My Top 10 Virtual Assistant Video Tip Series is LIVE on YouTube!

Location: Company Offices – Reading / Viewing Time: 6mins

When I announced my Virtual Assistant Video Tip Series last week, with a quick, first clip from the fantastic island of Boracay here in the Philippines, I had no idea (seriously!) it would be as well received as it was. I have received a ton of email on this one (thanks to all of you who contacted me!) and so as soon as I got back today, I clean up the clips and had my PA upload everything to my YouTube channel for you to check them out.

Above is Tip #4, where I discuss the pro’s and con’s of working with a Freelance VA. At the end of the clip I mention Manny Pacquiao’s fight, which I literally got to the big-screen showing in time to see the clang of the first round bell. He won – very boring fight, however! But, it didn’t stop the HUNDREDS of Filipino’s watching the fight with me, my wife and a few friends, cheering and screaming when it was announced that he had won!

As I was shooting these clips, sporadically throughout the course of the week, in various locations on the island, I got to thinking that this subject matter is way bigger than just ten short video tips and a free eBook. I am curious to see if you guys would be interested in more content on this subject, in the form of a ‘real’ eBook with lots of stuff, such as:…

Announcing My ‘Top 10 Virtual Assistant Tips’ Video Series (From Boracay, Philippines)

Location: Beach Apartment, Boracay – Reading / Viewing Time: 3-4mins

I’m here in Boracay, home of some of the great beaches in the world, for a weeks escape. I like to take these trips once every two months or so to de-clutter and be able to evaluate how business is going, and what plans I can put into action in the future, amongst other things.

When planning for this trip, I was thinking about what video posts I could shoot over here for the blog… And, I came up with an idea literally no less than a week or so ago, that I thought might be really cool – and that was to take the time to shot a series of quick-tip clips on the world of the Virtual Assistant.

For those of you who have already signed-up and downloaded my free eBook ‘Saving the Day, the Virtual Way’ (if you haven’t, do so now to the right of the site!), you’ll know the types of topics that I go into, and so what I intend to do is elaborate on those topics a little more, individually, through this video series.

Plus, at the end of the series, when I get back to Cebu, I am going to be interviewing one of the virtual assistants that works for my company, to really give you a solid ‘insiders look’ on how we work with our virtual staff for our clients and so you can perhaps pick-up some tips for when you are spending time training and developing your own outsourced staff….
