Yesterday in the VirtualU blog we started talking about services that a VA can provide to his or her clients; here’s the rest of the list.

11. Database maintenance. Make sure your clients’ lead database is in order so that there aren’t missed sales.
12. Internet research. When your clients need information, it can be up to you to find it for them.
13. Make reservations. When your clients have important business meetings, you can ensure that they are able to impress those in attendance with a great meal.
14. Reminder services. There’s one thing that’s certain: those who are busy in business need to remember meetings, anniversaries, birthdays and other key events – you can keep track of them for them.
15. Scheduling. Busy business folks are going to have a lot of meetings to get to; make it your job to make sure their aren’t scheduling conflicts.
16. Internet admin. With message boards, forums, chat rooms, groups and blogs, it’s important to make sure that everything runs smoothly.
17. Travel planning. If your clients need to leave town for meetings, you can make flights and hotel reservations.
18. Newsletter creation. Chances are good that the busier your clients are, the more they will need to communicate with their clients and customers; you can make that an easier process.
19. Call and email answering. By taking messages and answering the basic questions for your clients, you can help them to better manage their own time.
20. Organizing. Some people think about organization in a sense that’s a lot like re-decorating. Instead, VA’s can offer organization services that involve setting email folders, grouping prospects and sorting information to simplify different processes.

Once you identify what you’ll do as a virtual assistant, all it takes is making sure that you have the VA business training to make sure that everything goes smoothly for you.
