Steering Away from Innuendos

It has been a while since the last time I surf the Net for reference as to where I can possibly get an efficient virtual assistant service. I went from one company to another thinking that maybe I can weigh my options a little bit and extend the duration while I bid for something better.

A friend of mine who is also a business consultant had dinner with me last week and talked me through the process. He told me that the key role of virtual assistance does not lie on convenience alone. He stressed on the financial stability that I may be able to achieve given that I don’t step out of the line the moment I see threats. The challenge, according to him is the innuendos that often caused businessmen to hesitate. He said that surfing the net as often as I did and waiting for something to fall on my lap won’t help me steer away from those. The conversation went on and while he was talking some more, I went ballistic. Not to exaggerate but I got so mad that the bottle of wine was thrown off the table. I knew it. I hate to admit, but my boyfriend was right about it too. It’s not like I closed my doors but sometimes it’s hard to let other people deal with what is suppose to be the bread and butter of your existence. Yesterday, I made a few calls to go over some companies on the top of my list and I visited their websites as well. There was this company who got me really interested with their approach and their market assessment, especially for small scale businesses. On their website I also found some articles that are were very helpful for research purposes. One thing that I always make sure of especially in terms of the long term goals of my business is being prepared and that includes being knowledgeable.

Now, I just have to set all my affairs in order before I make a move. Maybe it was meant for me after all. Unlike this shaky relationship I have with my boyfriend. But I’ll stop whining about it and attend to these more pressing issues that I have to settle for now.
