Hi Barbara. Welcome, you will find this site soooo informative.

I'm in Central Alberta, taking VA Certificate program at Red Deer College. So I am still in the planning stage also.

Hi Barbara,

Welcome to VAForums. I'm new here as well and have found that there are a lot of things I still need to do. I've been in business since 2005 and provide administrative support, specifically transcription services and database management.

Best wishes for success.

Thank you all for the warm welcome!
Yes, I am learning quite a bit from lurking here in the forums. Right now I'm working on a draft business plan so that I can get all these ideas out of my head and down on paper in some sort of structured way.

My problem is that because there is so much that I can do (except brain surgery of course - grin), that I have a hard time focusing on anything specific.
I find it's SO easy to figure out what I don't like or want to do and it's much more challenging to narrow it down to what I like and want to do.

Does that happen to you too?

All I know for sure is that I absolutely don't want to do any bookkeeping - yech! But I would like to find another VA who does and one with whom I can pair up with. That's so when I encounter a client who wants that service I can send then to my trusted colleague who will take care of that aspect of their needs.

Do VAs make gentlewomen's agreements like this? I hope so because I believe that by supporting another entrepreneur it helps me too.

Anyway, I'm rambling... Thanks again for the welcomes!!!
Barbara
