It wouldn't really matter what results a study like that came up with because in my experience at least half of my most active clients aren't exactly what you would consider traditional 'businesses' - for instance, who would guess that an actor would need a VA? Or a dance choreographer? But they do! __________________ Create a welcome packet for new clients with this guide and free templates! (Available in PDF and Kindle versions)

Almost half of them have out -of-home offices with 10+ employees yet can't get to a certain project so they contract me. I guess anyone is a potential client. __________________ Bette Creek http://bettecreek.blogspot.com/ www.ashbusinessservices.com
