As a child, it was always proper Christmas list etiquette to disregard all thoughts of gifts being too big or too small, too expensive or too cheap. When it came to compiling the perfect Christmas Wish list it was all about what you wished for. As an adult I often find that hard to do. So here is my attempt at a ‘proper’ wish list for my Virtual Assistance Business.

Dear Santa,

I do believe you’ll find my name on the ‘Nice’ list this year, filed under home business owners and virtual assistants. Following is a list of items I’d be thrilled and thankful to receive as gifts this holiday season.

1. Apple MacBook Pro - 4 GB of RAM please, as virtual assistants tend to use lots of technology at the same time. Please include Office for Mac if you don’t mind, as I really do rely on it.

2. A Verizon Wireless Express Card - No more trying to find wi-fi hotspots. I would truly be able to work from anywhere. Even the beach.

3. Timbuk2 Laptop Messenger Bag - A durable Laptop Messenger bag in girly geek pink and gray,

4. Online Business School from Itty Biz - I love to learn. After reading Naomi’s posts at Itty Biz, I’m positive this course has plenty to teach me about making my business better.

5. SolidTek DigiMemo 692 Digital Notepad with Memory - In my attempt to make my business as green as possible, a digital notepad would alleviate all of those spiral notepads and post it notes scattered around my office, plus it would allow me to store everything electronically. Never another misplaced message or post it note.

6. A Girly Home Office in a new home in the North Carolina foothills - Don’t get me wrong, I’m enjoying my temporary home with my friend in Richmond, Virginia, but my goal is to find a new home somewhere nestled serenely near the mountains of North Carolina.

There you have it Santa Claus, I appreciate your time and consideration.

Sincerely, T. Hilton
