Many may not be aware of this book I wrote a few years ago about “How to become a Virtual Assistant“.
When I first began my business there were very few people you could ask for information. What I was doing was new to the business world so I couldn’t get advice from someone who had already ‘been there, done that’. I had to break new ground.
I put this experience and my knowledge into a book to help new VAs who ask the same questions. Things like:
- How to get started
- Skills and Services
- What to charge
- Where do the clients come from
- Tools and promotions, and so on.
And just to ensure that I wasn’t working on my memory alone, I actually interviewed many people to find out what questions were relevant to their needs in starting out.

Kathy, I have a bachelor’s degree and a recent master’s degree in management focusing on managing in a virtual environment as well as 30 years of experience in the medical transcription industry. I’ve been a business owner, manager, director,editor of 7 books and author and have worked in a virtual environment for over 20 years. Transcription has become a comodity and I’m looking for a new avenue to use my skills. I accustomed to working with technology and communicating with people in the virtual environment and love doing it. While my fortes are writing and dealing with physicians, I also have experience in real estate. In any event, where do I go to find out if I have what it takes to be a successful VA? Thank you!
