When I was a trainer, I wish I’d had a Virtual Assistant to do my expenses for me. Every month I would start with good intentions of storing all those receipts together, just to be scrabbling around my bag/laptop case/notebooks/every single door pocket for all my various car parking receipts which were sometimes three or four a day when I was a regional trainer.

Generally, whenever I tell people I am a Virtual Assistant, I am met with fairly blank looks! I am not even sure my family knows what it is, to be honest! So allow me….. “A virtual assistant is a self-employed administrative or personal assistant who works remotely (usually at home) for various clients”
