FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE


Expert Says “Virtual Assistants” Save Small Business and Environment

Charleston, W.Va. – With small business and associations struggling to make ends meet, as well as remain environmentally conscious, virtually killing two birds with one stone would make even the busiest entrepreneur take notice.

Robin A. Holstein, president of Robin’s Desktop LLC, says virtual administrative support service providers are gaining popularity and credibility world-wide.

“Times are tough. Small businesses and associations must produce more with less. Virtual assistants are there when you need them.”

Entrepreneur magazine’s online version knows the value virtual assistants provide entrepreneurs and small business owners. A quick key-word search conjures more than 10 pages of articles. A similar search on Google will provide over six million hits.

“The environmental benefits,” Holstein continues, “are pretty evident. Virtual administrative service providers are not commuting to your office. Business owners are not buying equipment, using energy, or killing as many trees. They are being supported by means of the Internet.”

Using a custom mix of software and hardware, these small business owners provide specialty administrative support in real estate, legal, medical, or bookkeeping niches or a broader, more generalized offering to business around the world.

“A small business in Germany or Japan can have support from an assistant in West Virginia. How cool is that?”

Interview requests for Robin A. Holstein should be directed to: info@robinsdesktop.com – media can also reach Robin’s Desktop LLC at 304-546-4668 or http://robinsdesktop.com.

Thanks you ladies!

I'm not expecting this "one" press release to be a magic bullet. I'm hoping it will be the start of several that will help me establish myself as an expert in my general community.

Most of you know you have to take a multi-level approach to marketing. I have a standing print ad with a local, weekly business newspaper, I'm selecting potential clients and targeting mailings. I'm also working on some video/podcasts (again) I hope to get posted.

This is just one more piece.
