So what does this actually mean?

Well it is not a recommendation or endorsement of our services (but you guys know we are great anyway) or any kind of quality control.

What it IS is verification that this website is owned by an Australian registered business and operated by that business right here in Australia.

Why did Butterflies Secretarial Solutions want to have a certified website?

It is a way to let people know they are purchasing services from a genuine Australian business. There is a growing trend (not just in the VA industry) for offshore operators to set up websites that look to be from one country but are actually being run from another. I do not like this method of operating and I want people to know what they are getting when they are looking at my site. Giving people the knowledge to make informed decisions is extremely helpful when you are a service seeker.

If you are looking for Australian goods and services online, look for the gold seal and you can be sure that you are purchasing from an Australian business.

If you have used our Virtual Assistant services, you might like to add a star rating to the Australian Certified Website to assist our credibility. You can do that by following this link – Review Butterflies Secretarial Solutions on Australian Certified Website.

VAcertified.com is the new standard for Virtual Assistant Certification which clients worldwide can use to benchmark the services they are looking for in a Virtual Assistant (VA). The first internationally recognized VA certification, VAcertified.com offers a carefully calibrated and unbiased assessment of a VA’s skills, education, professional experience and industry contributions to gain business owners’ confidence in the skills of certified VAs.

To qualify for the certification, I was evaluated by 13 industry leaders and specialists from the four corners of the world on a broad spectrum of personal and professional traits pertaining to my expertise and professional ethic.

For business owners and managers who may have considered outsourcing support tasks to a VA in the past but could not justify the understandable risk of hiring an unknown, VA certification provides an assurance that the VA in question has the skills and experience needed.

In applying for and receiving this certification, I went through a process of reflection on why I became a VA, what my business and my clients mean to me and an assessment of where the business is heading. I’ve come up with some interesting ideas and shall reveal more as they evolve so stay tuned for that!

I’d like to take a moment to thank my lovely clients for providing testimonials and being willing to be contacted by the industry panel. Your support is deeply appreciated.
