Default Re: How did you come up with the name for your virtual assistance company?
I came up with administrative partners really while be a smart a** to my manager. When I was finishing business school, I was going to look for a position that was a bit beyond an executive assistant role, but since I had over 13 years of executive experience I couldn't get away from it. I was thinking of ways to make what I do sound like I was really more involved than I was so I asked HR if they could change my title to administrative partner. Basically they said I could call myself whatever I wanted on my resume but get over it, you're an executive assistant.

So I tucked it in the back of my mind and when I decided to be a VA, it was the first thing that came to mind. My only wish is that I would have named it Virtual Administrative Partner, so I am contemplating adding that to my business name.
