Why portable careers

Well portable businesses suit those that move around a lot, ie: your spouse moves a lot due to his/her work commitments and you would prefer a business that can travel with you. Such as a military spouse.

A virtual assistant business travels with you as you can still service your clients via email, fax, internet, phone, courier, ordinary mail, etc. You don't need to see your clients at all and still run a very profitable business.

A portable business also suits those who move around during the day a lot, you can still work on your laptop be it when you are visiting family or going off on holidays. I know, but I mean an hour or so a day when on holidays.

Or a virtual assistant's portable business can mean that she can come out of her office and do some work on the laptop in the family room whilst watching the kids play, etc.

Such a career is a fantastic option where we want flexiblity to do it all these days.
