I try to link my business as a partnership to my cleint's endeavors. I also clarify what we do...we provide virtual business services. That helps fight the stereotypical idea that we are just glorified support staff. First and foremost, we need to think of ourselves in the light of being business owners and experts in our field, whatever that specialty may be. If we haven't convinces ourselves, it will be tough to convince potential clients. I am also ba big believer that there is enough business to go around and we should be supporting other VAs by referring business or creating alliances to offer more services through creating business alliances.
