I’ve been talking for a long time about doing a report on Virtual Assistants and, finally, here it is.

I told my newsletter subscribers first because I'd been promising to get it finished for a good couple of months . . . And I like to keep my promises.

If you think it could be something that might suit you, I’d very much appreciate your feedback on the report, so tell us what you think of it.

Turning the screw on the Scammers

In her latest newsletter Lynne O’Connor who runs HomeworkingUK.com has an item about a company called Neath Mailing Services. A few people have written to me about this bunch of crooks and at last they are getting some adverse media attention.

With her permission, here’s an extract from the newsletter, which came as plea for help about the company.

Neath Mailing Services - plea for experiences

I've received the following self explanatory e-mail from BBC Radio Cymru regarding Neath Mailing Services, one of the more prolific envelope scams doing the rounds. If you've had any experience with this company, would you please contact Catrin to help her expose this company once and for all.”

After seeing your website and your warnings about the above company I would like to investigate them further for a Welsh language consumer programme.

Could you forward my request for more information to those who have complained about Neath Mailing Services - I would love to speak to them (and the ones that were nearly duped). Obviously I don't expect you to give me their personal detail without their consent, but I would be very grateful if you pass my details on to them, I can be contacted during office hours on the number below, or email! (If you could confirm that you're willing to do this it would also be very helpful)

Thank you
Catrin Roberts

I’ve written to Catrin offering support and asked if there was any possibility of getting an English transcript of the radio broadcast because I’m sure everyone will want to know what transpires.

If you have ANY information about this crowd, get in touch with Catrin at the addresses above and, please, don’t forget to mention BIZ-Banana.com!

I’ve been shamelessly promoting my review of Make Your Site Sell! 2002. Not only because I get a commission on any sales of the E-book from SiteSell (which is always very nice) but because ANYONE who is in any way interested in starting their own on-line business must at least be made aware of this book.

Honestly, I don’t care if you get the book through BIZ-Banana.com or somewhere else, but, sooner or later, you’re going to need this absolute gem.

By way of introduction to MYSS! 2002 I’ve managed to get a free trial download the book for you.

And it’s not just a couple of small extracts, either. . .

. . .You get the first FOUR full chapters, the complete table of contents (TOC) and lots, LOTS more besides.

You can download it directly from this link

Here’s a link to our own EXCLUSIVE review, in case you missed it last time and if you want more information before you download.

Please remember, there’s absolutely NO OBLIGATION so you have nothing to lose. Not to be missed!

The Homeworking For All Webring
back to headlines

It only seems like a couple of days ago that Caroline Tresman of Homeworking.com asked me if I fancied joining her new Webring. I was privileged to be the first to sign up and I’ve been promising her for ages that I’d re-sign when BIZ-Banana was resurrected as a .COM a few months ago.

It’s great to be back and you can find the link to the Ring at the bottom of the index page. Just by exploring it, you will find a few excellent sources of information on how to work from home so please support this Webring.

On another tack, Caroline has just changed over to a new newsletter host (seems to be a habit these days) so we’ll give her a mention, too. Here’s her index page if you want to sign up:
