I found out about VAF from a virtual assistant in a nearby city, who suggested that it would be a good resource for letting other local VAs know about the meet-ups I was organizing. I was quite pleased to learn about it, especially since it has allowed me to connect with several local colleagues that I had not seen elsewhere.

Even more than that, it has given me access to a wealth of information. When I have a question, I know I can post it on VAF and receive an answer from one or more of the friendly members, and every time I visit, I learn about a helpful resource to help me in my business. I don't know of any other site that offers so much, including access to RFPs, without charging a fee, and because I get so much out of it, I'm always happy to support the other members by sharing my own knowledge whenever I can.

I wish VAF had been around when I was new in the field, because I'm sure it would have been a huge asset in getting my business off the ground!
