Good question Mark,
It will be interesting to see if there is any response!
VA's are still little known in the UK - in fact the name for "us" seems to be morphing into VPA, Virtual Personal Assistant.
It is quite funny when you tell people " I am a virtual assistant" and you get quite a puzzled look.
VA's or VPA's are still trying to establish themselves in the UK market, they are quite common place is the US - maybe because it is such a large country?
The
SOCIETY Of VIRUTAL ASSISTANTS is a UK Centric VA Forum run by Virtually Sorted and is a great place to really find out more about VAs and what they do. You will find me there as well as hundreds of other VAs specialising in all different sectors.
