Virtual Assistant puts social networking to the test as she
travels the blogsphere, the virtual assisting industry and leaving
mystery clues regarding its upcoming online international convention
during 45 stop pre-convention tour.
Baltimore, MD (PRWEB) March 31,
2007 -- We've heard about or read about tours designed to promote all
kinds of causes or industries. But you've never read about something
like this before. Sharon Williams, also known as the Podcast and Blog
Hopping Virtual Assistant, will embark on a 45 Day Virtual Tour designed
to promote the Virtual Assistant Industry. It's a grueling schedule, but
Williams, who has been in training for this event, says she's up for the
challenge.
The idea is simple. Sharon will visit a different blog or podcast
each day, to answer questions about the Virtual Assistant Industry and
its upcoming annual online convention. Utilizing social networking, she
will introduce virtual assistance to bloggers around the world, with
stops planned in Australia, Canada, the US, England and other countries.
Ms. Williams will respond to questions regarding the industry's history,
technology trends, benefits of working with VAs -- basically anything
blog readers want to know about one of the fastest growing home-based
businesses of the 21st century.
A Virtual Assistant (VA) is an entrepreneur providing administrative
and other business support services to business owners, remotely. "This
tour is an opportunity to educate executives and entrepreneurs about the
advantages of working with VAs," states Ms. Williams. "Overworked and
overwhelmed small business owners and solopreneurs can now delegate back
office and mundane tasks to more than 20,000 work-from-home admin
specialists, while they concentrate on responsibilities that fuel their
passion."
As an added twist to this virtual event, Ms. Williams will leave a
mystery clue at each stop, as well as a link to the previous stop's
clue. Participants who solve the puzzle at the conclusion of the tour
will be eligible for prizes donated by Virtual Assistants and other
industry supporting businesses.
