			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Last Thursday, I was interviewed by Corporate Fugitive Sherri Garrity on a fun call for business owners on how to get and work with a Virtual Assistant. We had a really great time (always love talking with Sherri!) and hopefully I was able to shed some light on a few conceptions and misconceptions out there. If you&#8217;d like to take a listen, here&#8217;s the recording (it&#8217;s about an hour long):</p>
<p><!-- AudioAcrobat.com Player code BEGIN --></p>
<div class="aaplayer"><iframe src="http://www.audioacrobat.com/playweb?audioid=Pf20be721bce52804686b0a215b0b653cYVtwQVREY2Jw&amp;buffer=5&amp;fc=007692&amp;pc=AAAAFF&amp;kc=888800&amp;bc=FFFFFF&amp;brand=1&amp;player=ap03" height="20" width="164" frameborder="0" scrolling="no"></iframe></div>
<p><!-- AudioAcrobat.com Player code END --></p>
<p><strong>And don&#8217;t forget&#8230; If you&#8217;re a Virtual Assistant, you simply must take part in the  <a href="http://www.virtualassistantnetworking.com/survey.htm" target="_blank">2009 Virtual Assistant Industry Survey</a>. Stand up and be counted!<br />
