Hi everyone I joined today.
I have two sites running at the moment and Im hoping to pick up some useful tips.
My new site is http://www.strictlyadmin.co.uk and is homebased secretarial work and this is really the one that I have joined here for. I will be looking for useful tips and help on how to promote this as well as how to make it a success.
My other site has been running for a year now and is http://www.mumszone.co.uk. This is a parenting site and non-profit however its been great to watch it grow and you never know maybe in a couple of years it might be worth something!
Look forward to getting to know you all and to picking up some handy tips.
Toni :D

Hello Toni,
Welcome to the forum. I actually found your MumsZone site the other day and bookmarked, as I was interested in a reciprocal link.
You should find lots of helpful advice and people on this forum, so hope to see you around.

Hi Toni,
Welcome to the forums, I think VA services are a wonderful thing, much needed by us sometimes. Will keep you in mind.
Good luck, and I hope you gain many contacts here.
Regards…
Shelley.

Toni,
To make up for the lack of attention we gave you, I spent a few minutes editing the text on your home page. In general, I have the following comments (which are meant to be constructive :)):
- Too many words are bold. Use bold to draw attention to your main point only.
- The order of the bullets is rather random, and there are too many of them.
- The paragraph contains several grammatical errors. Given the service you are providing, you need to correct these.
Here's my suggestion...
*******************
- Are you a small business without a regular staff?
- Do you need inexpensive administrative help?
- Do you have too much work for your employees to handle?
- Do you need help outside of regular work hours?
If you answered yes to any of these questions, then you need a virtual assistant - and Strictly Admin can help. Based in the UK, we provide cost-effective typing and word processing services to individuals and to small businesses. Why pay for office staff and space when you don’t have to?
*******************
If I had more time, I would go into more depth. For example, you need to point out what makes you different from your competition - rapid turn-around? working odd hours? telephone access? "Based in the UK" may be too general. I think the point you are really making is that you can support businesses located anywhere in the country that have Internet access.
I hope these comments help.

Hello again Toni :lol:
I meant to mention before that I also have a VA business, but have put it on the back burner in order to work on Bitsnstuff. I found that registering my business with different VA organisations really helped to get the name out and get client enquiries. This is a good one:-
http://www.allianceofukvirtualassistants.org.uk/
They also have a chat room which is very useful for VA/business service support type questions and also to offload work if you get snowed under.
Hope that helps.
Kate.
