Donna, all the misinformation out there about Virtual Assistance ticks me off to no end, too! Especially when a person (like that fellow you wrote about) won’t allow the correct information get out. It can be frustrating.

I do like to think that doing my small part in spreading the correct information helps, though.

The problem stems from people who aren’t Virtual Assistants (VAs) writing about something they know very little or nothing about. In addition, they’ve done very little or no research on the topic. Ticks me off to no end. LOL

I recently read a blog post by a fellow who offered a report about how to hire an administrative assistant or VA. I downloaded his report, and it was very accurate for how to hire an administrative assistant, but it didn’t apply to VAs at all. I said as much in a comment on his blog, but my comment was never published. It’s too bad because his misinformation about VAs will continue to be published and without any corrections or contradictions.
