My 4 Hour Work Week Experiment
Just what is a Virtual Assistant?Well, in simplest terms, they’re like a secretary – providing administrative / clerical support to a busy executive. They can do whatever any assistant can do as long as they don’t have to be physically present. So while you couldn’t have them pick up your dry cleaning, they’d be more than happy to research an upcoming presentation for you.
The Search Begins
Ferriss’ book mentions a couple resources - Brickwork, Your Man In India (YMII), & Elance to name a few. I chose a shot gun approach and made inquiries with all three. Evidently, I was not the first person follow in Mr. Ferriss’ footsteps. My initial requests for information from both Brickwork and YMII were met with requests for me to ‘please be patient due to a recent upsurge of customer inquiries.’
Elance was a different story altogether. I posted a job request and within a few hours started receiving bids on my project request.
