Dear Professional Virtual Assistant or Aspiring VA,
As you and I already know, for many internet businesses, Virtual
Assistants are the glue that holds each business together.
Today's internet marketers and entrepreneurs
are increasingly stressed, overworked and overwhelmed by all that goes into managing
their businesses. They're desperate for great VAs like yourself to basically
rescue them from drowning in a list of tasks they are not able to manage properly.
No doubt about it -- a great Virtual Assistant is a successful
Internet business's finest asset .
More and more Internet entrepreneurs are realizing this, as more books
and seminars continue to coach them on the value of outsourcing work to capable
VAs.
The demand is huge -- and growing. There could not be a better time
to build a Virtual Assistant business. More specifically, now is the perfect
time to position yourself as an Internet Marketing Virtual Assistant
(IMVA) ! Here's why...
The small and medium
business client base for Virtual Assistants is growing at a meteoric pace. It's
expected that in 2010, 80% of these businesses will have an internet presence and
will market online. That means over 20 million potential clients for VAs!
In the US alone , it is forecasted that Internet Marketing and Advertising
Spending will skyrocket from 1.3 billion dollars back in 2005 to 9.3 billion by
2010. This equates to more companies investing more dollars into their internet
marketing efforts with no end in sight!
Things are growing and evolving so rapidly in the Internet Marketing
industry, that an ever expanding pool of internet business owners are desperate
for Virtual Assistants with the right niche skills to effectively support their
marketing efforts!
This is where VAClassroom.com comes in... to help guide YOU to be that
Virtual Professional they are looking for!
I have found VAClassroom to be a
great Virtual Assistant staffing resource for my company.
As a "virtual" company we rely heavily on properly trained and skilled virtual assistants
to perform almost all of the tasks within our organization. The skills and training
that VAs are getting at VAClassroom are the types of tasks we need done on a daily
basis!
I recently sent a specific
request for a new Virtual Assistant -- and within days I was introduced to a new
VA with the skill set I was looking for. I highly recommend VAClassroom to anyone
seeking quality virtual assistants...I sure know where I'll be turning when I need
more virtual staff!"

As an entrepreneur,
and the owner of two successful companies, I rely on virtual assistants for a variety
of tasks. Over the years, I've seen a wide range of quality in the service, experience,
and skillset I receive from VA's.
That's why I'm so excited about VAClassroom, as I know the certified VA's I
hire in the future will have a good foundation of training and expertise.
I no longer have to gamble on inexperienced or unqualified VA's if I hire virtual
assistants certified by VAClassroom.
Thanks Craig for making this happen!

What’s the Story Behind VAClassroom and the
Internet Marketing VA Training Program?
Before I tell you about how VAClassroom's Internet Marketing VA (IMVA) Certification
will help keep you skills and knowledge up-to-date and very much IN DEMAND, allow
me to quickly introduce myself…
My name is Craig Cannings. I'm the Managing Director at VAClassroom.com, which I
co-founded with my lovely
wife, Kelly.
Kelly began a professional Virtual Assistant business with an Internet company way
back in 2000 - when VAs were just getting started!
.
She's performed many VA functions, such as setting up and managing Customer Support
Systems, handling billing and accounting functions, as well as affiliate marketing
research and ad campaign management.
She's well aware as you are, that the Virtual Assistant industry is evolving so
much faster now than just a few years ago!
“Virtual Assistants in 2010 require so much more effort
to keep current with the latest technology, skills, and services being demanded.”
Kelly Cannings,
Co-Founder of VAClassroom.com and VA since 2000
Although I have not worked as a VA myself, I have had the privilege
of training, managing and partnering with some fabulous Virtual Assistants over
the years. This is one unique advantage of VAClassroom which I'll get into in more
detail shortly... VAClassroom was built not only by VAs, but by the Internet
Entrepreneurs who need to hire them!
Our inspiration to create the IMVA Certification Course and share this
amazing service with you originates from Kelly's and my own experience in training,
managing and working alongside wonderful and very valuable Virtual Assistants like
you over the years.
I understand very well that much of my success in business is due in
large part to my partnership with great VAs. VAClassroom is our personal effort
to give something of value back to the industry.
To do so, I set out to determine exactly what specific VA skills and
services were most desired by Internet Businesses….
How Exactly Did I Identify All These Specific
In-Demand Virtual Assistant Skills and Services?
I drew upon my own experiences as a busy internet business owner who
regularly hires VAs. I also immersed myself in months of research.
Over a 6-month period, I invested many hours surveying multiple internet
business owners and internet marketers and identified some current skill gaps for
many VAs. Through this research, I've identified many new specific tasks that businesses
are increasingly outsourcing or would like to delegate to Virtual Assistants.
The outcome of my research was very clear about one thing...
There is an emerging demand for an Internet Marketing Virtual Assistant
Training Program that equips VAs like you with the specific skills internet businesses
need , today and beyond.
They are frantically looking for versatile, productive, web-savvy VAs,
with the skills to perform an increasing variety of crucial internet marketing support
services including:
- Blog management and support
-
Social media marketing and submission
-
Article submission
-
Affiliate marketing
research and recruitment
-
Online competitor analysis
-
Web analytics tracking and reporting
-
Effective keyword research
-
Press release submissions
-
Internet market research strategies
-
Email auto-responder management
-
Online Project management
-
Video editing and marketing support
-
Podcast editing and submission
-
Online survey set-up
and management
… and many other services!
With VAClassroom's IMVA Certification, you'll know exactly how to effectively
perform and market all of these services and many more.

