Yesterday, I contacted my Virtual Assistant, Sahnaz, with a list of important dates. These are birthdays of various people in my family. She is to call me a week in advance to remind me of the upcoming birthday and suggest a gift. Upon my approval, she will then proceed to shop for each member within a given price range.
I kept the first assignment simple and long-term as India recently lost Internet service due to a cable break somewhere in Egypt. I got an email from GetFriday.com, where Sahnaz works, informing me of the Internet interruption. I still have more hours to go for assignments this month. I’ll be assigninig business-related tasks mostly.
