THE REVOLUTION IS HERE!!

Are you a Virtual Assistant ready to make 2008 your best year yet?

Are you ready to revolutionize the way your run your Virtual Assistant business?

Do you want to learn what works, what doesn’t work and how you can improve?

Then you need to read this…

We know how hard you’ve worked to get your Virtual Assistant business up and running. You’ve spent countless hours researching, gathering information and putting all the pieces into place.

Perhaps you gave it a trial run while working full-time or are just testing the waters.

You did your homework on choosing a business name, went and registered your business, set up a checking account and have all of the proper forms when those clients start rolling in.

You’ve joined every Virtual Assistant networking group that you can find hoping to glean the best information, learn from past mistakes and store important nuggets for when you encounter the same issues.

You’ve gotten your website up and running. You've spent countless hours or invested money to get the site designed perfectly.

You hang up the open shingle and you wait.

Perhaps you’ve had some clients come or maybe you’re still waiting for that first client.

Maybe you’re still in those planning stages and not ready to hang your open sign. Where are you stuck? The business plan? The business name? The services that you’re going to offer? The professional organizations that you’re going to join?

Regardless of where you are in your journey to financial freedom via your Virtual Assistant business, we’re here to help.

We are two Virtual Assistants who have been right where you are. We did that research. We started while working full time. We struggled with business names and how to set up our offices. We made mistakes but we also made triumphs.

We went from marketing to anyone with a pulse and a checkbook to defining our target market and now run successful, profitable Virtual Assistant businesses.

And now we want to help you do the same.

So gals, how are you going to help me?

Quite simply, we want to coach you to success. We want to help you revolutionize the way you do business whether that’s setting up your business, marketing it, or dealing with clients.

There’s only so much help you can offer on message boards with hundreds, sometimes thousands, of members. There’s only so much you can learn from a book. So what do you do?

What is the Virtual Assistant Revolution?

Simply put, the Virtual Assistant Revolution is a private mentoring forum created specifically for Virtual Assistants by Virtual Assistants. You will learn from Virtual Assistants who walk the walk and talk the talk.

The Virtual Assistant Revolution is a wealth of knowledge from tips in getting started to marketing your business to firing a client. It’s no holds barred, if you want to talk about it, we’ll talk about it.

No, we’re not fooling around. We’re serious about our businesses, and we’re serious about helping you with yours.

Here’s what you’ll get just for being a member:

Access to a members only forum where you can ask whatever you want and get honest answers
Access to some of the best "experts" in the industry. Currently, we have members who excel is web design, graphic design, writing and editing, bookkeeping, Microsoft products, marketing, real estate and more! We also have eight published authors on hand!
Access to various resources that would cost upwards of $50 each elsewhere
2 monthly teleclasses dealing with the issues that you need help with – archived so that you can go back and listen to if you miss them or need further clarification
Tips and tricks of the industry
Our secrets on how we do business and how we have achieved success
Personalized attention that you can’t get on a public board
Informational products that you’ll get for free before they go on sale to the general public with new resources added monthly
Access to reports and courses that you won’t find anywhere else
Periodic kicks in the rump to keep you going
Discounts on services such as editing, blog installations, VATraining.com, webhosting, and more!
And more…so much more…

We've tallied up all the resources inside and right now it comes to more than $1000 and more will be added every month! We didn't even put a price on the forum or the calls that we'll have every month! There's so much that you'll be overwhelmed when you walk through those doors...

That’s okay.

We’ll help you get started and lead you in the right directions.

Here’s what you won’t get…

Lies...we’re going to tell you what we honestly think when you ask for our opinion. If what you’re doing isn’t working, we, as a community, will help you find a better way.
Hand holding...coaching and mentoring only works for those who want serious change. We can’t run your business for you, but what we can do is help you transform your business into what you want it to be. As with all coaching and mentoring groups, you get out of it what you put into it.

If you know us, you’ll know that we want you to succeed and be the best you can be. We’re honest with you. Our top priority is making both you and your business shine. If you're not successful, we're not successful.

Here’s who we’re looking for…

Virtual Assistants who are dedicated to achieving success with their business. We’re not looking for those that are dabbling in it. We want serious business owners or those that are serious about starting their own business.
Active participants. Don’t join and lurk. Contribute. You’d be surprised at what you know.
Virtual Assistants who are willing to learn with an open mind. Don’t knock it until you try it.

From 0 to 60 billable hours in 45 days!

I was among the first to sign up for a Virtual Assistant Revolution membership and I am sincerely glad that I did. I started researching the VA industry in March of this year so the timing was perfect for me with 'The Rev' starting in April.

