Who could be more environmentally friendly and green than a Virtual Assistant? We don’t use gas to drive to an office each day, we don’t sit in traffic with our cars emitting fumes. Many of us, like myself, opt for a “paperless” business, so we save trees. I scan everything I can and save in .pdf format on my computer. I have very little paper.

So, I am a natural “Eco VA” or “Green VA”!

When an ecologically and environmentally friendly entrepreneur contracts a Virtual Assistant, they form a “bonded partnership” as they collectively are working to save the worlds resources. In addition, the VA (Virtual Assistant) is saving the client money as she pays her own taxes and only works for time on task. The client has no employee related expenses such as insurance, vacation pay, etc.

It’s truly a win-win situation for all!
