I want to make friends!
Hi everybody! I'm Nikki. I have been a VA since May of 2008. I recently revamped my biz with a new name and a new purpose. I added lifestyle management for home-based moms to the plate. As a brand new VA, I made the mistake of not networking. I just sat at home shy and intimidated. That did not take me very far. So, this year I decided to meet and make as many friends and connections as I can for my own sanity. Well, here I am showing myself friendly and hoping to learn from others in this industry.

Welcome Nicki! I did the same thing you did, not network with other VA's and learned the same lessons you did. I joined this group about 2 weeks ago and can't get offline. This is a WONDERFUL forum and you can feel right at home asking and ansewering questions. Don't be shy!

Hi Nikki, this is a great place to network and 'meet' new friends. And if you want to find VAs who are local to you, just check out the Local Meetups section to see if someone has started up a group [if not, you might want to start one yourself! ]

Welcome to the community, it's nice to have you here!

Welcome! Great thinking - I LOVE LOVE networking, but haven't always networked in groups that have to do with my VA stuff, so now I have to find more groups to network in that have more to do with getting VA clients, possibly!

Looking forward to connecting with you,
Brandy
