Hello all. I have been in the industry of personal assistant and administrative assistant for over 8 years. The company I work for is pretty much part time and I'm looking to become a VA to bring in additional income. I like the flexible schedule I have with my current job and that makes it easier to be a VA for someone. Just trying to start out and get my feet wet. It seems hard to land your first job when your so green to everyone.

I'm sure it will get easier though. Just wanted to say hi to everyone.

Hi Everyone,

I am new to virtual assistant and I am hoping that someone can take me under their wings and help me out with finding a job. I just got certified with Arise ACP 101 but the opportunities they have cost and I was hoping if someone is in the same boat as me. Thanks again everyone

Hi to both of you,

I'm new too, I've already received some really good advice from fellow VA's on this forum.

Good luck!

Welcome to the board! In the short time that I've been here, I've found it to be a wonderful source of information and insight on the business!

Hi to both of you,

Welcome to the VAF! If you want to start getting jobs I would suggest reading the Marketing & Networking section. Do you have a website as a virtual presence is vital.

Good luck with your businesses.

Welcome, it's great to have you here! You'll learn so much from this forum so have fun exploring and enjoy the learning process.

Thanks for the great tips. I will check out the Marketing and Networking section. That may help me ith some questions I had in that area. I do not have a website as of yet but working on it. Still new to it all so not sure how to get it going. Thanks for the tips again.

Hi there and welcome!
There's an entire section of topics devoted to building and maintaining websites here, so be sure to check that out as well.
Looking forward to chatting with you further
