Hi there! I am new to this too. I am currently taking classes and am just getting brave enough to post in the forms! How far along are you with your business? Do you have a niche? I'm sure I could ask a million more questions! I am so interested in how others are launching their businesses.

Hi,
Congratulations on you new business venture. I have been doing a lot of social marketing stuff, but I would like to get into some bookkeeping. That's what I have trained for. It is nice to have a little variety.

To OWL VA, I just started working on my business a few months back. I finally finished the website and posted a few ads hoping I would get noticed. What type of classes are you taking?

Welcome, from another newbie!
I haven't gotten any ads placed yet, hopefully soon. Still working on my website. Hoping soon to be 'open for business'.

You'll find so much great info here. Good luck!

I just got my associates degree in medical administrative assistant concentration. I'm starting to realize that I might need to go take a course on virtual assistance, but I'm not sure if I can handle school again and there is not a school around here that offer that type of course. I know what I'm doing when it comes to administrative work. I taught myself how to do all the stuff I know and pretty much just went to school for the piece of paper saying I know what I'm doing. Sorry not trying to complain. My husband is pushing to go for this since I've done years of research on this and this is really what I want to do.

Welcome, the resources on this site are a tremendous help and I always look at the others websites when asked and get great advice from some of them. This forum is really great and if you look back through older posts you will find a lot of information.
