Thank you so much for visiting JERPAT’S Virtual Professional Blog. I am so excited to join the world of blogging and sharing with others the trials and tribulations of being a virtual professional. I think we are such a unique species of individuals, and are blessed to be able to connect with others all over the world.
I joined the virtual world in 2003 when I founded my Virtual Assistance business so that I could stay home with my daughter. In 2005, I started my coaching training program to help virtual assistants to develop and grow their businesses (I was a teacher before my virtual life). It has been an amazing journey, and I have met so many terrific people!
I am the mother of 3 (5, 3, and 1 – yes, I am crazy!) and the wife to my amazing husband and business partner, Jerome.
My hope that is through our blog you will find useful tips and ideas that will help you have as amazing of a journey as I have had, as well as connect with some amazing people.
I am always happy to talk with anyone who has questions, so please feel free to contact us or respond to one of the postings with your questions!
May your virtual journey be blessed,
Patty Benton, BA, Certified Life Coach
