When I formally started my business in 2008 I would have given anything for a comprehensive business blueprint to get me started. Actually I should have followed a blueprint but I just could not find the right resource for me. So I spent hours upon hours of research to find the information I needed only to realize that I had overlooked some of the important details of any emerging business. I was spending valuable time reworking my system or fixing that one step I forget in the process.
I was given a review copy of Become a Virtual Assistant – The Virtual Assistant Forums Guide to Success and was anxious to read this to see what additional tips I could glean for my virtual business. WOW, where was this book when I started.
Become a Virtual Assistant is 110 pages of information starting with “Do You Have What it Takes” through “The Good News and the Bad News”. Aspiring virtual workers will find this a well thought out and comprehensive blueprint for starting your own business. The book is set up with many exercises to help you determine if this is the business for you. And goes on to tackle many of the most asked questions of emerging virtual assistants such as Choosing a Legal Structure, Setting Your Rate, and Marketing and Networking..
Become a Virtual Assistant - is a bargain at $29 for all the information provided however they did not stop there. Included with the book is 22 FREE templates, worksheets and business documents along with 100 small business and virtual assistant industry resources. The bonus material alone would take you many hours and days to assemble.
Unlike many Virtual Assistant books and starter packages available, Become a Virtual Assistant – The Virtual Assistant Forums Guide to Success is the perfect resource to use in your journey as a virtual assistant and being in charge of your own destiny. If you are serious about starting your business this is a must have for your business book library.
Review by Lee Drozak of My Office Assistant. There is an affiiliate commissions program but I did not sign up until after I had wrote my review in full. I did receive a free copy of the ebook and resources in order to do this review but have received no other compensation.

Lee, thank you so much for taking the time to read and review the Become a Virtual Assistant eBook! In your review you talk about all of those hours and hours spent on research, and then still having to go back to work on those details that get missed when you don’t have a real blueprint to work from – that is exactly why we put this eBook together. It’s wonderful to know that we’ve accomplished what we set out to do. Thank you again for your rave review!
