A Legitimate Marketing Method
You Can't Afford to Ignore

How the Competition is Getting Targeted Web Traffic (and Sales!)

Advertising online is a risky proposition for most small business owners. The Internet audience is a fickle one. Advertising return on investment (ROI) is sporadic at the best of times. Unless of course you can pay to play with the big guns on an authority site that get tons of targeted traffic.

If only you had the money to get that kind of exposure!

But now you can afford to compete.

And you’ll get targeted, controlled exposure to one of the hottest markets online today.

Get Your Products & Services in Front of
8500+ Professional Women in Business

Virtual Assistant Networking Association (VANA), is the Internet’s largest and most active online forum for women running online businesses. Virtual Assistants, or “VAs,” are entrepreneurs who provide a variety of specialized support services to other business owners. VA services range from traditional administrative tasks, like transcription and database management, to specialized marketing support services like web development, search engine optimization, or desktop publishing.

What makes VAs special is that they conduct all business activities in a completely “virtual environment.” That is, they deliver their services via phone, fax, email, and other web-based communication methods. This keeps overhead costs down and leaves more money on the table to invest in strategic products and services to grow their business online.

VAs are an ideal market for business products and services because they are prepared and willing to spend COLD HARD CASH on what you have to offer.

And to think that VANA has 8500+ such VAs in its membership base!

Guaranteed Online Marketing Returns

By now you are probably recognizing what lucrative market this is, and on so many levels.

BUT WHAT ABOUT THEIR CLIENTS? VAs, as an industry, work with thousands of retainer and project clients daily who also shop for the same kinds of quality products and services you sell. And who do you think they’ll turn to for a recommendation when making this purchase? That’s right, their VA!

Virtual Assistants know they need your products and services, not just for their own business but for their clients as well. In fact, a number of them are actively shopping for them as you read this.

If you are looking for a captive audience with money to invest, it doesn’t get much better than the crowd here at Virtual Assistant Networking Association!


They're Asking for Your Products & Services
RIGHT NOW.
What are You Waiting For?

Don’t make them go searching for your wares and risk losing valuable sales to your competitors. You can make your products and services easily available to our VAs. Your business will be endorsed by the support of an organization they already trust. They’ve got the marketing dollars to spend. Make it easy for everyone and put your products and services squarely in front of them every single day that they visit VANA.

Remember, our membership is an ACTIVE one with over 50,000+ posts at our forum to date. It takes multiple views of an ad to elicit the desire to buy. Our members visit VANA often (our senior members—the ones with the deepest pockets—cruise the forum many many, many times per day!).

Contest Sponsors
Donate a prize to one of VANA’s regular online contests and gain valuable exposure as well as rave reviews of your products and services. Nothing says “buy me” like a credible testimonial from a colleague.

No sooner had I signed up for advertising, I immediately started getting sales for my ebook, it was as if the flood gates had opened. Advertising on VANA is simple, hassel free and you see the results right away! If you have a product or service that would appeal to Virtual Assistant's or Virtual Businesses, I highly recommend you advertise them on VANA. You won't regret it!

I was surprised to check my email and discover that I'd made a sale. To be honest I haven't actively promoted this product. I literally just put my affiliate link on my website and surprise...surprise I'd made a sale.

It's apparent that if you have a great product it basically sells itself, and this is certainly a great product for aspiring VAs. I can't wait to see what happens when I really put some effort into promoting this product. It's wonderful to not only promote a product that you believe in, but to be able to make money while doing it is just icing on the cake.
