Win a virtual assistant for 2008

How would you use a virtual assistant to grow your business or improve your personal life?

Answer that question and you have the chance to live your answer. Elance, the freelancers-for-hire site, is giving away $5,000 worth of a virtual assistant’s time in 2008.

I’ve written about VAs before, in Virtual Assistants: Support without the Staff and in a Mediation Marketing Resources Roundup mention of Home Office Warrior’s Top 100 Ways a Home Office Warrior Can Utilize a Virtual Assistant. If you’re new to the idea of VAs, those articles are good resources for helping you decide how you could use a VA to grow your mediation business.

My VA, Krishna, has helped me with the following just in the last two months:

• Researching the best teleconferencing services for group work with my clients.
• Assisting with preparation of my book promotion plan.
• Formatting the workbook that I’ll be giving away to folks who purchase my book.
• Web research into a few corporate clients I’m working to connect with.
• Updating my press kit.
