Happy New Year!!!

Here we are on the cusp of a new year! I wanted to take a moment and thank all of you for your connections and some of you for your business! As we begin the new year, I want you to ask yourself what your business needs be in 2011. Take stock of where you are now and where you want your business to go. Do you need a fresh newsletter or maybe you need to be doing more with your on-line networking? There are many things necessary to grow business and I want you to know that GhostSecPro is here ...

It's Christmas for me...

But whatever holiday you celebrate this time of year, I wish you and yours all my best! This is the time when many of us recharge our batteries and get ready for the new year! I certainly need some recharge myself! With all the difficulties I have had over the course of 2010, there are many who have had worse. I remain positive that business will pick up and all of us small business owners will finally be able to breath again! My wish for the new year is growth and an end to this economic str...

Virtual Assistant -VS- On-Line Business Manager

There have been a few posts on line lately about a Virtual Assistant not being an On-Line Business Manager and as true as this statement is, I believe that most On-Line Business Managers were once, and still might be, Virtual Assistants. Moving from Virtual Assistant to On-Line Business Manager is a natural progression for some while others, such as myself, feel as though offering both services is also a smart move. Some businesses only need the services of a Virtual Assistant or On-line Admi... READ MORE Posted December 09, 2010 at 02:32 PM

Delagating Tasks to your new VA...

You've decided to hire a Virtual Assistant or On-Line Business Manager...Now what? When hiring virtually, you need to be sure that whoever you hire fits with you and your business. An assistant isn't just someone who handles your calendar and books your travel. You usually utilize this person's skills for a wide variety of tasks and you need to be sure about some things... Trust is a big part of any working relationship so you really need to find someone with whom you build a rapport. A VA is... READ MORE Posted December 02, 2010 at 02:55 PM

What's the difference?

There are Virtual Assistants, On-Line Business Managers, Author's Assistants, Administrative Consultants. So what's the difference and how does a business decide what's best for them? I think the first thing you need to understand is that all of these are entrepreneurs who have something in common with you...they want to make you and your business successful by forming a partnership. They are not your employee, they are your partner. By creating a collaborative relationship, these assistants ... READ MORE Posted November 23, 2010 at 09:41 AM

Finally...a new blog entry!

Things in my personal life have been crazy to say the least! This economy has taken it's toll on our family over the course of the last two years. We became one of the many casualties of the housing market and had to move. We've been working like crazy to get the home office set back up, better than before, thankfully. We've also had to deal with the issues of change with a special needs child! Always fun! Our family is still blessed nonetheless and we are moving forward! Business is slow but...

It's May!!!

It's May...spring cleaning! How can GhostSecPro help you with your spring cleaning? I don't know about you, but I go crazy when my office, and life, is disorganized. When I worked in Corporate America, I was probably one of the most organized people in the office. I can't stand clutter and pride myself on organizing everything to a tee! Well, when you're in business for yourself, what are some of the things you can do to get organized? I start each year with a new set of files. They're clean ...

Been a while!

Once again, it's been a while since I last blogged. I find it such a struggle to balance my business tasks and my clients' tasks. So, I've decided that this would be a great topic to blog about. If you work from home or have a small to medium sized business, how do you plan your day? Then, how do you deal with items that come up and keep you from following your planned items for a particular day? I find that keeping a calendar helps me prioritize but about the time I get going at a good pace ... READ MORE Posted April 05, 2010 at 09:07 AM

Meetings this week!

Hey all! I hope you've all had a wonderful time playing in the snow! I know my daughter...and husband...loved it! School starts back after a couple days off, and I'm spending time putting together an email blast to tempt new clients. If you're looking for someone who really knows the administrative side of business, I feel I can be that "missing link" that pulls everything together. I have 17 years of experience as an Executive Assistant and have created budgets, organized contracts, created ... READ MORE Posted February 15, 2010 at 05:19 PM

It's been a long time!

Hi all, I am so sorry it's been so long since I last posted to my blog. It's been a really crazy January! I got super busy at the end of December and played catch-up on everything else. That is until...my computer crashed! What a complete disappointment! My wonderful brother helped me out and got me back up and running but not without getting a new computer and having to recover all my data! I was lucky, I had most of it backed up but getting used to a new operating system and recovering the ... READ MORE Posted February 01, 2010 at 05:02 PM
