Google Me

So many times at the prospect of meeting someone new, having a job interview, or just pure curiosity, we will Google that individual to learn as much as we possibly can. While there may be many hits that come up, Google has just introduced a new service to help you enhance your presence and provide an accurate web-based profile.

The new service is called Google Profiles. As evident by the name, you can create your personal profile, including a picture, links to your website, LinkedIN, a Twitter Feed, even to your podcast, and a direct (hidden) link to your email. An added bonus to your profile, once your profile is verified, it may even be displayed at the bottom of the search page.

Be found and get started today with YOUR Google Profile.

What is the difference between an Online Business Manager and a Virtual Assistant?

Written by Tina Forsyth

It is by far the question I am asked most often, and for good reason.

Although similar in nature, there are some very key differences between the role of Online Business Manager and Virtual Assistant.

If you are a VA or aspiring OBM it’s really important for you to understand these differences, so that you can a) decide which role is the best fit for you and then b) be able to clearly articulate the difference to your clients.

If you are a business owner it is really important for you to get clear on a) what your business actually needs and then b) look at whether you need to hire a VA or OBM to fill that need.

There is alot of ‘grey area’ right now when it comes to understanding the difference in these roles, and so i’ve put together a comparision chart to help illustrate each role and how they work together. (And to also clarify when a business owner is ready to hire either a VA or OBM).
