The first VA Round Table Edition of A Virtual Perception is here. Participants in this episode included Rikki Green of Time for Life Concepts, Kimberly LeRiche JK Virtual Office Resources, Kena Roth of Virtually Assisting You and myself. We covered a variety of different topics at the table including setting boundaries, dealing with clients who tend to suck the time out of your day, Twitter Etiquette and more! This is a great episode for Virtual Assistants to listen to, who are in all phases of their business development.

I would love to hear you weigh in on some of the topics discussed during this Round Table. Feel free to leave a comment on this post with your thoughts or questions regarding the VA Round Table.

Megan Barber, a Real Estate Virtual Assistant, shares her knowledge about Real Estate Virtual Assisting. In this episode we speak about why she chose this niche for her business, some of the certifications and training she has. Megan answers the question: Is certification and training needed for this specialized niche?  She also shares with me her insight on the virtual assistant industry. She provides some truly valuable advice about starting your virtual assistant business and how it is just that, a business, not a hobby or simply a job.

I also bring back podcast segments and in this episode I introduce two new ones called: Twitter Talk and Podcast Corner. So, this episode is full of information for everybody!
