Atlanta REALTOR Uses Dallas VA To Make A Big
Difference In Her Business And Life ...
Kathy Drewien (http://www.atlantarelo.com)
is a "take-charge" RE/MAX professional in the
Atlanta region, who associates refer to as the
"Cyber Queen". After reading previous Mr.
Internet articles about the virtues of Virtual
Assistants, Kathy "took charge" and decided she
needed some real help —virtually
speaking:
Dear Mr. Internet,
I'm an "online" Realtor in every
aspect of my business. I pride myself on being on
the cutting edge of technology in real estate. A
virtual assistant is a natural addition to my
business growth.
In several of your recent
publications, you've touted the virtues of your
virtual assistant but I only explored the idea
superficially. It was only when I was feeling
overwhelmed and you mentioned the idea again in
your electronic newsletter that I got serious with
a search.
I started with the links in your
newsletter and surfed along the way. I sent a few
emails out playing with the idea of what I needed
and received an immediate response from Anna
Baron. Anna is the owner of The Virtual Secretary
(http://www.annabaron.com)
and is a co-founder of The Virtual Link (http://www.thevirtuallink.com).
Her professional image echoed my own professional
standards and I decided on the spot that she was
the assistant for me.
She possesses 10 years of executive
level experience, is advanced in all software
programs, is experienced in desktop publishing to
assist me with brochures and flyers and in
addition she is a web designer who provides
maintenance on my existing site (http://www.atlantareloc.com)
and is designing a new site for a separate
business venture.
My VA is routinely responsible for:
creating and mailing out my monthly newsletter
(researching a large portion of the content
herself), creating my monthly online newsletters,
sending flowers and gifts to contest winners and
new clients when needed, creating flyers on
various houses in color and black and white, and
can handle anything on a business or personal
level. There isn't a project that she hasn't been
able to do or refused to do. In addition, she has
a lot of great ideas and provides valuable
feedback to questions or concerns regarding my
marketing and administrative needs.
I have used my VA for less than a
year but in just a couple of months of using her I
noticed a difference. My business is thriving and
I'm spending quality time with my family. In the
background my VA is working hard to make sure my
business succeeds, that I remain a presence with
current and past clients and that I can
concentrate on the important things - family and
sales.
Thank you,
