The Virtual Assistance Industry is experiencing explosive growth. We are noticing that large numbers of people on social networking sites such as Facebook, LinkedIn and Twitter are self-identifying themselves as virtual assistants, but are they really?

If you are new to this very exciting industry I would love to hear how you identify your core competencies and strengths. Where do you see yourself in this industry? Are you providing support that is primarily administrative in nature or are you a highly technically competent, highly sought-after, highly paid and frequently referred virtual assistant who works in many, many online systems for yourself and your clients?

Are you a social media marketing maven or just barely scratching the surface? I contend that you can’t do for your clients what you don’t do for yourself!

Have you identified your core competencies, skill levels and the niche that you are excited to create your business in? Do you get excited about working with authors, coaches, online entrepreneurs? Virtual Assistance University exists to help you build and grow your virtual assistance practice. We are here to help and we want to hear from you!

You are also invited to join us at the FREE Virtual Assistance Industry Community where you can socialize and network with other entrepreneurs who are either new to this industry or are very successful in their own practices and who are very willing to share advice and resources.
