 What is a Virtual Assistant?
A Virtual Assistant (VA) is a term used to describe Virtual PAs and Secretaries. VAs are experienced professionals who work with a variety of different clients, helping them to run their business remotely via the internet.
VAs typically work from home and have a fully equipped office with Broadband Internet and a PC, printer, telephone/fax machine. Most use the telephone (often over the internet) and email to communicate with clients. Others are more sophisticated and use websites, e-collaboration tools and even mobile technology to support their clients, wherever they are working from.
Those that make best use of the latest information and communication technology are able to support clients regardless of mobility or geographic boundaries. Technology, coupled with professional experience, enables VAs to operate effectively as part of a client’s team - only with more than one client at a time - seamlessly and efficiently.
