Festive Fun for the Holidays

Patty
Dost, owner of Time
Is Of The Es-Cents, has over 20 years experience
in the corporate world. She has an extensive background
as an Administrative Assistant, Human Resources Assistant,
and Payroll Administrator. She also has experience in
travel planning and meeting coordination.
Since
officially opening her Virtual Assistant business, Patty
has used her background and also furthered her skills
so that she can assist her clients and establish longterm
business relationships. She enjoys working with small
businesses and Virtual Assistants.
Patty
is also very excited in announcing that she is now an
ABLE Virtual Associate. Yvonne Weld, owner of Able Virtual
Assistant Services, has decided to bring in a team of
Virtual Assistants suitABLE to fit your needs and selected
her out of many other VAs to assist in being ABLE to
meet her clients needs.
With
the knowledge that Patty has and the connections with
other Virtual Assistants, she'll be able to assist you
with whatever your needs may be or find someone that
can.
Below
are testmonials for Patty:
Tawnya
Sutherland, Founder of VAnetworking.com:
Patty
has been my right hand lady and woman of every VA substance
imaginable to me. She is the one behind the scenes keeping
VANA running smoothly and in focus so that all Virtual
Assistants worldwide have a comfortable and friendly
place to network at online. Patty is always there for
us answering questions at the forum from "how to
post your avatars" to "finding out your password
when it's forgotten". She contributes in so many
ways to VANA that I cannot even begin to list them.
Without Patty, VANA would not be the wonderful resource
it is to so many VAs worldwide if not for the work she
does on behalf of all of the members that usually goes
unnoticed by most. We should all be tipping our VA hats
off to Patty Dost, the VA who helps keep over 7,500
members informed and knowledged in the VA industry today.
Angela
Smith of Accu-Assist:
Where would we all be without Patty? She is an integral
member of several VA organizations, and she generously
volunteers her time to keep things running smoothly
behind the scenes. She has been a godsend to a number
of VAs who have come to depend on her for assistance
with both their clients’ projects and their own.
Patty is famous for her organizational skills and efficiency,
and she amazes us all on a daily basis with her ability
to stay on top of everything that’s going on in
the VA community. Thanks for all you do, Patty!
Jaime Lee Mann, Mann
Made Time:
Patty is
a wonderful resource to have in one’s pocket!
I’ve been networking with her for a long time
now, and she is so eager and willing to share her knowledge.
I’ve contracted her for assistance in the past,
and was extremely pleased with her efficiency and ultra
fast turn around time. Patty’s a pleasure to work
with, and many people would be lost without her –
that speaks volumes!
Karen McGreevey of Konceptuality:
“Good
things come to those who wait!”
That’s
what I thought when I learned Patty was to be awarded
December’s VANA VAccolade to recognize her many
accomplishments. It’s safe to say that more than
one of us have discovered that if you need help finding
something on the Internet, you just ask Patty. She’s
the living, breathing “Google”/“Webster”
who handily puts those resources to shame with the Internet
and research skills she possesses. Or, if you have a
project to be polished, wait until you find Patty. Clearly,
she puts others first with her great ideas, her willingness
to be involved, and her honest approach.
I am particularly
pleased Patty is being recognized for her service above
self.
Yvonne Weld of ABLE Virtual
Assistant Services:
Patty is
an awesome support member of my team. Not only does
she complete work in a timely and efficient manner,
but she is always willing to offer suggestions as to
how I can improve the services for my clients. She has
become an integral part of my business and a great friend.
She is always willing to listen as I suggest ways that
I would like to change my business and offer suggestions
to further grow and enhance my business. She truly encompasses
the meaning of a virtual assistant and realizes that
by helping others succeed she herself is succeeding
as well.
Kylie Short of Tilda
Virtual Services:
When I first
started my newsletter, Patty provided much needed proofing
services without asking anything in return. She always
has a kind word and is very helpful to anyone with a
question. I think Patty is a great VA and I will always
remember the helping hand she offered to me in the beginning
of my business.
John Herman of Succeeding
Steps:
Patty is
amazing at finding those little things that you would
normally miss. Her proofreading, teamwork and ability
to work in a changing environment have been an asset
to many of our projects.
Sally Kuhlman
of Virtual
Simplicity:
Patty is
awesome. She is a go to person. Whenever I have a question
about just about anything I ask Patty first. She knows
what is up in the VA world and beyond. She's very smart,
does superb client work and is always professional.
She's thoughtful and is a great friend. Thanks for all
you do Patty!
Yvonne McCoy of Swift
Office Services LLC:
Not only
does Patty present the friendly, welcoming and professional
face of VANA, she also became a trusted ally this summer
when I left my clients in her care during my vacation.
I was able to relax and enjoy my vacation knowing that
I had left my clients in her capable hands.
A Gift From
Santa VANA ...
Patty, in
appreciation for everything you’ve done for me
over the past year, I’d like to let you know that
if you can find a way to Toronto in May, to attend the
ForumonVirtualAssistance, I’ve found a way to
have a free ticket waiting for you at the door to enter
and enjoy all the facilitators and fun that will be
had at this eventful forum. We can’t wait to see
you there and hope you can find a way to get your butt
there in May!
