2. What is a Virtual Assistant? Virtual Assistants (typically abbreviated to Vas) are entrepreneurs who provide professional administrative, technical, or creative (social) assistance to clients from a home office. They usually work for other small businesses and consultancy groups. Common modes of communication and data delivery include the Internet, e-mail and telephone conferences, online work spaces, and fax machines. Professionals in this business work on a contractual basis and a long-lasting cooperation is standard.

3. What is a Virtual Assistant? A virtual assistant is an independently contracted business owner, not an employee. They work out of their own offices, manage the work from their clients and how it is carried out, set their own rates, as well as operating standards and policies, and pay their own self-employment taxes. Virtual assistants are cost effective to businesses because we only get paid when we work. Since we are independent contractors, we are tax deductible to the company. It is estimated that by 2011, mobile workers will make up 73% of the workforce.
