Hi from York, North Yoks, England
I'm just starting out and what a learning curve! Feel as though my head is about to pop. Thank goodness for sites like this with such a feeling of support and camararderie. All the best to my fellow VAs. Alison

Re: Hi from York, North Yoks, England
Hi Alison,
Welcome to the forum - I'm fairly new, myself.
Don't worry about feeling overwhelmed with information, we've all been there and you'll find there is always still so much more to learn. It's one of the aspects of this industry that I'm loving - it is never dull!
Like you said, the camaraderie among fellow VAs is incredible and it makes all the difference when you find such a warm, supportive environment such as this forum.
I like you business name, by the way. Wishing you the best of success!

Re: Hi from York, North Yoks, England
Hi Alison and welcome to the forum.
Whereabouts in North Yorks are you? I'm in West Yorks. Perhaps we can help support each other.
I'm a new VA, looking for my first client and trying to sort out a website etc

Re: Hi from York, North Yoks, England
You can't be far from me then Alison. I'm based in East Leeds, so getting to York takes me about 20 mins

Re: Hi from York, North Yoks, England
I'm another one in Leeds (though I'm in Bramley, West Leeds). I'm VERY new (website launched on Monday!) and off to York on Friday for a VA-meetup.

Re: Hi from York, North Yoks, England
It looks like there are quite a few Yorkshire based folk on here now. How exciting.
Tracey - can I ask what your niche is? I like to know what others are offering so that if I do get a client asking for something I do not do, I have contacts I can refer to.

Re: Hi from York, North Yorks, England
Hi Tracy
I have a dream-niche at the minute more than an actual one - I'd love to be working with sustainable / green companies to enable them to help save the world! Like I say, it's more of a dream than a reality and I'm obviously not wanting to be too elitist at the start and turn down potential clients because they don't use recycled paper etc.,.
I've got experience in education and environment and construction backgrounds and I'm very good with microsoft office, proofreading and document / report formatting and have experience with reception work, marketing and travel / accommodation booking.
I'm happy to sub-contract to other VAs if they need support too (though I've not worked out where to put that on my website - maybe in FAQs).
