Hello My name is Sharon and I am very excited about this site. What made me seek out VA opportunities is an email that I received a few days ago. After checking it out, it appeared to be a scam. However, I thought why not VA, I have the experience and equipment right at home. Now, I am looking for real VA opportunities :-)

Hi Sharon,

Hi! I stumbled upon virtual assistance by accident myself, although I believe it was more an instance of serendipity than an accident!

This forum is a weath of information.

Welcome - glad you found us! Be sure and read past posts and check the getting started areas of the forum, then ask questions as needed

Hi Sharon,
Glad you found us, welcome!
It's too bad there are so many scams out there, it really frustrates the industry - but it's good that you saw it for what it was.

Have you started brainstorming which services you'll offer, who you'll offer them to, etc.?

Looking forward to hearing further from you!
