Time

I respect time.
Time is something that can never be made up.... You can never get back those moments, hours, and days.

Every day and moment we do not spend marketing our businesses is business lost.

As an Independent Contractor, you must create your own income. What this means is that; if you don't aggressively market and advertise your business, most likely, you will not generate income.

This is the most difficult part of being an Independent Contractor.
In order to generate income, you must spend time marketing and advertising. If attorneys don't know you have a Virtual Bankruptcy Assistant business, you probably will not get work.

When we started our businesses, we had to make a decision how much time we were going to dedicate to marketing and advertising.

Then, we had to decide how much time we were going to set aside to complete our bankruptcy petition preparations assignments.

For most of us, our first assignment will come while we're still working full time jobs or other independent assignments.

When that happens, our days will be very long. Sometimes 16 hour days.

Don't let that scare you. It will only be for a few months. The reward will be long term assignments and the one thing we're all striving for, independence.

This business will take a lot of time. Our goal at AAVBA, is this, that it will not take as long as it did for those who have been at this business for over 2 years to be successful.

We want everyone to have at least 1 attorney, 1 assignment before the end of the year. But it will take time.

Whatever time it takes, we're here to put in the time.

I'm going to write more about time. It is an important issue to me that has many aspects and affects everything we do.

Until next time,
Vikki
