This is a fantastic book! When I first opened my biz it was my Bible. I carried it around with me and followed all of the advice to the letter. Once I became established I passed it on to a woman I met at KMart who needed to start a home biz. I hope it helped her 1/2 as much as it did me!

I bought this book a few months ago but never got around to reading it. Looks like I need to pull it out and get started. Thanks for the review!

This is a book that I read years ago but wasn't in position to start my business. After reading all of the good reviews, I think I'm going to pick it up again and read it. I found it in my bedside bookcase. Thanks!

I just received my copy of this book along with the "Virtual Assistant Manual for Moms" book. I can't wait to read both of them! Based on this review, it sounds like just what I need to get up and running.

I have seen this book but was on the fence to read it. I think now I may give it a read

Ok, I'm convinced; I am buying the book! Sounds like a must have in the reference library.

The 2-Second Commute was my first book to start my VA business. I think it is full of great ideas and advice. It can help you in every step of the way. I also keep on going back to it. I would recommend it to everyone.

I have the book. It is my bible to the Virtual Assistant world. I am always going back and re reading sections of the book and it has guided me step by step.

I have heard of this book but I have never read it. It is certainly helpful to read everyone's thoughts! Best to you all

Thanks for the review. I'm looking forward to reading this and most importantly, improving my "elevator speech."

I have had this book for a little over a year and it is definitely a keeper. Every few weeks or so I find myself rereading some of the pages for helpful hints and tips. Now, if I could just find something sort of like a continuation of this book....

I just purchased the book and I am having a hard time getting into it. Is this more of a reference type book or do you suggest reading it from cover to cover?

Hi Stephanie,

Personally, I read it cover to cover, and that seemed to work well for me. Best wishes!
