Good Morning America’s Clip on Virtual Assistants

or better titled:

I just wrote an incredibly long piece on this clip, describing how GMA did NOT capture the essence of what real virtual assistants do, going into great detail about how VA’s do it better than what they showed, but every time I looked at it, I couldn’t help thinking that I was being just a bit snarky.

So I waited a day and tried to rewrite it.  Still didn’t like the essence of it.

I’ve narrowed it down to this:

Dear Good Morning America:

Way to NOT capture what real Virtual Assistants do and bundle the term “Virtual Assistants” to 3 cheap companies that didn’t do a good job.  (of course they didn’t – what do you want for $2?)

OK – feel myself getting snarky again.  I’ll end with:  I’m just hoping people won’t judge all VA’s by that clip and not find out more about what we really do.

It’s always disappointing when the media doesn’t do a good job, isn’t it?  Shame on you, George!!
