Default Re: How important do you think it is to include "Virtual" in your business name ......
I had a hard time deciding on a name as well. Since I picked my name I have come to realize that I maybe should have include Virtual Assistant instead of VA. I have had several enquires as to what I did for VA's (Veterans was the first thought they have). Thanks to Bev at Red Deer College during the "Wear you Bathrobe to Work" campaign this year I used her ideas to create a press release for the local paper that helped the readers know more about what a VA is.
So, yes, using Virtual is a good idea but as people become familiar with the term VA it will be less necessary.
