Hi Sean,
Hiring a virtual assistant is a great idea. I have noted Elance and online classified ads for when the time comes to outsource tasks.

As soon as I’m organized enough to select the correct help I’ll be doing it. Thank you for the information.

I would love a Virtual Assistant. I have a few friends who have lost jobs over the past few months and would love to have been in a position to offer them some tie over work. I have some articles written by a fantastic person on Elance which has been economical for me as the time I take to write an article can be too long.

One of my goals is to have my IM business at a level where I can hire some staff (and Virtual Assistants)

My partner is in the same boat as Gee and is very skeptical (and unfortunatley we have been through a bad experience in the past 12 months). However I do have his support for what I am doing which is great. Is a great motivation for getting my Internet Marketing working and producing the results I want.

Hi Don,

I think you’ll find that if you continue to hang out with the likes of Sean Rasmussen; you’ll be needing that virtual assistant. And probably sooner than you think.

For now though, I think it’s okay to ask your wife to assist you. I’m sure she doesn’t mind.

Outsourcing to a virtual assistant certainly is on my to do list eventually. They are a very valuable asset to any business not just an online business.

As for sorting who is best I would think the VA would have good references, knowledge and experience with the tasks that you require.
