Virtual Assistant Networking (VAN), today’s largest online virtual
assistant (VA) organization is pleased to reveal its Premier Partner
Program. This program is designed to provide a variety of tools and
resources to the rapidly growing virtual assistant industry including
discounted memberships to VA organizations and reduced pricing on
materials.
VAN continually strives to increase benefits for their 2800+ members
while still maintaining their high professional standards. According to
Tawnya Sutherland, VAN founder, “This program truly is a win-win
situation. Not only are VAN members receiving substantial discounts on
the products and services they’re most likely to use, but the
affiliates are offered a chance to get in on the ground floor. They
gain exposure through out this large group of virtual professionals and
are provided the opportunity to remain in the spotlight as this
industry continues to explode. VAN has had a 25% increase in membership
over the past two months alone and it’s only expected to continue.”
VAN’s Premier Partners are as diverse as their growing membership.
These partners offer services beneficial to VAs in any stage of their
business. For members just entering the profession VAN has partnered
with The University of Virtual Assistants who provides training of the
highest standards for aspiring VAs. These training programs are also
beneficial to established VAs desiring increased credibility or
diversified skill sets. Other VAs may enjoy joining the newest Premier
Partner, Virtual Divas, an organization focused on aiding female
virtual professionals in adopting a healthier, more balanced lifestyle.
There really is something for all the members.
Through the ongoing formation of strategic alliances VAN seeks to
include a variety of affiliates offering everything from software and
business supplies to coaching and travel packages. VAN reviews partner
applications from businesses and organizations that provide a product
or service beneficial to virtual assistants or small business
entrepreneurs in general. In addition these partners must also be
willing to offer an exclusive discount to VAN members.
