Starting a unique business is always going to be hard for people to accept. Being the first even more so. There are quite a few good sales bibles out there on overcoming objections. One of the things you need to do is to make a list of all the objections and naysayers have told you, and with this list come out with a varied number of responses to those. Are you going to overcome them all, of course not, but you will start to get comfortable showing the benefits of your company to theirs.

As far as scam goes... You'll always get those don't let them get you down.

On a personal angle, about 2 years ago, I saw this new service called Virtual Assistants on this board, I thought they were the ultimate scam. Never heard of it. I thought they were scamming people left and right (i admit I was ignorant).

For the record, I am seriously thinking of hiring a VA and I've referred a few of my realtors that I've done business with to some VA's that deal with real estate. I've completely turned on my views, because of the people on this board. Why because they were the first (in my mind) and they educated, educated, and educated. Not so much promote, but educated and that built trust and value to their services.....

alright, I was rambling, so I'll step off my soapbox now...
