Thanks for the great article Cathy!

I have Microsoft Security Essentials on one computer and Avast on another and they have both been great (and they are both free).

Thanks for the input. At this time none of my clients fax me anything, so it's not worth keeping, but if someone does want to, I'll scout out the business services near my home and have that information if needed

How important is it to have a fax number? I have an account with RingCentral, but very rarely use it - usually for outgoing faxes. My clients always email me any information they want me to have. I know there are services for free outgoing faxes, but I am having trouble "letting go" of my fax number even though the money can be more useful elsewhere. I appreciate any input

I've been using LogMeIn Free and it works great. Although, if your client has a Mac, one drawback is that it won't wake a sleeping Mac on a wireless network (client does not want to leave computer "awake" all day, so we have to coordinate when I will be logging in).

I am just starting to look into a logo for my business and this information is really helpful. Thanks!

Thanks for the Welcome! Candy - I'll be getting in touch once I'm settled. I'm looking forward to joining your local group!

Hi All! My name is Lisa Bermudez, and my website is www.LABVirtualServices.com. I have just started my VA business. I offer a wide range of admin support, but my specialty is bookkeeping (I am a Certified Quickbooks ProAdvisor). I currently live in Oxnard, CA, but plan on moving to Leander, TX this summer. I have been married for almost 19 years and have 3 kids (12, 7, 5). My favorite thing to do is read, when I can find the time. I did a lot of research on different VA associations, etc. and this looked like the best. I look forward to learning as much as I can and getting to know other VA's.
