Secretarial Services

[Flower69]

Hi there

I set up my Secretarial Services last year and have one regular client. I have advertised in our local magazine and papers but am finding it really difficult to find other clients. I only need one or two more as I can only work part-time.

Is anyone else in the same sort of business or can anyone give me some advice on how/where to advertise or find new clients?
Thank you

It is many years ago but when I had a Virtual Assistance practice I belonged to these people - http://allianceofukvirtualassistants.org.uk/ they have a forum and at the time other VAs used to ask for assistance with overflow of work (some even just had businesses outsourcing the owrk to VAs). I've no idea if that is how it still works like that or even if their forums are still ongoing but it is worth a look.

Failing that hang out on business forums, twitter, facebook and so on.

Also put up leaflets (professionally designed one's - they don't have to cost a fortune but they should look glossy and professional) in hotels, universities, libraries and so on.

Good luck.
