WOW! Good question!

My first thought is my computer but that seems so obvious - so maybe it is the "guy" that keeps my computer running so efficiently! Then as I write this I realize it might very well be SPELL CHECK! I also think it is the people who support me & keep me focused on what I do & why I do it - that would be my VA Friend and Mentor - my family & my great clients!

Not sure I answered you question in a helpful way - but really without these things I wouldn't be here every day ready to conquer the world!

Hope you have a GREAT Monday!

As a realtor of 15 years, that's an easy one. An understanding spouse. My wife of 27 years has put up with some serious long hours and with serious long dry spells lately without paychecks.

Second would be a hand-written note or cards and a 42 cent stamp. Find a way to send six a day...every day...and your business will soar. If the post office would give points for hand-written notes to clients, friends, SOI, ect., like Active Rain does, then we'd all be better off.

Since Pont2NLS made your list of "must haves" I am guessing that you have fallen in love with it since we last communicated? Did it do what you wanted in respect to automating your Craigslist posts?

Christine - I love Point 2 and pretty much always have :) No, it doesn't autopost my Craigslist ads and I don't think it ever will. I need an external program to automate the reposting every 45 days.

I love Constant Contact and use it for at least two mailings a month. I notice Picnik isn't on your list. I really love it and use it often for editing. I also like BeFunky.

I use Picnik but only within Flickr. Otherwise I use Microsoft Picture It and Photo Manager. What is BeFunky? Sounds like something fun.

BeFunky is a cartoonizer. You take a photo and turn it into a cartoon and then can add accessories.

It is very easy to use and FREE.
