Most Virtual Assistants (VA) work within a niche market
chosen because of a passion they have. As
everyone knows, you learn everything you can about your passion and become an
expert at it! I chose my niche market of solo practice lawyers and small law
firms because of my love of the law and the legal system and because most
lawyers are no-nonsense, straight shooting people who appreciate the same in
someone they work with.
Here are a few of the different types of VAs:
- General VAs – Email and contact management, general correspondence, transcription, data entry and travel arrangements (just to name a few of the tasks they do)
- Legal VAs –knowledge of law firm administration, legal procedures and legal terminology
- Medical VAs – knowledge of medical office administration and medical terminology
- Real Estate VAs – listing coordination, manages transactions, marketing assistance
- Technical VAs – creates and manages websites, blogs, newsletters, social media, etc.
When choosing a VA you want to research the different types
and find one that is an expert in the area you need assistance in. Before retaining a VA ask questions, get all
of the facts and make sure you have a contract outlining the services to be
provided. You won’t be disappointed!!
