August 4, 2009: Collette Schultz, mediator of the VA Subcontractor’s Road to Success Group at Virtual Assistant Forums, announces the August 2009 topic – “Software & Products Subcontractors Need to Succeed”. This open forum discussion will answer questions and concerns related to what type of software VAs should consider when setting up their home office; the products that are worth the investment, and the pros and cons of using freeware, shareware and web applications.

“A large majority of service providers don’t realize how much more can be done with the right product in hand. For instance, Microsoft Office is a software application no one should be without; yet many are still using Microsoft Works!

Although Microsoft Works has a Word application and can be saved in a compatible version, it does not offer the flexibility needed by a true professional. To be compatible and provide clients and contractors alike the highest level of quality in the projects being produced, it’s important invest in a power-horse program like Microsoft Office Professional.”, states Collette Schultz.

This is just a sample of the advice Collette Schultz will be sharing on the topic of software and products needed to succeed this month with the VA Subcontractors group. Group participants are encouraged to post their questions, concerns, and related stories based on personal experience.
