Introducing Vanessa Andruz, Virtual Assistant

On July 6th I’ll be hosting Vanessa Andruz as she travels through cyberspace on her Virtual E-book Tour. Vanessa is a fictional character created by Writer and Virtual Assistant Melodee Patterson. Post your questions about Virtual Assistance in the Comments section of this post, and Vanessa will answer the questions when she makes her tour stop this week!

Vanessa Andruz is a Virtual Assistant and owner of Andruz Business Solutions LLC. She was an Executive Assistant for many years, but after turning 50, she became tired of corporate politics and decided it was time for a change. After researching different career moves, she became a Virtual Assistant. She had some challenges while setting up her business – her mother insisted on “helping” and her ex-husband gave her grief about quitting her job – but she persevered and now has a successful Virtual Assistance business.

With the help of Melodee Patterson of Short-term Solutions, she has created a series of e-books (The Adventures of Vanessa Andruz, Virtual Assistant) which chronicle her VA journey – ex-husband and all. The series provides timely information on discovering your company name, setting up your home office, determining your services and rates, becoming a marketing maven, and much, much more. If you’re thinking of joining the fast-growing Virtual Assistance industry or any home-based business, you won’t want to miss my interview with Vanessa.
