I was on holiday in France when I received a call on my mobile phone – the caller’s phone number meant nothing to me.
“Hello”, said Barbara, “I understand you are a Virtual PA and I believe we may need you to help in our business.”
Having picked myself off the floor, I answered rather unprofessionally “well, yes”!
Barbara went on to describe her professional business, which was miles away from me, in the Worcestershire countryside. I was immediately drawn to the “The Job” before I even new the details!
Once I started to focus she told me a bit about what they required. Transcription from voice files, word processing, editing, data entry, typing from pdf to Word.
It was absolutely what I loved doing.
I then asked her where she had got my details from. You got it – “The WiRE website Directory”.
She asked me to send her my terms and conditions and said she would be in touch after a staff meeting, the following week.
Well – Barbara came back to me and asked me to visit the office, which I did. It was a beautiful day in wonderful countryside.
A week later, I was taken on and have been having great fun ever since! Let’s face it WiRE had turned up trumps for me! Thank you WiRE.
