After I finished my email  for task report i have done  this day, I  feel the same way like yesterday, maybe I don’t still don’t get over of handling my own client. mmmmmm…such a pressure is there on my back. Good thing is that I can deal with it smoothly through  every days of my work.

This was really different from being just a contributor of the task  now I have with my own boss whos gonna email if the task was finished or did I work it right worst if there is something wrong with the task i did.

But I learned a lot of things from my boss, and I also learned to stand on my own, with the responsibility only lies on me with no other is involve well ofcourse there is still our manager to always make sure what we do is right… Above all this I learned that being a VA is really challenging and it help me to improve myself through all the things I learned from my wrongs and it makes me a better person.

Is there really a foot doctor?

•September 19, 2008 • Leave a Comment

I came from school and having some rest on a chair got off my shoes and suffering, ooh… my foot is aching! I really had mistake buying this kind of shoes aside from it has a narrow tip i miscalculated that it will fit my toes when i wore a foot sack. And the result is this having an aching toes.

Then it was suddenly that comes to my mind what can cure this aching it worsen with that ingrown in it. It came to the point i ask ” is there a doctor that take care on this certain part of the body?” . I was wondering if there really is a foot doctor and what could they do to lessen the pain that i feel.

It is my curiosity that push me to know about this foot doctor. Their field of study is called podiatry and those who study this and are practicing this profession are called podiatrist. They focus on the study and treatment on the disorder of the foot, ankle, and the lower leg.

Now i know something on this matter…

Got any idea about SEO?

•September 6, 2008 • Leave a Comment

SEO seems not familiar right? Well no wonder even do I who has no firm computer background or knowledge will really not recognize what this abbreviated word means. My first encounter of this word is when I became exposed to the computer world their  terms and other things about it, like the internet, search engine, blogs, social bookmarking and other things that is about the web. Well I should learn all of this for this is part of my job actually it is my job,

For those who don’t know this thing maybe i can share some that i learn from my experiences at work. There is one client we have that wants us to do as many links on a certain blog so we do it. I was wondering at first why we are doing that thing not until i learned the word Search engine optimization. Search engine optimization or simply SEO is a process of improving the quality of traffic of a certain website. This makes  having more possibility to be read by people or to be open by them. This is how they measure those top ranking on Google rage rank if your website have a lot of traffic or have been read or just visited by many the highest is the possibility that you would hit the top place on Google ranking. But how would people know your website in order for them to open it? here will the the SEO term, by adding links to your site you can help generate traffic to other site there are also other things to do this like social bookmarking, blog promotion.

Hope you will have a clear picture of what SEO is…

It has been four months since i started my career as a VA(virtual assistant) and it did a lot of change and improvement to myself. Those months were very fruitful and i became productive in terms of new knowledge i had acquired in this company. There are so many things I learned everytime I go to the office, things and knowledge that was very new to me. But since this company was just newly established we should work hard in order that each can contribute to the growth of this company.

The EP Virtual Assistants is an outsourcing company which renders services for people who can’t handle their workloads in their business which is not located locally but in other country.This was just officially established two months ago, with the management of Miss Ella Pelayo. She is our mentor of all the things we learned in this career, she is the one who imparted her Call Center experiences to us and we owe to her all the things we learn from being a Virtual Assistant. Aside from her we learn a lot of things from different training we undergone, which is really very helpful to us. From that experiences each of us discover our potentialities in different aspect of the work.  Ep virtual assistants company offer services like Internet research, data entry, social bookmarking, search engine optimization, article writing, appointment settings, telemarketing and customer service, email response handling, powerpoint presentation, spreadsheets and charts, and chatroom promotion.With this services surely your burden will lessen as you work. And this will also makes you effecient in terms of labor cost for you only have to pay for the hourly rate of the services we render and without worrying about such fridge benefit you have to give to your employee. Business wise is you hire VA for the jobs you can’t handle anymore while you can have time for refreshing yourself from a very exhausted days of work.

Since the time technology have its way to development many things have been invented, and there are also modification of the existing one. I, myself enjoy the things that modern technology bring like in transportation, telecommunication, cool and cute devices and many other.

One great example is where a big and a heavy equipment computer were being modified to a very convenient and easy to carry which is the laptop. No wonder that most of businessman would rather prefer to have this after all it has the entire feature that a home computer can offer.

A laptop is also known as notebook computer and notepad. They have liquid crystal display, and they use memory for their random access memory it has a built in keyboard and also have a touchpad or a pointing stick and a mouse.
