There should be a comma after McCall. also before the quote. "As Jamie McCall, owner of Oregon Virtual Assistant, adds, “Virtual assistants are there to provide the business owners the opportunity to achieve..." I would probably write it this way. "Oregon Virtual Assistant owner Jamie McCall adds, "Virtual Assistants are there to provide...."

#9 (permalink)   11-05-2009 Karen Roth Ridder New Member   Join Date: Apr 2009 Posts: 27 Re: Please review my press release Oh yeah, and the period should go inside the quote at the end of that quote. “Virtual assistants are there to provide the business owners the opportunity to achieve their goals by taking off the extra load from them.” I'm not sure, But I always capitalize "Internet" too. What do the rest of you think about that?
