Thanks for all the great advise everyone. Tess, I did run across that thread. This is one of the most informative forum I have came across. My problem now is too much info.. I am confused to what to do. Maybe someone can help. The problem is the more I read the more intimidated I feel. You all sound so articulate and intelligent, I wonder if I am cut out for this. Don't get me wrong I may not have a degree, however I have some hands on experience in a a few small office's. Dental, Ortho and Legal Assistant. But they were very small practices. The duties included basic administrative answering phones, scheduling appts, billing, acct receivable, Insurance etc... With no prior experience I fell into these postitions and learned, although these were no brainers for me to learn, I just don't know that I'm at your calliber of doing VA. And the problem I am having is all these sites I keep checking out sound to me they focus on helping you get your own VA business going. More a marketing plan. What I need are deatails and education help on duties to provide to a client. Do I have enough skills? Basic one's yeah I'm sure, but it sounds like it's the Companies that hire VA's are very large and expect top intelligence and experience. Don't get me wrong I am not using this as an excuse to not pursue this, I am willing to take classes, program whatever it takes to educate myself. Willing to start out answering phones (which I understand is something a VA is not crazy about doing, to restricted). I am that determined to work at home and make some income!! After re-reading this I hope I get some feedback. Thanks.
