Answers to Your Virtual Assistance and Ghostwriting Questions
What is a virtual assistant?
A virtual assistant (VA) is a highly skilled, independent professional who offers ongoing creative and technical business support to you, the client, without being present in your location.

What will a ghostwriter do for me?
A ghostwriter will listen to your ideas, look at things you have already published to learn your style and voice, and ask for your input on goals, themes, formats, and ideal clients. Your ghostwriter will then create content for you that will be in your voice and bear your name. A good ghostwriter will also protect your identity, never sharing examples of work without your permission.
 
How do I work with a VA or ghostwriter?
You exchange ideas, instructions, and information through e-mails, phone contact, or delivery services including the US mail.

What advantages do I get by having a ghostwriter, editor, and virtual assistant from AVA Professional Support Services?

You do what you love best and we take care of content creation and online publishing of your articles, autoresponders, blogs, e-books and other informational products, e-zines/newsletters, Web pages, and business-related social media updates--linking to your articles, blog posts, upcoming events and the like NOT us pretending to be you to carry on conversations with real, unsuspecting people.

What will this ghostwriting, editing, and virtual assistance cost me?
Figure out how much your time is worth. Hiring one person as ghostwriter, editor, and virtual assistant is a great investment because you save hours of your time and, quite possibly, the aggrevation of writing on a deadline. Use the time you save to increase billable hours or do what you love best. We offer a variety of editing and writing options, including a monthly article-editing retainer for $30/article, a monthly blog writing retainer for $60/blog, and a pay-as-you-go option starting at $45/hour.
 
How can I avoid problems?
Clear communication and agreeing upon expectations are top on the list. Planning ahead also helps.


Can I expect a VA to do everything I ask?
No, but we can make your professional life easier by providing you with a variety of needed services.
 
Why would I hire a VA instead of a temp?
A VA is a small business owner who understands multiple aspects of business and can anticipate your needs. As professionals, we know the importance of sterling ethics, good grammar, correct spelling, and providing the best for our customers because it's our business, not just a job.