When I joined, I had a business name and was working on my business plan. I was planning to create my own logo in MS Word and 'just use a website template'. That easy. Well, I quickly realized that was just not going to cut it! I acquired a fellow 'Revver' to design my logo, business cards and website giving me a unique, professional visual brand.

I launched my business on June 1st and two months later I have one forty hour and one twenty hour retainer client. Both of these individuals are real estate agents. I have exceeded my year end goal of forty billable hours per month within sixty days of 'hanging my shingle'. I am certain that if I hadn't joined the Revolution this would not have happened.

Since becoming 'Revolutionized' I have leapt out of my comfort zone and joined my local Chamber of Commerce and my local Business Women's Association.

I wrote a press release which was tweaked and perfected by another VAR member, submitted to two local papers and is ready to be published any day now by both.

Utilizing one of the free downloads to prepare a proper proposal I have responded to a couple of RFPs and received a call back from one.

I discovered VA Training through the Revolution, took the program and I can't say how this has changed me and my business. I now have a business coach who is going to help bring me straight to the top.

I learned that I really needed to choose a target market. Having experience in (and a love for) the real estate industry it should have been a no-brainer for me, but without 'The Rev' I don't know if I ever would have chosen a target. I would still be wasting time and money trying to market to anyone and everyone with no single focus.

I simply would not be where I am if it weren't for this amazing group of professionals. There is such a wealth of information available among the members, I feel like I have my own personal tech support person, editor, graphic artist, marketing professionals and cheerleaders helping me through this endeavor.

I can't say enough about the Virtual Assistant Revolution. Within the forum, every single question posted is answered honestly and with tact. My eyes are open, I am gaining more confidence every day and I am unstoppable.

Get to the point! How much is this going to cost?

We know that it can be tough to start a business when you’ve got so many other financial commitments. Like we said before, we’ve been there. Money isn’t always flowing, but if you don’t realize that you need to invest into your business, you’re not going to make it. That’s a fact. Part of your budget needs to be education, and you can’t wait for education until you start getting clients.

Because we know not everyone can afford a personal coach or an expensive start up system, we’ve priced the Virtual Assistant Revolution reasonably. For less than $1 per day you can have access to the knowledge of two very successful Virtual Assistants as well as the synergy of working with other Virtual Assistants who view their business the same way you do.

In the Virtual Assistant Revolution we all want to succeed. We are serious about our businesses.

Are you serious about your business? Are you willing to sacrifice dinner out once a month to invest into your business? That's all it will cost... just $25 a month.

From 4 to 11 clients in 3 months!

When I joined the Revolution at the end of May this year (2006) I had absolutely no focus or direction with my VA practice. I had a vision, but no idea on how to get there. I knew that I needed something to ground me and help me to take my VA business in the direction I wanted, but didn’t know what that something was.

One night I was researching training and coaching opportunities for VAs when I came across the VA Revolution site. I thought that I would try it out for one month; for the low fee I could at least download some resources that would cover my costs. Since joining I haven’t looked back and don’t think twice about paying the monthly fee. I now have a focus for my business, have redefined my target market, and have grown my business from 4 clients to 11 clients.

Not only that, but I have made connections with many others who have been there and are struggling with the same things I do daily. We have become a close knit family that shares ideas, insights and resources that might not be shared any other place. No where else will you find an expert in marketing, coaching, bookkeeping, graphic design, real estate, grammar, web design and open source programs (among others) that is willing to share their expertise and experiences so openly. Not only have I found the focus and direction I was looking for, but I have also made several long-lasting friendships.

The Virtual Assistant Revolution is here.

We want you to be a part of it.

We’re not going to bribe you to sign up for the VA Revolution. You’re either serious about your business or you’re not. It’s just that simple.

That’s how confident we are about what we’re offering.

When I first heard about the VA Revolution, I hesitated to join. Not necessarily because there was a monthly fee, but because I wondered what they could actually really offer on a continual basis for the money to help my business. The thing that I kept coming back to was the fact that I would be amongst a small group of people who were serious about launching or growing their business, not just thinking about it. I take my business seriously and I only surround myself with innovative professionals with a positive influences. My money could not be more well spent considering that I not only get the camaraderie of fellow VAs, I get to network, attend monthly teleclasses, receive phenomenal advice from seasoned VAs, and have access to a wealth of information. I've been a member for almost 2 months and I cannot keep up with the amount of information and items added to the Revolution almost daily. It has been a continuous evolution based on member feedback and suggestions.

If you are ready to learn how to make your VA practice stand out, I highly recommend joining the VA Revolution today.
