Some Useful Things That Can Help You Create A Location Independent Lifestyle.
I often get asked to mention, promote, advertise or feature things and sometimes I want to but I’m aware that people don’t always like to be advertised to, especially in a place where they usually don’t find too much of it…so if you’re one of those people, skip this post and wait for our next article on Monday 
However, if you don’t mind being exposed to some things that are actually very useful for creating your Location Independent life, then read on…
Create an online VA business to fit your life!
Kate Bacon says…
Among the many opportunities for online businesses there are a few that really are potential winners. As a Virtual Assistant (or VA) you can utilise the administrative skills gained in the”real-world” as a PA, Executive Assistant, Secretary or Office Manager, transferring them to provide remote administrative services to clients from the comfort of your own home-office.
How do you make the shift and learn the skills necessary to run a successful business? (It takes more thought than simply setting up a computer with broadband connection!). Kate Bacon of Pier to Peer Coaching (who has run her own VA business for 5 years) has created a unique, specialist training programme for individuals wishing to turn their secretarial skills into a viable business.
Graduates of the VA Business Start Up Course (the virtual group training programme) talk about how they’ve each created their own VA business for very different reasons. To read their inspiring stories, click here >>>
Pier to Peer are offering their next course, commencing Saturday, 3 May at 11:00am BST, as a Spring Special Offer. To take advantage of this reduced price, click here remembering to insert the Reference Code: LW on the secure payment page!
Full Disclosure: I will get a referral fee for this if you use the reference code, but I know Kate from a number of online networks I’m part of and if you’re looking to set up or improve your VA business, she’s the ‘go to’ gal and I’m very happy to recommend her.
Not ready for full-on Location Independent living? How about a sabbatical?
A while ago a good guy called Dan Clements contacted me and we exchange a few emails, exchanged our books and he’s been kind enough to send some link love our way here. I haven’t really had a chance to read his book - Escape 101 - properly until recently but now I have, it’s fantastic.
It’s for anyone who can’t/won’t do the full-on location independent living thing but still wants to experience the benefits of taking some time off from normal life to get a new lease of life. And if you are planning to become a LIP, this route could be a great stepping stone for you to try it out before taking the plunge.
Full Disclosure: I don’t get a referral fee for this at all, just the happy glow from turning you on to something you’ll probably like and find very useful.
Improve Your Writing Skills
Two of my blogging buddies, Emma Bird and Joanna Young, are running a Writing Workshop in Sardinia that I’ve mentioned before. As we all know, for a Location Independent Professional (or for any business person for that matter), writing is a vital skill and writing well is something that can bring you immeasurable benefits. So if you fancy crafting and honing your skills in a sun-drenched European haven this year, check out the Absorbing Writing workshop.
Full Disclosure: I think I might also get a referral fee for this - I can’t remember, but whatever, it’s worth taking a look at anyway even if I don’t
