You are an Internet Marketer! You are thinking about using the services of a Virtual Assistant. No way are you saying to yourself! I would love to use a VA services but I have only 3 hours a week to offer!

Well! There is hope!

Now, let’s look [...]]]> Small Is Beautiful…Even For A Virtual Assistant!

You are an Internet Marketer! You are thinking about using the services of a Virtual Assistant. No way are you saying to yourself! I would love to use a VA services but I have only 3 hours a week to offer!

Well! There is hope!

Now, let’s look at some examples!

You have a forum and would die having someone to look at it…2 times a day, 15 minutes each time! The VA will clean up any spam, move posts to the right topic and alert you on important matter. Well! Is is possible now!

Another example with forum: the PreSale topic! If there is a topic that should be watch like an eagle, this is the one! Often, too often, it’s Saturday or Sunday and nobody is there to answer. Really not the best tactic to attract new customers. A VA just watching this PreSale topic during the week-end will worth is price of gold!

I saw on the Warrior Forum, Internet Marketers wishing to use the services of a VA but skipping that option because they feel they have so few hours to offer! Don’t forget! A few hours to start with is the perfect way to test your future VA! Trust does not come as a package! It comes drop by drop!

What I Can Do For YOU

I have a 25 hours time slot available per week. Feel at ease to just take 2 or 3 hours! I am here to fit YOUR needs not mine! Just between you and me, it is also a nice way to avoid any kind of routine!

Will I fit Your Bill? That Is The Question?

How Hard / Easy Is It To Get In Touch?

This Skype ID is the one where I am most of the time online. Buzz me, chat, or call me! If I appear on line and I do not respond, just left me a message by chat. I will pick it up and call you back if this is what you want!

This ID is just for one use and one use only: to call me from Skype to my cellular in Costa Rica. Example, you can call me to just tell me to go on my computer because you want to talk to me! It goes without saying…there is no cost!

If there is a situation, an emergency I am always available on this Skype ID, and this 24 /7

Just type in this unique word in Skype: costaricacoffee

What Are You Comfortable With?

• Wordpress. Very comfortable with it! I like plugins, maybe too much! Podcasting also!
• Directory Script. I can install a directory in less than one hour. You can see an example at: http://www.coffeecostarica.org. This script also have exchange links and an article directory. I don’t know why, but I have this obsession about directories! Weird!
• MindMap. I manage MindMaps quiet well! See a mindmap I did plus this article at MinMaps Underdog Tool For internet Marketers!
• Last is Zoom Indexer. This is a tool that YOU could use to make search able all the Pdf files you have. This indexer can index all the words within Pdf documents. You have 10 Pdf and 5000 words. You will be able to create a library where all the words WITHIN these Pdf files become fully searchable!

Tools I Have

1. I know it is old, but to create a simple web page, it is more than enough!
2. XSite Pro. I have it but really never use it. There would have a learning curve but it is there.
3. Mindjet MindManager Pro 7. This is the tool I use to create MindMaps
4. MAGIX Podcast MAKER to create PodCast
5. Keywords Analyzer 7…I am sure you know this one
6. Competion Dominator …really nice tool to spy on your competition…legally!
7. Camtasia Studio 3.0

Attitude (unordered list)

• I respect the hand that feed me
• I don’t have a 9 to 5 attitude
• I am flexible: 25 hours one week, 50 hours another week
• I adapt my schedule to YOUR priority, not mine
• I like to stay at home
• I love my computer
• I am a dedicated person. If one day you tell me there is an emergency, it will be treated like an emergency.
• I am available 7 days a week…again flexible
• I am not sick very often
• I am not jealous of success. You made $5000 in a week-end! Good for you and good for me too! I know I will be paid!!
• If I worked 1 hour and 47 minutes, it is 1.47 minutes that will be billed! I am not going to round off to 2 hours.
• If there is a learning curve in any task, I will tell you! Example! It takes 4 hours to complete a task. There were 2 hours of learning curve. In the report, it will be mentioned. You will decide what to cut!
• I will use a computer clock in / out, avoiding any discrepancies
• If for any reason, I don’t want to work with you anymore, I will give you a notice before leaving. I don’t dump people like this!
• Next vacation will be in July 2008. We will work out something together, a long time in advance, to minimize the “side effects” of this situation!

Personal Details

These are details that are more personal. Normally some of them are not shared, or not mentioned, or not asked by the employer because of some laws etc. etc. Nevertheless, I feel conformable to share them with you. Why? Because personal life has always an impact on work, whatever a positive or negative one!

I am married to a Tica (friendly name for Costa Rican people). Her name is Sarah. Already 13 years! Gee! Times fly! I am a grandfather, 3 grandsons, 2 granddaughters. My daughters are living in Quebec.
In July 2007, after 10 years I sold my CyberCafe here in Costa Rica. I must confess this to you: I need to do something to maintain my brain cells happy! This way I should be able to avoid a visit from Mr. Alzheimer!

In a perfect world, they say that when you can match your hobby with your work, you are on the road to happiness. That interest in Internet Marketing started in September of 2006 and is more alive than ever. Interest with this leitmotiv:

• look
• listen
• and feel

I am trying to tell you something here! I will do a task your way… not mine! Why? Because I don’t have a “my way” yet! You see, I am not “molded” yet! On the other hand, I am very good at making suggestions.

The challenge is to find a balance between these 2 “yes”:

• the… Yes Sir
• the… Yes Man

The Big Question: How Much!!???

I would like to be paid once a week by PayPal. I can make a bill each time for Professional Services and send you the PayPal’s link. If you have a picky accountant on your back, I will even send you by snail mail from Costa Rica statements in paper. Yes! Remember! Paper you can touch and feel!

Price Roger! Please!

Ok! Ok!

Take a big breath! Heeeeeeeere we go!!!!!
