Over the last few months there’s been a lot of talk about Tina Forsyth’s book “Becoming an Online Business Manager” - from both Virtual Assistant and online based business owners. (If you haven’t read this book yet - you MUST! Get it at www.BecomingAnOBM.com)

The funny thing is …. up until a few months ago, I thought I knew what an Online Business Manager (OBM) was. Every once in a while - in my chats with Tina - we’d talk about whether I was really an Online Business Manager myself. It wasn’t until I read Tina’s book that I realized the true differences between an Online Business Manager and a Virtual Assistant.

If you’re a VA, then of course it’s important to understand the differences between the two. You may be an OBM and not even know it! If you’re a business owner - which person do you need for your business?

To help with this, Tina’s created a comparison chart to help illustrate the difference between each role and how they work together. It’s a great resource and free to download at her blog …. www.OnlineBusinessManager.com/blog.

Which are you …. a Virtual Assistant or an Online Business Manager?

Leave your comments … would love to hear from you.
