But there definitely is a right way and a wrong way to go about it.  Believe me I know, I have been there myself and gotten some bad apples. But I stuck with it and before you know it, I finally developed a system that works.  One of them is that I vetted the heck out of them and would go through about 8 for every good one that I would find.

That is why the using assistants through YakWrite.com can save from the 1 out of 8 equation.

We have already vetted our assistants and can provide you with ones that work.

I will be posting more information on how to get the most out of your virtual assistants over the next few days.

In the meantime, if you have any questions, please feel free to leave a comment or use our contact form.

I am going to explain how getting an editor could help you make a lot more money.

This is the edited version of my post. As you will see, there was no miracle.

How can not having an editor be costing you thousands or even tens of thousands of dollars? Let me start out by saying that I am the King of misspellings, bad grammar and improper punctuation, not to mention making up words, purposely misspelling others and being fond of alliteration, so please bear with me as I explain.

First off, I have really bad dyslexia, which is rather ironic as I make my living writing. What happens is the conversation in my head makes perfect sense, until I start typing it out, that is when things get all messed up. Usually, whole sentences come out backwards and spelling and grammar are arbitrary things. Honestly, I look at this as a gift and competitive edge in business, as it allows me to recognize complex situations, make connections and create unique solutions before the vast majority of people do.

With that being said and because most of us truly do judge a book by its cover, a lot of my potential clients will not see past the typos, bad grammar or improper punctuation to realize just how much more profitable I can help make them. Bottom line, if you have typos, bad grammar or improper punctuation, it does not matter how great your product or service is, people will notice and hesitate when buying!

Do not get me wrong, a lot of people do get “it”. At the same time, a lot of potential clients who would normally be lapping up everything I have to offer, cannot get past it. This makes me a bit upset. I have seen it happen, they are going to find some Whanker of a consultant who can spell better but does not know their rear end from a hole in the ground when it comes to what they are doing and that potential client is going to lose out because of it.

Of course it took me a while to realize spelling, grammar and punctuation do matter. While I like to read things that are spelled correctly, I do not hold it against the writer. Unfortunately, a lot of people do. And as business professionals, we need to care about these people. Something this easy to fix, should not be ignored.

What is the answer? Get an Editor.

What a good editor can accomplish in just ten minutes could pay for an entire year of their services and put a lot more money in your pocket! Seriously, if you blog, send out letters or copy, and you are not the world’s best at spelling, grammar, or punctuation, you need to get an editor, and NOW!

Get one that likes to edit. There are people out there that love to do it and that is who you want. It is easy for them too. I am probably on the low side but I pay mine $20 dollars an hour. Crap after this, I am going to have to give mine a raise (yes you are, BTW) . But, whatever I pay them it is an absolute bargain. It still only costs me between 50 cents and $5 per blog post to have one of them look over and get it right.

This means I could pick up a $10,000 client because I spent 50 cents to $5 on editing the post which caught that client’s interest. Where else can you get this type of return?

Think about it. People judge you by your output on the Web these days. This is true in your Blogs, Website, emails, and everything else too.

As I say this, I continue to post to my Blog before I have one of my Editors go through it. They usually are not up at 3:00 AM when I get a cool idea and feel compelled to do a post. But I am slowly disciplining myself to have one of them go over it quickly after I post. I probably won’t ever completely break myself of the habit of posting on my own, but I am using my Editors a lot more now that I figured out how much money not using them is costing me.

I still need to have one of them go through this site with a fine tooth comb. If you look at any of the posts, you can tell quite easily when one of them has looked at it.

Now all of this being said, I do not want you to say you cannot afford an Editor. You can and here is why. I am going to make both of mine available to you. Both have degrees and they are awesome at what they do. They can help make you look like the genius you are.

Now yes, I know you can probably find one a bit cheaper, but you really do get what you pay for in this particular area. I also know you can pay a whole lot more for an Editor that is less competent. It took me quite awhile to find these two.

Here is the deal. You can purchase one hour of their time for $20. You can purchase as many hours as you like. One hour should cover a number of blog posts, pages or copy on your website.

Just click on the button below and they will get you hooked up. If you do not, you will never know how many thousands of dollars you are losing.

Cheers,

Andrew

P. S. Just for fun, compare my “Before” and “After” posts to see what a difference an Editor can make.

I am going to explain how getting one could help you make a lot more money.

This is a two part Blog post. This post is before I have one of my Editors look at it and the next one will be after I have my Editor go through it. It may be a miracle if there are no corrections but, I would not put money on it.

