What is it?

Eco-Office Gals is always looking for small businesses growing green. The Flaunt It! Monday series is where Eco-Office Gals reviews your eco-friendly product and business and offers a giveaway for readers to get to know you, your product and your website and enter for a chance to win your product. I do not take payment for these reviews and giveaways, I may include certain facts at your request about your product but I will not lie or give an opinion that is not my own. It has yet to happen, but should I completely dislike your product I will contact you and give you the option of not having me post the review and giveaway.

Please see detailed Giveaway Guidelines.

Who makes a good sponsor?

If you have a TRULY green product and want it flaunted, you make a good sponsor. If you want an honest, unrehearsed review of your product, you make a good sponsor. My reading audience is mainly female, moms, small business owners, and greenies but we also have a readership of all genders, age range and backgrounds.

What do I need from you?

I need you to contact me with your product or site information. If your product is a good fit you will send the item agreed on to Eco-Office Gals for review. If I do not feel your product, company, organization or group is eco-friendly and something readers would like to know about, I reserve the right to not accept your product and will not do a review or post on my site.

When Eco-Office Gals flaunts you and announces the winner (giveaway runs for 3 days), I will then forward the winning email to you. You will then be responsible for getting the prize out to the winner promptly. Products sent to me for review will not be returned or forwarded to the winner.

What’s in it for you?

You will be flaunted for 3 days. Eco-Office Gals submits the giveaway to various online giveaway sites, twitter and other social networking groups. I drive traffic to your site by asking the reader to visit your site as part of the entry. They will be asked to comment about their favorite product, facts about your product or business or find a location where your product can be found in their area. You are given a 125×125 ad spot in my sidebar for the entire month of the giveaway. I link back to your site several times within the post. My site receives 500-600 unique visits per day during these giveaways. I have a 4/10 Google PR and 210,754 alexa rank. I review not only your product, but your site, customer service and anything else I feel worthy of mention.

My goal for Flaunt It! Monday is quite simple, word of mouth is the best advertising. I want to get my thoughts out about your product. If my readers know about your product they will, hopefully, use the greener choices you bring to them the next time they need to make a purchase.

Flaunt It! Monday Sponsorship

A Virtual Assistant (VA) is an independent entrepreneur providing administrative, creative and/or technical services. Utilizing advanced technological modes of communication and data delivery, a professional VA assists clients in her area of expertise from her own office on a contractual basis.

As a small business owner you may have contemplated hiring support for your office. But the true costs of hiring on-site administrative support personnel can be overwhelming. Reduce your overhead by eliminating the following expenses:

* Wages & Salary
* Paid Leave
* Insurance
* Retirement & Savings
* Legally Required Benefits
* Office Space
* Office Equipment

Partnering with Eco-Office Gals allows you to reduce stress, protect your cash flow and it will help you eliminate those administrative duties. With Eco-Office Gals you will also be doing your part to protect the environment by utilizing paperless and earth friendly options for your small business.

Eco-Office Gals is available to you on a short or long term basis, either part time or full time. I offer a wide scope of services to suit your business needs.

What makes me green?

Some Virtual Assistants will say that being green comes with the business. The main claim being they work from their home rather then driving to the office everyday. Saving gas, office space, etc. I can’t disagree. I worked 35 miles from my house for 5 years, I spent my share of time idling in traffic during rush hour and occupying space to make my living as an Administrative Assistant, making barely enough to pay for daycare and another weeks worth of gas. I’m glad that these green factors came naturally with my decision to start Eco-Office Gals.

However, for many VA’s what come with the territory grows no further. Eco-Office Gals strives to not only provide your small business with your administrative needs, but I am always looking for the best ways to make us all a little greener. I try to give your small business eco-alternatives to everyday administrative needs. I try to encourage electronic communications, e-signed contracts, and other earth friendly alternatives.
As I grow green I share my finding through Eco-Office Gals… why keep it all to myself? I encourage others to share with me as I share with others. If it’s time for your small business to start making green steps, let me join you for the journey.
