Becoming A Virtual Assistant
A single mother of three, Allen-Parker left her marketing post at a
cancer research organization to start her new venture and moved her
family from the city to a 25-acre farm in rural Kentucky. "I knew I had
to succeed because there was no 'Plan B,'" says Allen-Parker. Now she
serves clients in the United States, Canada and Spain. She specializes
in what she knows best-marketing. Her farmhouse is paid in full,
completely financed through her work as a virtual assistant.A critically ill daughter was the reason Pamela Braue became a
virtual assistant last year. Working full time in a law office was no
longer feasible so Braue decided to take control of her earnings
potential. The paralegal enrolled in an online training course at Specializing in realtor support, Braue opened from Jackson, New Jersey. Before completing her course, she'd already secured six clients.Allen-Parker and Braue are just two of an estimated 2,000 virtual
assistants worldwide. Although one is a veteran and the other a newbie,
both say hard work is the key to building sustainable practices. Both
also agree that aligning experience with solid business plans and
training are basic requirements.
