All around the internet I’ve been hearing about Virtual Assistants. One of my close friends who is a business/life coach raves about her VA who helps her with emails, daily tasks, scheduling and much more. Her virtual assistant helps her to focus on her business by taking the hassle of the “little” jobs off her shoulders. This sounds like a great thing, for both the busy professional and the stay at home mom who wants to make a good living.

And believe me, most Internet marketers don’t have either the skill or the time to write – or both, and that means a lucrative opportunity for people like you with some writing skills.

I’ll tell you all straight away that I am a WordPress fan! I love it. It makes blogging and web content management so simple and easy that there is no need to use any other CMS, as far as I am concerned at least. But now, they have really topped themselves with their latest release.

Now that I’m done with my metaphors I’ll explain to you what twitter is and why you as a WAHM should use it. Read more
