<li>the different kinds of business entities that will protect your assets;</li>
<li>how to weigh and balance the options to choose what&#8217;s right for you;</li>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Don&#8217;t miss this month&#8217;s free Guest Expert Teleseminar hosted by the <a href="http://www.virtualassistantnetworking.com">Virtual Assistance Chamber of Commerce</a>. Kevin Stirtz, otherwise known as the &#8220;<a href="http://amazingserviceguy.com">Amazing Service Guy</a>,&#8221; is our guest this month.

<p>This session will help you increase loyalty more than ever before. You&#8217;ll learn real-world strategies to make sure you&#8217;re delivering exactly what your customers want and doing it better than anyone else. Afterward, you&#8217;ll have new ideas and tools you can implement right away to increase customer loyalty, customer retention, referrals and profits!</p>
