Summary:

My name is Ron McDaniel. I am author of the book, Buzzoodle Buzz Marketing and a national SEO speaker and Internet Marketing trainer on topics concerning Social Media, Buzz Marketing, Word of Mouth Marketing and Employee Evangelism.

I started this Virtual Buzz Assistant network because as I spoke on these topics to businesses across the United States, I saw an amazing need for people to have Virtual Marketing Assistants. Many businesses do not have a budget to hire a Buzz Marketing Agency, but they often do have some money to hire a skilled and trusted virtual assistant to help them month after month.

By hiring a Virtual Buzz Assistant from our network, you are getting a Virtual Assistant that has had Buzz Marketing ethics training, Internet Marketing training and has access to me for questions and marketing support.
