Default What's A Guy Doing on the Virtual Assistant Forum?
Until I stumbled across this forum I had never really thought of myself as a Virtual Assistant, but as I provide the same services as all of you I guess I am. I am not sure how many males (specially old ones) there are on this forum, but I hope nobody minds me joining. I think I can add a lot to the discussions.

My business focuses on more marketing and direct mail services, but I provide a wide range of virtual services for clients including branding, email stationery, newspaper layouts, ad layouts, monthly newsletters, direct mail programs, promotional packaging, web site development and printed stationery. My clients range from Florida to California and Ontario to BC.

In addition I have Realtor clients where I provide virtually all of the services related to posting and marketing listings.

Looking forward to contributing and learning more.

Silly question, Marketing Guy! I don't believe there are any age or gender limitations on VAs.

Welcome to the group and hold on to your hat! If you spend the time reading through the threads, you will learn a great deal. The folks on this forum are knowledgable, supportive, openly sharing and entertaining.

Let's start with your name?

Don't be silly...I don't think any of us classified this site as a "Woman Only" site. All veiws are welcome and I personally like to hear different perspectives from all types of people.

Good luck on the site and I hope to chat with you soon.

Hi...I think it is just fine to have a male on this site...I guess it is sort of the reverse like when woman for years were struggling to move their way into the traditional "male" jobs...so I guess the males have the same sort of thing when it comes to the administrative world...but I personally know a few males who have made great admin assistants. My best to you.

Hi and welcome
We actually have a few 'guy' VAs here on the boards - you're more than welcome and are in great company regardless.

So are you planning to start marketing yourself as a virtual assistant now that you've made the connection?

The more men the merrier...anything that breaks down stereotypes gets an A+ in my book!
