Remember, you’re on duty 24/7

If you operate a business online and have a web presence, it’s important to remember you’re on duty 24/7.  You might not be at the computer all of those hours, but your written words are.  So always having your best on display is important, no matter where you venture on the web.

Email, website, Facebook, LinkedIn, Google+ and other social media tools, chat forums, discussion groups.  Doesn’t matter really where, if it’s online and potential clients or business associates can read it, then you’re on show.

So it makes sense to read carefully what you’ve written before hitting send or publish.  Especially if you are operating as a Virtual Assistant.  Clients look to you for help with their documents and other items that consist of the written word.  What you have on display is an example to them of what you could be doing for them.
