Press Release Body = Margate, FL - May 2006: Have you heard about the new "kid on
the block?" The one that is empowering businesses to do better, and revolutionizing
the way work is being done today. Well, fasten your seatbelt and meet--The Virtual
Assistant - The business support and Internet technology gurus that are quickly
becoming the answer to many entrepreneurs and small business owners\' needs.
For years businesses have complained of needing more help in the office to meet the
ever-increasing demands of running a business. They needed more time to devote to
marketing and product development without the expense of hiring another employee.
Now, with the help of a qualified Virtual Assistant, they are able to do this and
much more.

So what is a Virtual Assistant? Virtual Assistants (VA\'s) are highly skilled
professionals who take the time to excel in their given area of expertise. They
provide extensive marketing solutions, creative and innovative advertising
campaigns, administrative support, proofing and editing capabilities, and other
specialized services for entrepreneurs, small businesses, authors, and others who
want to bring their business to a new level, or market their books for greater
results. VA\'s work globally, taking full advantage of all the connections of the
online networks.

Diana Ennen, co-author of Virtual Assistant-The Series: Become a Highly Successful,
Sought After VA (http://www.va-theseries.com/) states, "The future has arrived, and
with it a growing partnership that\'s sure to last - The Virtual Assistant and Client
Partnership." Ennen and co-author Kelly Poelker of "Another 8 Hours" have just
completed the Virtual Assistant-The Series: Workbook Edition that accompanies the
main manual and are pleased to already be selling these at many colleges throughout
the United States and Canada in addition to virtual assistants eager to start a
business.

As Industry Leaders, Ennen and Poelker are proud to see that on Friday, May 19,
2006, Virtual Assistants will finally get the respect they deserve. That\'s the day
that the OIVAC assembly will salute the global VA industry during the International
Virtual Assistants Day celebration. They will honor industry leaders and recognize
VA\'s who have worked hard to bring our Industry to the forefront.
