Product Description
Virtual Assistants work from home, providing everything from administrative support to high-end consulting via email, phone and fax. Predicted to be a $130 billion industry by 2008, they don?t commute, they set their own hours, and they get to spend time with their kids. Wouldn?t you like to be a VA, too? The 2-Second Commute will help you decide whether the VA path is a good fit for you.
