Yes, VAnetworking.com received top ranks in StartupNation’s annual Home Based 100 competition, under the category of Boomers Back in Business!

While this alone might not be enough to excite you as someone interested in (or currently) working with a Virtual Assistant, check out what the judges (who included Adam Lowry, co-founder of Method Products, Howard Behar, former President of Starbucks North America and John Jantsch, founder of Duct Tape Marketing in addtion to StartupNation staff) had to say about us:

“Boomers are a whole different ball game than the 20-somethings of today, and that’s partly why they make great assistants. They’re wise, dependable, and professional, have a pre-dotcom work ethic, and have just enough work experience under their belts to know that working from home rules.

VAnetworking.com is a boomer-run business whose success is undeniable. Tawnya Sutherland, based from home of course, has created the world’s largest online social network for Virtual Assistants to gather, learn, share, and grow successful virtual assistant practices.

With outsourcing, time management, and home-based business being hot trends of the day, VAnetworking.com fills a great big need and was a clear stand-out winner for the 2008 Boomers Back in Business award.”

Of course that’s not to say that someone younger or older than Boomer age wouldn’t be a perfect VA for you! The point is, Boomers are Back in Business at VAnetworking.com and we think that’s worth blogging about!
