(PRWEB) July 2, 2006 -- Just when you think everything is going well in your career, you get the news that you are no longer needed. This is a shocker! Hopefully you will have time to weigh your options. If you do your research, you can find amazing opportunities to work for yourself successfully.

A career as a Virtual Assistant is one such opportunity.

So what exactly is a Virtual Assistant?

VA's provide administrative support to both, large and small businesses. Any task that would normally be completed in an office setting, can also be accomplished virtually. With technology making all things possible.

Office space is unnecessary. As is paying both salaries and benefits packages. Clients hire a VA as needed or set up contractural accounts. Skilled Virtual Assistant's provide professionally completed projects with no need for training a new employee.

Annie Thomas-Burke is a happy downsizing survivor and successfuly operates a VA business from her home office. Specializing in Office systems, Transcribing, Content, Order fullfillment and Administrative tasks.

Business is good...
Perhaps downsizing is a good thing in this case.
