Vickie Turley - Virtual Assistant

Vickie Turley

My name is Vickie Turley and I am the founder and owner of
A Balanced Alternative. I live in Western Kentucky with my husband, Rocky, and my "baby", Toot (half Yorkie, half Maltese). Rocky and I have four grown boys - Cory, Patrick, Chris and Ryan. Needless to say, it's been a wild ride!

My beginning in the "virtual" world came about after spending more than 25 years in the outside workforce. Most of my titles included Administrative Assistant or Executive Secretary. I was a highly sought-after employee and continuously expanded my fields of knowledge by taking training courses, attending seminars and keeping up-to-date on the latest industry trends and technologies. Throughout the years, I've maintained close friendships with many past employers. In 2005, after a lengthy health problem, I decided to find a way to continue to work while tending to my personal well-being at the same time. I happened upon the term "virtual assistant" and have never looked back.

balanced scale In 2007, I had the opportunity to redefine my goals and aspirations. I felt I needed to focus more on my unique talents and gifts and, after many months of thinking, planning, and researching, decided to change my company name and niche. As Elite Virtual Assistants, I enjoyed working with numerous clients, concentrating my efforts in the transcription field. Now, as founder of A Balanced Alternative as well as the co-owner/founder of The VA Blueprint with Suzanne Evans, I am able to provide a more rounded experience to each client by incorporating my supportive and uplifting spirit in all I do.

I hope you like my new look. To get a more detailed sense of how I work and what solutions I can provide to you, please request a Complimentary Consultation. I appreciate your taking the time to get to know me and look forward to getting to know you!
