The other Side

So, I’ve decided not to be a virtual assistant myself, but instead I will use them in my projects.

Prices, working hours and methods differ from VA to VA.

Some companies in the US charge up to $75 an hour, while some in India only charge $10.

Hugh difference. I can’t compare their services yet as I’m in the progress of communication.

I’ve found a lot of offers through linkedin (www.linkedin.com). For now I’m comparing their offers and

finding out how I go about telling them what I want to get done.

Wrong Nationality

After looking into all this for a while, I’ve decided this system does work, although I haven’t earned a single penny with this. My Canadian girlfriend set up all this for me, but I can’t use it since you have to be a US resident in most cases and only a few allow some other coutries like the UK, Canada, Australia.

I can pretend to be my girlfriend, but as they will know my location through my IP Address that would be considered fraud (unless she ‘hires’ me to do it on her behalf ?)