How can not having an editor be costing you thousands or even 10’s of thousands of dollars? Let me start out by saying that I am the King of mis-spellings, bad grammar and punctuation, on top of making up words, purposely mis-spelling others and being fond of alliteration, so bear with me as I explain this for my situation and how it can also affect you.

So, first off I have really bad dyslexia, which is rather ironic because of the fact that I make money from my writing. What happens it the the conversation that I have in my head makes perfect sense, that is until I start to type it out and things get all messed up. Usually, whole sentences will come out backwards and spelling and grammar are arbitrary things. I truly look at this as a gift and a competitive edge because this is just part of the way that my brain is wired and it allows me to see and recognize complex situations and see connections and create answers before a whole lot of other people. But the bottom line is that if you or I have typos, bad grammar and punctuation, it does not matter how great your product or service is, no one is going to buy it!

Here is a fact. Most of us truly do judge a book by it’s cover no matter what we say, a lot of people and clients can’t see past the typo’s and grammar and realize just how much more profit I can help them make.

Outsourcing and using Virtual Assistants can be a key component to not just bringing more profit to your business, but in this new world economy, surviving and staying in business.

With more and more city, state, and federal regulations, taxes, and increased costs of benefits, hiring a new employee is an expensive, time consuming, and outright scary undertaking these days.

Well, YakWrite has a solution for you that is as easy as dialing the phone.

YakWrite has taken the hassle out of finding the right Virtual Assistant(s) by creating Pooled Virtual Assistants or PVA’s and here is why.

We have developed a symbiotic relationship between our VA’s and our clients and have a pool of Virtual Assistants and provide steady work for them.

The VAs benefit from the fact that YakWrite and our clients constantly provide a large steady workload for them and our clients benefit because they have access to a large pool of Virtual Assistants to do their work and do not have to depend on a single VA.

We have negotiated great pricing with our Virtual Assistants which can be passed on to you. So, everyone benefits, which is how Capitalism works when left alone.

This has a double benefit for us and our clients. It helps us find honest and hard working Virtual Assistants and only the best clients.

To become part of our Virtual Assistant Pool and get the benefit of working for YakWrite, they have to agree not to work directly with clients outside the confines of the pool. If we find out about it, we banish them forever from playing in our pond again.

We figure if they can’t keep their word on that, we do not want them dealing with our clients anyway. Not only that, we also banish the client from my pond.

Life is too short to deal with people like that. You may find that you want to adopt your own rules like this too. This is the Pareto Principal on Auto Pilot.

It takes care of both contractors and customers that we don’t want to deal with anyway.

Here is just some of what the people we have access to can do at some amazing prices. Most are less than $7.50 per hour and many below even that!

Here is some more detailed information about our PVAs.

Pooled Virtual Assistants or PVAs

I hired my VA to help me write a daily newsletter about contests. I wrote a document explaining what I expected from the newsletter and a step by step guide to how I did it. I also gave them access to some examples of what I wanted. After a few days, I got the message that their first try was ready. I was pleasantly surprised! It was not perfect yet, but for a first try, it was really great! I gave some feedback and they corrected it.

Since then, every morning when I wake up, I have a beautiful newsletter, ready to send out, waiting for me! The feeling you get when you wake up and see someone has done your work while you were sleeping is absolutely amazing! And that for such a low price! I am really excited about all the possibilities this gives me for the future! Thanks !

Signed, a Happy Customer!

Gert from Belgium,

What is the difference between a Virtual Assistant or, VA, versus a Pooled Virtual Assistant, or PVA? Plainly put, it is reliability.

When you submit your project to us, we then assign it to one of the dozens and dozens of PVAs that we have available, and this Pool is growing. That way if a particular PVA is sick or unavailable, your work still gets done.

If you like the work of a particular PVA we can get them to work with you on your projects and you only need to commit to 10 hours a week.

This system works great for all parties. Because we provide our PVAs with mountains of work, they have job security and do not have to spend time pursuing other clients for their next job.  It works well for YOU because you do not have to worry about your PVA getting sick or not being available and having to hunt down a new one if they are.

We provide PVAs at great prices

Because we will be purchasing thousands of hours of VA time per month, we are passing those savings on to you. Currently the vast majority of our PVAs are $7.50 per hour and under.

Our PVAs are overseas which allows you to take advantage of discrepancies in currency exchanges to bring quality PVAs at the lowest price possible.  We have negotiated with our VAs to give our clients thousands of hours per month. This gives you access to multiple VAs and far better prices than you as an individual could get, plus it allows for instantaneous scalability.  Do you need 10 PVAs in three days for a big project? Well, you do not have to worry about it, you now have access to them with YakWrite.

What can a PVA do? A PVA can do anything that you need done that does not involve actually having to touch anything. Here are just some examples and qualifications.
