    In 2008, my wife Kelly and I co-founded Freelance University with the purpose of becoming the #1 go-to training center for Freelancers and VAs from around the globe! As of this year, we have successfully trained over 25,000 Virtual Assistants and Freelancers in more than 75 countries. Kelly and I have had the great privilege of building our Online University while raising our 5 daughters who are the greatest blessings of our lives. I look forward to meeting you and seeing you either in this program or at our University very soon. I leave you with my favorite quote from marketing guru, Seth Godin: "The only worse thing than starting something and failing... is not starting something."

    Although it is very ressoursefull it is not empowering for someone (normally good into research) to know if it could be a good niche to specialise in. It is a very fast survey of different tools (which is great) but it lacks the means to evaluate how we can relate to it as a VA. Since there is no exercices to accomplish in the module...it is hard to trully grab all the content and put it into perspective.
