Society of Virtual Assistants – October 2014 newsletter

Hi there,

Still looking for some more responses for our annual Virtual Assistant Survey – really important to get a statistically valid sample of the industry, so if you haven’t filled it in, please do so now!!!

NB: Please use Firefox/IE as your browser and make sure your internet cache is cleared if you are experiencing problems with it. TAKE PART HERE

Still not working? If you are still having problems, we do have a paper survey downloadable here which you can scan and return to [email protected]

Small personal announcement: Baby number 2 due April, so I’ve been a bit under the weather of late – apologies if we haven’t got back to you, please do hassle me if you haven’t heard back on something!  The plan is to take some time off in the spring but SVA will continue as normal with our fabulous team of volunteers.
