CategoriesSA's First Recession in Seventeen Years
By E Playford Sleigh, 12.03.09 | Comments
Although - like the ripples of a pebble tossed into a pond - it is clear that South Africa could not hope to escape the repercussions of the recent US economic meltdown. And so far it appears that the SA manufacturing community has been the hardest hit.
Yet, in my estimation, and for many a long year, I have been aware that the majority of South African companies are nowhere near being 'abreast of the worldwide times'. Especially, that is, when it comes to instituting the economically and ecologically-friendly policy of employing (outsourced) Internet-savvy 'virtual assistants' - who have the experience, skills and abilities to assist SA companies in innumerable ways.
And for example - undertaking indepth (and ongoing) Internet searches for the purposes of FINDING (potential) customers (and buyers) for their products! Linking SA companies - that have (or are working on) 'innovative technologies' - with overseas companies seeking answers to their (technological) problems, etc.
In truth, the list of services that one (wide-awake) South African independent virtual contractor, namely: The Search Party, provides - goes on ...
And, yes, the South African Business Community! In that many companies in, e.g., the United States refuse to employ virtual assistants who are not citizens of the United States. And that leaves your (often highly capable) fellow South Africans completely 'out in the cold.' Your help, in employing local virtual assistants to help you, would be much appreciated!
Sincerest thanks and looking forward to being of (virtual, and very real) service to YOU soon.
