Great call. As a new VA, I love learning from those who have "been there" already. I grabbed a lot of great information. Thank you for posting.

This podcast/recording was fantastic. I could relate to being in India (before the internet really took off but I could see cafe's being the norm) and the idea that one could travel (eventually) as a VA sounds spectacular! And that with connecting with social media and such (and this was posted whaa 2008?!?). So much info but it's real life stories for "solo-entrepreneurship" that inspires me the most, I was wondering about those VA temp places and am so glad this forum encourages self sufficiency. Great talk!

Kara and Barbara,

Thanks so much for listening and taking the time to comment here. I know how pressed for time we can get so I really do always appreciate the time people spend that they really don't have to.

Sending you both hugs!

Michelle and Tess,

Thank you for this call. Don't know why I had not listened to your call. I always say, Tess, I just love the way you guys are so real. I like the way you put things across guys.Thank you. I just got the Become a VA book and that was a great investment I made because the information I am coming across would have taken me ages to find via Google. I am now a VA full time. I will not lie, it must be the scariest decision I have ever made. Nevertheless, I am so determined and things are coming together one day at a time.

Twenty47,

Good morning and thank you for the kind words. Tess' book is a fantastic resource! I've told her I wish it was available when I started out - things would have been different for me (at minimum my "five things I wish I had known" would be different)

Persistence and determination will keep you going towards your goal!
