Determine which virtual assistant services you offer and list them in clear language. Your services drive decisions about website design, such as the type of technologies you use. You might provide administrative support or serve as a personal assistant who handles communications for clients. Perhaps you offer specialized services, such as event planning, website design, marketing, bookkeeping or technical writing. Describe the tasks you perform in your work areas. List your contract terms and, if not the actual amounts you charge, your payment terms, Add information about your qualifications, education, training and skills.
Design to Impress
Website visitors decide quickly about your virtual assistant business. Make the overall look and feel of your website a recommendation for you and your business. A free template, such as one provided by website hosting companies or desktop publishing programs, ensures an attractive, consistent and professional design. Add up to five pages, with contact information on each page. You might include a home page and pages for “about me,” services offered and contract terms. Make your website easy to navigate. Use tabs and other links for moving around the site quickly. Display important information prominently, avoid dense type and wordiness and arrange content for rapid visual scanning.
Advertising and Marketing
Although your website is like a big advertisement for your virtual assistant business, you have to get people to the site. Link to Twitter, Facebook and other social and professional networking accounts. Develop search engine optimization, or SEO, keywords and phrases related to your virtual assistance business and add them to your website pages. Add client recommendations and graphics that describe your major accomplishments. Clients use virtual assistants to save money and time, but your website should hint at the quality of your work.
Communication Tools
Use a contact form so visitors can submit questions. Include an intranet that requires a password and log-in for clients to view private content, communicate with you and exchange documents and media files. Some clients will prefer telephone or email contact, while others will appreciate the use of advanced tools like network and cloud sharing. Your skill at working productively in a virtual environment will attract more clients and enable you to offer more diverse services.
Trial Run and Publish
Select an affordable website hosting service that allows you to easily update your site content; you may select a hosting service first and use provided templates to design your website. Proofread each page of the website before publishing. Check for spelling and grammatical errors. Verify that all links to and from the website are functioning. Test the email account and the contact form. Publish the website and ask friends and colleagues to look it over and give feedback. Your error-free, consistently live and current website builds confidence in your services as a virtual assistant.

How to Start an Online Thrift StoreIn Feburary 2016 01,

Apply for a business license and open a business bank account. Even though this is a small business, you will still want to separate your business and personal income to make tax filing easier. It also presents you more professionally and allows you to separate your business and personal life.
Set up an online storefront. Most thrift store owners prefer to have an eBay store, since payment processing and shipping are so convenient, and they do not have to compete with eBay. You can also set up an Amazon store or your own website. Many web hosting services, such as Yahoo or GoDaddy, provide you with a professional, quality online store for a monthly fee.
Determine what types of goods to sell, and convey that to your customers. It is easier to get loyal customers if they can categorize you in their minds. Get your customers to always think of you when they look for a particular type of product they would like to buy. Specialize in Depression-era glassware, used books, children's clothes, boots and accessories, textiles, or everything under $5. This is the essence of branding.
Purchase your inventory. Search for goods that have a high likelihood of selling and that you can mark up double or triple the price. Also, consider how to build the costs of shipping and handling into your prices. It's possible that many of your goods will not sell, or that you will have to mark them down to advertise a 'sale' item, so start with a slightly higher price than you might find at Goodwill. Ensure that the goods are clean and defect-free, and be very specific about the condition of the item in your description.
Follow up with your customers. Your online reputation is even more important than your offline reputation, since customers cannot see you or the goods before they buy them. Always focus on customer service, and ensure that your customers are satisfied. If they are, ask them for testimonials or quotes that you can use in your marketing materials.
