VAnetworking Dreams of Meeting Oprah Virtually!

Most Virtual Assistants Agree: Oprah Winfrey Epitomizes the Modern Career Woman …

  • Sophisticated
  • Funny
  • Articulate
  • Stylish
  • Bold
  • Intelligent
  • Business Savvy …

Wait a second. What did you just say?

 

“Oprah Winfrey doesn’t have a full time Virtual Assistant?”

It was Oprah herself that said “Every one of us gets through the tough times because somebody is there, standing in the gap to close it for us.”

Well, Oprah, maybe it’s time to close the gap!

The Virtual Assistant Networking Association is Petitioning YOU, Oprah Winfrey,
To Accept ONE FULL YEAR of FREE Virtual Assistant services!

Yes, Tawnya Sutherland, founder of VAnetworking and internationally known Virtual Assistant, is THAT determined to raise awareness of this exciting career choice for women. A career choice that is taking over America, one business at a time.

 

What is a Virtual Assistant?

A Virtual Assistant (VA) is a business owner who provides professional support and other business related services to other businesses via phone, fax and Internet based technologies. Partnering with a VA reduces stress, protects cash flow, eliminates administrative hassles, and enables entrepreneurs to focus on the success they originally set out to achieve.

 

VAnetworking's Offer to Oprah Winfrey:

A Corporate Virtual Assistant Retainer Package from Tawnya Sutherland of Mediamage Business Solutions. The package includes 40 hours per month of any of the services currently offered by Tawnya for 1 year. That’s a $45,600 value!
Oprah, to accept Tawnya’s offer, call her today at 604-542-9664.

 

Who is Tawnya Sutherland and Why Should Oprah Hire Her?

Tawnya got her start as an administrative Virtual Assistant in 1997. Now a Certified Internet Marketing Specialist and Business Strategist, Tawnya enjoys a full-time roster of clients plus a long waiting list of prospects eager to tap her expertise and make their own online ventures profitable. Tawnya also founded the world's largest network for Virtual Assistants, created the Virtual Business Startup System, and most recently launched her own VA Talk Show. Tawnya is a respected authority in the Virtual Assistant industry.

Message from Tawnya Sutherland …

Oprah, like you, I had to work very hard for my success. And the journey has humbled me greatly. In 1996 I suddenly found myself a single mom of 3 young children. I was 3,000 miles away from friends and family and had no emotional support. Worse, I had no job. And it had been years since I worked in my profession as a legal secretary. If I was going to be able to feed and shelter my children—to be able to care for them as the mother they had always relied on—I had to think and act quickly.

Drawing on my administrative background, I decided that offering my skills virtually may be the answer.

Turns out it was more than the answer. Choosing to become a Virtual Assistant led me through a series of choices that created the incredible lifestyle—and income—I, along with my family, enjoy today here in beautiful White Rock, British Columbia.

The only hard part of being a VA is lack of “water cooler” time. You know, the bits of conversation throughout the day with friends and colleagues whom you can relate to, both professionally and personally. Sometimes you just want to talk shop. And other times (often times!) you really wish there was someone you could chat with about the trials and tribulations of being a working Mom. Not to mention I really had no one to mentor me or even bounce ideas off of.

Hence the startup of the Virtual Assistant Networking Association in 2003. This was my way of filling the void I knew other VAs like me were experiencing. It also just felt good to reach out to other working mothers worldwide and give them hope, advice, a dream, critical business information I wish I’d had when I started, and most of all, companionship. Now I wake up every morning eager to keep giving back to the industry that has given me so much.

I have a 6 month waiting list of hopefuls waiting to get “client” status. Oprah, you don't have to wait, not just because you’re “Oprah Winfrey” either. But because you are the woman who can show women from all walks of life the possibilities that lie within them. Virtual Assistance is here to stay. Isn’t it time we let the world know?

 

Everyone is Asking About Virtual Assistance – And VAnetworking Has the Answers

The media is catching on to all things virtual, but Virtual Assistants in particular are drawing more and more attention from the big guns. In fact, Tawnya has been asked to advise various media reps about Virtual Assistance and what this exciting new career choice entails.

So, Tawnya set up The Media's Virtual Assistant Survey ~ The Who, What, When, Where, Why and How. Here, media organizations can learn valuable and interesting statistics and facts about Virtual Assistants.

Although Virtual Assistants have been around for over 10 years, the advent of the Internet and the specialized services that VAs bring to their clients have made corporate America sit up and take notice. Virtual Assistance are entering the mainstream! Media attention includes:

Oprah, help us bring more awareness to Virtual Assistants worldwide. Meet with us virtually, please?

Recently at VAnetworking, we asked some Virtual Assistants and their clients what they would love to tell Oprah about virtual assistance to help the public know more about this exciting and new career.
