Hi everyone,

Thanks for a great review of this book. My copy of this book is still on its way from Amazon. May I add as well that another book "Getting Business to Come to You" by Paul and Sara Edwards is a great reference for various marketing methods. It is a Do-It-Yourself guide to attracting business.

Best regards,

I decided to get this book from these reviews. I have a copy of Become a Highly Successful Sought After VA and loved this book.

I have just ordered my copy of the marketing book and cannot wait for it to come.

Hi,

I am reading this book and it suggests that I research my target market. Right now I have narrowed my target market down to real estate agents, consultants, and entrepreneurs. I am having problems finding information (demographics, geographics, etc) on these industries. Any suggestions on where I can go to do my market research?

Thanks.

During my research I came across this book and it has tons of useful information. I borrowed mine from the library and will either make copies of the pages that I think I'll need or just eventually buy the book. I like picking up the books from the library before actually buying them. I know this can't always be done so see the review for The Virtual Assistant's Guide to Marketing and a couple of others really help. I also picked up Virtual Assistant - THE SERIES which is also a must read for beginners.

Thanks for the information, it's wonderful to have such helpful people around.

I started experimenting with the copy for my upcoming website tonight. But now that I've read your review, I'll stop right there and set up copy out where I can see it and start from there. Thanks, Tammi!

I have this book a while now. I go through it mostly as a reference guide. I think it has a lot of useful information and a great addition to my other business and VA books. I recommend this book as well.