I recently completed the Internet Marketing

listen. In a word, the training program was "Awesome"! VAClassroom has opened
up a whole new niche opportunity for my business as I have become more
involved and knowledgeable about Internet Marketing and Social Media. I am so

I am very impressed with the wide-ranging content contained within the VA Classroom
videos. Craig has an in-depth understanding of how VA’s work and is clear and concise
in his explanations. There are also several great references to invaluable resources
which will help any aspiring or indeed, existing, Virtual Assistant to progress
their business. Overall, this is a professional and well thought through training
course and I have no hesitation in highly recommending The VA Classroom training
course.

VAClassroom offers you practical skills, not fluff. It's designed to
reduce the hassle and time it will take you to keep current on the latest in-demand
skills and trends you need to know to send your Virtual Assistant business soaring!
You may have experienced, as I have, the frustration of paying a substantial
fee for a university degree, or a training course, hoping to get out of it everything
you need to know in order to find a job, or run a business... only to discover that
what you learned is not what your future employers, or clients, are looking for.
Now I want to make it clear that our training programs do not just
identify what skills are in-demand and profitable. We will show you how to put
these practical skills to use to grow your business and generate some excellent
income opportunities immediately.
In fact, I have recruited a board of internet business advisors, who
oversee and update the content of existing and future courses. This extra accountability
ensures that you are receiving the most up-to-date and relevant training possible!

I am new to the internet marketing and Virtual Assistance scene and have thoroughly
enjoyed the VA Classroom courses. After many boring university lectures it was
a breathe of fresh air to finally do a course that was thorough, precise, clear
and interesting! With the use of both verbal language and visual presentations
the course was easy to follow and extremely helpful in understanding the course
material. Without this great course I would not have known what to do or where to
turn!
Thank you VA Classroom!

In my opinion the tutorials were really
awesome. As an Instructional Designer for many years, I feel you created very
sound, educational materials. Very nicely chunked up, really good quizzes and follow
up action guides. Easy to follow and very motivational. Although I
already do Internet Marketing I learned ALOT of additional info from those courses,
especially from reviewing the Resource Guides.

“The Internet
Marketing Virtual Assistant Certification Program is well worth it for any Virtual
Assistant who is looking to grow their business, expand their service offering
or wants to learn more about internet marketing. With so many courses,
seminars, books and courses now available to Virtual Assistants, it can be hard
to decide which one to choose and which ones are worthy of our hard earned dollars.
I am usually one of the bigger skeptics out there and I reserve my accolades for
those who truly deserve it, so I can be confident when I say that you will not
be disappointed by the value you get when you sign up for the IMVA course.
I can definitely say the information I learned in this course has not only made
me more marketable, but it has helped me find new clients doing what I love
to do.
Five stars
for the Internet Marketing Virtual Assistant Certification course.”
