Hi everyone,

I'm considering getting
How to Create a New Client Welcome Packet - A Virtual Assistant Forums Guide &
Become a Virtual Assistant - The Virtual Assistant Forums Guide to Success from the store here. Just wondering form your experiences, do I need both or does the Become a Virtual Assistant pretty much cover it all?

Thanks for you input!

I am currently reading: Become a Virtual Assistant - The Virtual Assistant Forums Guide to Success

I think it is a great place to start - it comes with a lot of forms and other helpful tools that I have not had a chance to look at yet. I definitely think it is valuable in helping us to start our VA business off on the right foot!

I have also purchased the Become a Virtual Assistant book and thought it was a fantastic resource. I am going to purchase the Welcome Packet Guide too. The book does not go over creating a Welcome Packet so to answer your question, no, the book doesn't cover it all, but like I said, it is still a fabulous resource. I have personally done LOTS of research and these two items are just pieces of the puzzle.

Thank you, Leslie! I will purchase the Welcome Packet book too! So much to learn and do - it is overwhelming and exciting at the same time.

I know, right? I must say, VA Forums has been my most valuable resource! I feel so grateful to all the other VAs who have come before me and shared their wealth of knowledge!

Hi, I took the Jumpstart Class which included these resources and I highly recommend them. I did a ton of research on my own, but it was so valuable to have all of this information in one place. What a timesaver!

I too purchased the "Become a Virtual Assistant" book (paperback)... and then regretted not getting the ebook version, which I think includes some additional forms? I will most likely also purchase the New Client Welcome Packet once I am closer to actually accepting new clients.

One step at a time.

Thanks for your response everyone. Patricia, I'd love to take the class but as affordable as it is, my budget is very low.

I'm seriously considering the Jumpstart course. I checked the page regarding it but does anyone know where I can get a more detailed outline of what the course covers?

AND...can I add????...Hang out on this forum as much as you can and READ the threads. There are so many facets to the Virtual Assistant business, and VAForum has a super active community here. You will learn a ton and it also help you work through questions you may have in your head about the various topics.
