Press Release Body = Baltimore, MD (PRWeb) February 6, 2007 -- A new study released
today entitled \"A Virtual Solution for Business Growth, Stability and Profitability\"
by Sharon Williams, shows business owners how outsourcing to Virtual Assistants,
members of one of the fastest growing industries today, can save time and money and
increase profitability.

The report introduces small business owners, independent professionals,
entrepreneurs and corporations to solutions that resolve challenges and positively
influence business growth and stability. It is especially beneficial for
entrepreneurs seeking relief from overwhelmed, and those that could use fresh
insight into projects, an extra pair of administrative hands or an expert in
Internet-based technologies.

Sharon Williams states, \"Savvy business owners understand the advantages of working
with Internet-based, technology-smart assistants who are dedicated to the growth,
success and ultimate increased profitability of a client\'s business. Virtual
Assistants (VAs) are skilled, knowledgeable and experienced entrepreneurs who
provide professional administrative support and specialized business services from
an outside location. They can play many support roles, including assuming mundane
tasks, solving technology issues and handling other non-income producing
responsibilities from the entrepreneur\'s task list. A VA is the solution to a
business owner\'s administrative challenges.\"

As more home-based and part-time entrepreneurs are opening their virtual doors and
small businesses, professionals and corporations are expanding their reach in the
global marketplace, they are seeking ways to streamline operations, save money and
effectively complete tasks. The report describes win-win results from hiring a VA to
assist with achieving goals while eliminating staffing and benefit-related expenses
associated with hiring employees. This study describes how business owners can
realign time allocated for administrative duties to nurturing business and personal
relationships.
