			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>We see all kinds of products for stretch mark removal, in the physical realm, but what about the business realm? Did you know your business has stretch marks? Maybe this isnt&#8217; a real pretty picture to paint, but it gets the point across.</p>
<p>Stretch marks show growth and if your business is growing there should be proof. What steps are you taking to insure that your business is growing?Think back to the first year in your business, you didn&#8217;t really have any task to outsource. You probably didn&#8217;t have a need for a bookkeeper or an accountant.Now think to your second year in business; you feel the &#8220;time crunch&#8221; on certain tasks, you can&#8217;t keep up with your own record keeping, you don&#8217;t have time to write your own articles anymore let alone submit those articles to all of the submission directories.</p>
<p>Now you&#8217;re into your third year of business, you find that you really need help and NOW! But where do go to find help? What do you begin to outsource?</p>
<p>Besides doing your basic internet research for &#8220;virtual assistant&#8221; or &#8220;virtual assistance&#8221;, why not ask fellow entrepreneurs and online business owners for their recommendations. You can visit virtual assistant forums and see what virtual assistants are frequenting the board.</p>

<h1><strong>“10 Reasons to Market Your Business with Articles”</strong></h1>
<p>Outsourcing (delegating) a minimum of 5 hours of article marketing per month can benefit your business.  Perhaps if you have a better understanding behind the “why” you should be marketing your business with articles, then this task will never see the end of your to-do list again.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><strong>Day 4: Get Me Exposed!</strong></p>
<p style="text-align: left;"><strong><a rel="attachment wp-att-929" href="http://www.buckeyeva.com/2009/11/day-4-get-me-exposed/a-neon-open-sign-glowing-red-in-the-window-of-a-restaurant-2/"><img class="alignleft size-thumbnail wp-image-929" title="Open for Business" src="http://www.buckeyeva.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/open1-150x114.jpg" alt="Open for Business" width="150" height="114" /></a></strong></p>
<p style="text-align: left;">Once your article is published, it can easily be seen by thousands of people around the globe.  Make sure you include a &#8220;call to action&#8221; in your author bio area, at the end of each article. This &#8220;call to action&#8221; should specifically state that you want your potential client to visit your website.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">Having your website visited by thousands? Now that&#8217;s exposure!<strong><br />

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Today is Day #3 of a 10 day series entitled :</p>
<h1><strong>“10 Reasons to Market Your Business with Articles”</strong></h1>
<p>Outsourcing (delegating) a minimum of 5 hours of article marketing per month can benefit your business.  Perhaps if you have a better understanding behind the “why” you should be marketing your business with articles, then this task will never see the end of your to-do list again.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><strong>Day 3: Bring Me Traffic!<br />
</strong></p>
<p><a rel="attachment wp-att-921" href="http://www.buckeyeva.com/2009/11/day-3-bring-me-traffic/cb005227-2/"><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-921" title="Website Traffic" src="http://www.buckeyeva.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/traffic1.jpg" alt="Website Traffic" width="86" height="128" /></a></p>
<p>Another benefit of regular article marketing is the potential it has to increase your website traffic. Having a professional website is important but it doesn&#8217;t stop there! You have to get your website seen by the search engines, but most importantly, your potential clients. Once your article is published via an article directory, that reader may decide to place your article in their ezine , blog or website. When your reader places your article in-front of their readers, those readers have the option to visit your website via the information in your Bio.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Outsourcing is the exchange of money for time. The older business trend would have been to read over resume and applications,  interview possible employees then take more time to hire that person. The newer business way is to seek a virtual assistant, someone that works remotely from their own office. This saves you time and money without sacrificing your business success.</p>
<p>By outsourcing business related tasks that take up quite a bit of your time, you can actually regain those lost hours and still see the business growth you desire. I&#8217;ve compiled a &#8220;Top 5 List&#8221; of the most outsourceable tasks that I&#8217;ve compiled over the past year.</p>
<p>Top 5 Time Consuming Tasks may include:</p>
<ul>
<li>Transcription</li>
<li>Customer Service</li>
<li>Email Support</li>
<li><a href="http://www.buckeyeva.com/services">Online Marketing</a></li>
<li>WordPress Set-up</li>
</ul>
<p>The benefits of outsourcing, even the smallest task, can open new doors for you to further your business goals. By outsourcing the &#8220;busy&#8221; work to an assistant, you are opening up your schedule for that needed vacation or speaking opportunity.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>As your business grows, your time goes! Think about it, in the early start of your business you found yourself (probably) staring at your website, taping your fingers thinking &#8220;what do I do to grow my business&#8221;? Now that you have seen a growth in your business, you might be finding yourself staring at a desk piled high (perhaps the pile is sitting on your office floor and the top of the pile is at desk level?) wonder &#8220;how do I get more time for my growing business&#8221;?</p>

<p>They all outsource something, every day, on a daily basis.</p>
<p>You don&#8217;t think they do every business task or daily living task themselves, do you?</p>
<p>I bet the outsourcing list would look like this:</p>
<ul>
<li>Dog Walking</li>
<li>Maid Service</li>
<li>Butler</li>
<li>PR professional</li>
<li>Personal Shopper</li>
<li>Twitter Updates</li>
<li>Social Networking Updates</li>

<li><a href="http://www.buckeyeva.com/services/">Research</a></li>
<li>Customer Service</li>

<p>I believe some wealthy business persons do the above tasks, occasionally, but not day in and day out.</p>
