Virtual Assistant – I am Thinking About Hiring One

I like the concept on the new rich of The 4-hour Workweek’s author Timothy Ferriss.

The premise is simple – you can live anywhere you want, do whatever you want, and work whenever you want – principally by subcontracting or outsourcing your life – that is, trusting your workloads to virtual assistants and other types of ‘online employees’ and live your life more productively.

I’m thinking about hiring a virtual assistant to help me deal with my growing online business, because at the moment I stuck to my laptop for hours and started to think that a small change would make my life much, much easier. Just like the 80/20 Principle – In my case, doing the most productive things with minimal effort.

Any suggestions or anyone would suggest me someone who is capable, as well as trusted and accountable?

    hi… i just happen to find your blog when searching to find any virtual assistant job. i’ve been thinking to become virtual assistant since last year but no luck so far. i’m a fulltime housewife since last year. i used to worked to a multi-national company but quit last year because i prefer to work from home. i was an administrative-assistant but then promoted as analyst in planning & business development dept. i’ve worked with expat for 14 years… so, if you think i can help you with your work, please do let me know.
    cheers, tiwi

  • Hi Ivan, I am a virtual assistant and network with many other virtual assistants. A great place to start your search for a VA is at VAnetworking.com or simply send me a note and if I am unable to assist you directly I am certain someone in my network would be able to… I look forward to learning more about you and your business. Good luck.
