PersonalAssistantPro.Com - A New Resource Aims to Help Aspiring Personal Assistants, Concierges, and Lifestyle Managers
Announcement of a new website devoted to professional personal assistants, concierges, and lifestyle managers. PersonalAssistantPro.com is designed to meet the growing demand for personal services as executives and their families struggle to meet the challanges of balancing work and family obligations.
(PRWEB) September 22, 2005 -- Need to learn how to charter a Lear Jet? How about what you need to carry to give you the best chance of saving the day for your client when an unexpected event occurs? A new business resource provides operating tips and business information for those wanting to enter the growing profession of serving as a personal assistant to executives, celebrities, and sports figures. And the rich and famous are not the only people who use personal assistants these days. More and more individuals and families in todays time-challenged society are using personal assistants to help meet the demands of balancing work and family obligations.
PersonalAssistantPro.com is a new members-only website that bills itself as a resource for personal assistants, personal concierges, and lifestyle managers." The site contains articles on various aspects of starting and running a personal assistant business -- from how to select a business name and determine what services you will provide - to interviews with actual personal assistants to celebrities. It also includes a members-only discussion forum where assistants can share experiences, advice and expertise.
It tends to be the type of information that can be put to work right away -- everything from new marketing ideas and sample promotions to new and different ways to provide service to clients. Our goal is to provide practical, time and money-saving information that our subscribers can put to work immediately with their clients," according to Walter White, the sites founder. White came up with the idea for the resource after spending the last couple years trying to find useful information for a personal assistant and concierge service that he and his wife own in Memphis, Tennessee.
White reports that PersonalAssistantPro.com not only has U.S. subscribers but subscribers in Canada and Singapore as well-- and thats just in the first week of operation. It really indicates that this type of service is a growing global trend -- and it adds an international perspective to our audience that will greatly enrich our content."
Trends in family characteristics would seem to support White's view of a rapidly growing profession. According to the Families and Work Institute, more than 78% of families are comprised of dual-income earners. Add the fact the U.S. leads the industrialized world in the number of hours worked and the result is a society where time has become perhaps its most precious commodity. Given these statistics, it's easy to see where having a personal assistant could become as common as having someone cut the lawn.
