. Essentially she is a manager that helps us finish tasks. And the perfect thing about a business like this is that she can schedule her work around her other commitments to family, homeschooling, church and community responsibilities!

What an Administrative VA Doesn't Do

• Provide Tax Advice
• Serve as an accountant
• Transcribe
• Moderate major discussion groups
• Provide Web Master Services
• Provide Business Coaching

When Opportunity Arises, Jump On It

About three years ago, many of my friends were beginning to host conference calls to share information about their products, services and conferences. Many wanted to transcribe those calls but were having a hard time finding reliable transcribers who could record their audio information in print correctly and return it to them within a day or two. Most took a week or two. Some never sent the client's files back. So I hosted a class, trained some transcribers, and got them started with their own home businesses. But some didn't want to go find work; they wanted me to bring it to them. So we started the InternetTranscribers.com, who now transcribe for the top marketers on the Internet today. That's an example of seeing a need and meeting it.

I can be a VA!

Well, Here's Another Opportunity!

Now my friends are asking for Virtual Assistants and there aren't that many around to meet the need. The duties aren't hard; they just require a responsible person to make sure everything gets done on time. Some people are starters; some people are finishers. It takes both to create a successful online business. VAs are finishers who love putting all the pieces together to manage and finalize projects.

This is the job for me!

Every class will be available to you virtually forever.

Who Should Take This Course?

"Denise, I can honestly say that the VA class has opened up a whole new world for me. The computer skills you taught were very valuable, but even more than that, you taught me CONFIDENCE. I had accepted an identity about myself as someone who just was not 'computer literate,' and who did not have any skills to offer, outside of my family.

I was so convinced of this, that when my apprenticeship began, I almost asked to be removed from the program before I even really got started, just because I thought I could never learn everything that was necessary! However, with your help, and the support of the other members of the class (who are always there to help answer questions), I stuck it out, and I am so glad I did!

"I now have the confidence to tell my client, "Absolutely! No problem!" and really mean it! And not even to mention that I am now making a contribution to my family's finances, as well. But the real value of the VA class goes way beyond money. Thank you, Denise!"

"I learned a lot in the VA Class. I found out that there are a lot of resources that help VAs. I signed up for one in August and in November my computer crashed completely -- no hope for resurrection. Because I had it, I was able to retrieve my information. It is a great blessing.

"Another thing that was great about the VA class was having the communication with other VA class members to help solve problems. Not having to find the solutions on my own was a huge help. You don't have to be alone in this process."

Molly Loup
Wilmot, South Dakota

"I am SO thankful I found Rhea Perry's program for VAs! I am now working for a client out of Canada, and expect another client to be added in the very near future.

"Never would I have imagined I'd be doing the things I'm doing! I get so excited when I can not only put into practice the things I've already learned through the VA course, but add to my knowledge base all the new things I continue to learn.

"I want to thank both Rhea and Denise for all their knowledge, help, tips, thoughts and instruction. Thanks for this great opportunity in my life!"

Connie Sheppard
West Milton, Ohio

"Denise, I can't say thank you enough for equipping me with the resources that you have to begin my home based VA business. I had searched for several years for someone that I could trust to train and support me through this process and I was so thankful when I found your group.

"As I began to share with others about my online training, I was approached with a job opportunity to work for a client - even before I had finished my last training session! The most important plus is the wonderful people that I have met and continue to work along side as support. Its just like an extended family!"

Gale Belk
Starkville, Mississippi

"Denise, Thank you for the great class! You have opened up a new door of opportunity and I am loving getting money in my PayPal account every week! The support of others in the class is invaluable and ongoing.

"I have a lot of jealous friends waiting for you to offer the class again."

Kathy Coons
Crossville, Tennessee

"Denise Lindvall is a great teacher. Her Virtual Assistant class was very well organized and interesting. I learned many skills that I can apply to my own businesses as well as help my client's with their businesses.

"I appreciate all the helpful tools that she introduced to the class plus she has set up a great support system so the class members can keep in touch with her as well as the other students. Thanks, Denise. Great job!"
