I Love Hearing About the Success of my Colleagues!
I really love hearing about the success of my colleagues.
As most of you know, I am a mentor and a virtual assistant. I have to say that I am so blessed to be part of the VA industry. It’s been amazing to be able to do what I love to do – and make money at it. Most of the time, I don’t feel like I’m even working because my days are filled with ideal clients and work that I love. And the VA industry has been very good to me. My colleagues are very professional and love learning new things. Because of their thirst for knowledge, I too have been able to learn. Not only is there a vast array of education for virtual assistants available, but my peers love to share their knowledge. So things that my fellow VAs learn is being passed on to me. Because of this, I feel a deep gratitude for my colleagues. And I try to return the favor by sharing as much information as I can – and in giving plugs for them as often as I can.
That’s one way that blogs come into play. I love writing and it’s great to be able to write about the accomplishments of those I admire. I not only (hopefully) gain a larger following, but I am able to introduce my followers to new people they may not know.
Today I want to talk about some really exciting news from one of my newest VA friends, Alyssa Gregory. Her company is Avertua, LLC and she is an amazing VA. She does a lot of training and has real passion for other virtual assistants and how they can be their best. So I was really happy when Alyssa told us she had been chosen as the Small Business Information Guide on About.com.
About.com is one of the largest producers of original content on the Web. This will be a great opportunity for Alyssa to continue her passions of writing, sharing and learning about small business. She will also use it to plug virtual assistance whenever appropriate. And trust me, when an expert like Alyssa uses the opportunity to discuss our industry, it’s a great opportunity for all virtual assistants.
So – to Alyssa – congratulations! You are going to be great as a new addition to About.com. You are an amazing writer and they will be happy they chose you. I am proud to call you friend! For those of you who don’t know Alyssa, take some time to read about her and stop at her website to say hello. You will be glad you did.
