I find networking a bit more challenging now other than with the co-workers I work with...but I know that there are options available for me to network with even more now than ever. And with the CVAC membership, that also helps. Hopefully those connections will pay off!
I have had the hardest time explaining to my own family what I do as a virtual assistant, so I have given up on that. Since they don't consider that to be a real job, I figure at least as long as my wife, Donna understands and the rest of the time will be spent on educating others. I've developed skills in recent months that will help me with running my own home office, and I still keep my SEB information from what I picked up in that program. The way I see it...others have made an honest living doing what they love to do, so isn't it about time I had the same opportunities?
