"Attention Stay At Home Moms, Traditional Administrative Professionals,
Virtual Assistants Without A Solid Business Plan, Military Families, Baby Boomers,
and Anyone That Has Ever Dreamed Of Starting A Home Based Business."

If you have found this website you might be looking for career options.

I have been there, done that, enjoyed the journey (looking back)
but really wish it hadn't been QUITE so challenging!

Do any of these statements ring familiar in your life right now?

  • Mom, can you help in the classroom at 9am TODAY?
  • It's spring break and you can't get time off from work?
  • I've been off for 12 weeks with my new baby and I really want to work from home now.
  • Today's weather and commute report: cloudy with a chance of 28" of new snowfall.
  • Childcare costs are eating up most of my paycheck each week.
  • I can't apply for a job when I know we're going to be moving again in 3 months.
  • I retired last year and now my 401K has really taken an unexpected plunge.
  • I know the grass isn't any greener if I change j.o.b.s.
  • Every job I apply for has 100+ other applicants.
  • I want to set my own hours.
  • I want to set my own income goals.
  • I want to pick who I work with.
  • I would love to determine how I spend my day.
  • I want to do work that's appreciated and that matters.
  • I wish we had just a little more money in our household budget.
  • When I launched my VA business I thought I would have clients by now.

It's no secret that money and jobs are tight for many people these days.

It's also no secret that many people have great jobs but face challenges every day -- like long and expensive commutes, arranging trusted child care, and dreaming of wanting more.

There are also many of us that simply have a feeling deep inside (a "gut feeling" shall we say) that there is something more that we are supposed to be doing with our career path.

If you have administrative skills and the above information resonates with you,
I've got a solution that will change your life.

If you are ready to take the big step forward and start your very own business, I have created a program that will get you moving toward starting a sustainable Virtual Assistance business.

I have taught this class via live teleseminar to many aspiring VAs
so I know that the system WORKS.

Now, I am making this class available to anyone, regardless of your weekly schedule because you can participate in class anytime and anywhere with my brand new home study version!

    Testimonials From Satisfied VA Colleagues...

    "Jessica was the keystone in starting my Virtual Assistant business. After taking her class, my own company, JSP Virtual Group, was started in nine days. Her class and constant support made getting my business off the ground running. Not only were the materials she included with her class instrumental to my start, her follow up on additional questions was unprecedented. I have already recommended her class to an acquaintance who is also in the beginning stages of starting her own business."

    "Jessica Maes offers a dual perspective on the virtual administrative assistant field. Her seminars cover everything from a review of your skills and whether or not this profession may be right for you to practical and affordable hands-on resources that you may not have considered. She will not only tell you how to begin a business, but will provide you with sources of valuable assistance to expand your business and take it to new levels of sophistication and professionalism.

    Perhaps one of the most valuable services she provides is an introduction to an enthusiastic network of other virtual administrative assistants and what you can learn from their experiences. One of the frequent hazards of "going it alone" in any business is the isolation you may experience, especially in the beginning. By sharing her own experiences and those of others through such tools as her e-newsletter, she provides you with a window to new outlooks and a network of ideas and viewpoints."

    Jessica will stir your enthusiasm and help you establish a productive path.

    How Much Does This Value Packed Class Cost?

    I understand that this guidance and information is very much needed and I also understand that start up businesses don't have a lot of extra funds to work with. With this in mind, I have priced this program as competitively possible...

    For the first 5 aspiring Virtual Assistants that purchase this home study,
    the cost of the system, is only $197 USD!

    This price is completely inclusive - your entire system packaged in a handy binder plus shipping the system to your doorstep (US addresses only - additional shipping costs will apply for an International purchase).

    Two things you must know about this price:

    1. It is 100% temporary and the price WILL increase once the 5th system is purchased. This could be in 5 minutes or 5 hours or 5 days - don't risk saving valuable $!

    2. Shipping will not be included once the price goes up - another bonus for you to act now and save a few dollars!
