    About this ebook

    The more virtual your business, the more flexible the hours, the lower the overhead, and the greater the profit potential. Your Virtual Success will help a cash-poor entrepreneur, a small business scrambling for expansion capital, an existing business seeking to improve profits, or an independent professional in any service business.

    Alan Blume's virtual model has resulted in large six-figure deals with people he's never met face to face--and never will-- and small sales that would never be profitable in a traditional business environment. In Your Virtual Success, he demystifies the cost-effective, leading-edge, Internet-based tools that are available to almost everyone, as long as you know what questions to ask and where to look.

    Your Virtual Success shows any entrepreneur, sole proprietor, partnership, or existing business how to:
    • Leverage new Internet tools to grow your business faster and more profitably.
    • Utilize free or low-cost online resources to hire, manage and expand your business.
    • Rapidly create a new, work-from-home virtual business while minimizing the risks of a traditional startup.

      Your Virtual SuccessFinding Profitability in an Online Worldby Alan BlumeI was very excited to review this 240 page savior, and once again it proved to me that when the student is ready the teacher will appear. I like many of us dabble online with my little homemade businesses and I have always had that uneasy feeling in the back of my neck that there was more i could be doing, but I wasn't sure what. Then I would hear and read about all these Internet tools to help grow my business, but had no idea which ones i needed or even how to optimize them for my needs when i did find them.But no longer, because this simple and innovative guide spoke to me in a language I could understand. It was like the author was right there in front of me showing me every step of the way, what to do and when to do it. I feel a lot more confident about how to proceed and just how to address some problems that have been plaguing me for some time. I would recommend this special teacher to anyone needing help breathing life into an existing business or creating a new one. Thanks Alan, for giving me just what I needed when I needed it the most.Love & Light,Riki Frahmann
