Plan for Your Portable Career as a Virtual Assistant

JACKSONVILLE, N.C. - May 13, 2014 - PRLog -- In conjunction with National Small Business Week (May 12-16, 2014), military spouse entrepreneur, Melissa St. Clair, Owner of Paper Chaser, a virtual-based company providing online office support for small business owners, has designed a Business Plan template exclusively for Virtual Assistants. The template which includes Pricing Structure and Competitive Analysis as well as instructions, pre-filled sections and annotations is available on the Paper Chaser website at http://www.paperchaserbiz.com (http://paperchaserbiz.com/) under the Rates and Services tab.

“Oftentimes Business Plans go unwritten for one reason or another. A Virtual Assistant (VA) business owner may not know where to begin or may jump right in with the first client then the day to day business operations monopolize their time and a formal Business Plan goes unwritten. My goal in creating this step by step Business Plan template exclusively for Virtual Assistants is to ease the pain in taking one of the first actions to establishing or outlining a VA Business,” said Melissa St. Clair.

St. Clair continued, “As a military spouse and careerist, I took my first steps as an entrepreneur, starting my VA business in 2006 by marrying my executive office skills with the available technology. While I utilized my management degree, administrative skill set and attended business start-up courses, I didn’t write a formalized plan until after I had been in business a while. I value the flexibility and portability being a VA offers given the unique challenges of frequent moves and the distinct demands on time for military spouses.”

PAPER CHASER is a virtual-based company owned by military spouse entrepreneur, Melissa Whiteford St. Clair. Since 2006, PAPER CHASER has been helping busy solopreneurs get out from behind the desk and back into their business to focus on sales, service and networking by handling a variety of administrative tasks such as: client communications, internet research, project assistance and more.
