Facebook Page vs. Profile? Things that make you say “Hmmmm”

Facebook Page vs. Profile?

Facebook Page vs ProfileDoes this question make you say, “Hmmmm“, scratch your head, turn and move on to the next task on your endless list? You’re a business professional, right? So, why do you want to understand? Do you really need to? Wouldn’t your time be better spent on selling? So many questions!

I know that everyone of the clients I come into contact with, whether they are Realtors, lawyers or life coaches, want to understand social networking – to a certain extent. And so you should, or you’ll be left behind the rest of the world wondering what happened! But, to be proficient at utilizing these websites (such as Facebook, Twitter and LinkedIn) is not what you are in business for, and is not what you should be spending your days (and nights) trying to figure out.

As a virtual assistant since 2001, the core of my business has been built being ever-present online, which in turn has thrust me into the depths of staying on top of the social networking waves of change. We would say, I’m an avid surfer! With the hands-on experience and direct results I have witnessed over the years, from keeping both myself and my clients in the forefront of our future buyer’s computer screens, I am able to proficiently provide a how-to approach and/or a get it done social networking package to you.

If you would like to learn more about Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, and other high-traffic social networking websites or how I can make them work for you (with very little time invested by you), please complete the form below and I’ll be in touch with you shortly.

Disadvantages of Outsourcing Jobs

Disadvantages of Outsourcing Jobs

The first thing that comes to mind has to be offshore outsourcing. Society scrutinizes this type of business ethic because in the end all it does is hurt the labor market. We have millions of Americans who are losing jobs and part of it is due to companies using offshore outsourcing. Not to mention millions more workers who no longer have job security in mind.

A great example of this is the language barrier in places like Call Centers. Businesses and consumers are having issues understanding current workers, which can transpire into miscommunication and future issues with the company. Do you really want to put your business is this type of situation?

Building Toward The Future

Sometimes you have to take matters into your own hands and the end result helps everyone around you. Outsourcing jobs can be extremely helpful to your company, but keeping it close to home instead of offshoring jobs can keep consumers and employees loving your business.

When you have the capabilities to make a change for the better, it only takes a little push in the right direction to make it happen. If you want more information on outsourcing jobs and virtual assistance for your company, please complete the form below and we’ll be in touch shortly.

Virtual Assistance and Social Media – The Impact

Virtual Assistance and Social Media – The Impact

Virtual Assistance and social media and how it has impacted our businesses really cannot be truly appreciated.  It really is an understatement to simply say that social media is exploding among every industry in the world today, including virtual assistance.  I have established and provided many great contacts, referrals, and businesses within social media sites such as Facebook, LinkedIn and Youtube.

But to really gain a true understanding of the utter extent of social media and how much of an impact it is having in our (personal and) professional lives, please take a look at the video I have included below.

The question that comes to mind when taking this all in is, “What’s next?” Could you have fathomed that something like Facebook would have existed 5 years ago? How about Twitter? Just when I think there can be nothing new to enrich my business to a whole other level, these social networking sites bring them way over the edge! I can say that I have increased my business by double over the last year simply due to my strategic Facebook usage.

Don’t forget that there are hundreds, no, thousands of groups that directly relate to you and your business on Facebook (and Twitter). Simply adding yourself as a “Fan” will not cut it. Interact. Provide Insight. Don’t be shy! People really do want to hear from you – but remember – not about what you had for breakfast or what you think you’ll buy at the store today. Once in a while it is ok to include some personalization to your posts, but make it low priority.
