THE VIRTUAL ASSISTANT INDUSTRY Taking care of business no matter where you are in the world!

© Executive Stress Office Support. All Rights Reserved. What is a VA? A Virtual Assistant is an independent consultant/ contractor who provides a range of services remotely from their own office. They use fax, email, instant messaging, mobile, internet telephony, web conference rooms and chat servers to communicate with clients. They provide wide ranging services, but most particularly administrative support. Think of them as a Personal Assistant, Office Administrator and Secretary rolled into one. But virtual office assistants aren't entirely new. At one point, they were called at-home secretaries. The profession evolved to virtual office assistant in the mid-1990s as businesses' needs grew from basic typing to marketing, Web design and accounting. Also known as Virtual Business Service Providers, Virtual Business Operators, Teleworkers & Telecommuters. “Professional Virtual Assistance for the 21st Century Professional!” © Executive Stress Office Support.
