Q: Who are you anyway?

A: My name is Sara Carbaugh and I am kind of a dork and pretty awesome and fun if you like that kind of thing. I’ve been to two Star Trek conventions, was hit on by a Klingon at one of them and actually admit in public that I play World of Warcraft. I live in Hamilton, Ohio and am one of “those” Ohio State fans. I live with my daughter, Aerith, and my husband, Josh, – the reasons I started my business and both of whom I love more than anything in the world. I also have a crazy dog named Sid and a sneaky cuddly cat named Watson.

If you want to know more about me subscribe to my blog! I try to post fun and interesting things that are important to me!

Q: Are you a Virtual Assistant?

A: No. I started my virtual career off as a virtual assistant so I still sometimes get asked to go VA related work but I came to the realization that I needed a lot more flexibility with my schedule so I’ve switched over to doing more consulting and training work! Now I work with a smaller number of clients but work on much bigger exciting projects! I bring a fun and quirky atmosphere to every project and I always try to go above and beyond for all of my clients.

Q: Ok…then what do you DO?

A: Ok, let’s not get snippy! I help Actors, Artists, and Authors get online so people can find out about their amazing stuff. I work with you to make Facebook and Twitter a bit less scary, your blog and website a great resource for your clients/customers and set up a strategy that will make it easy for you to keep up with your online marketing on your own! Check out the Work with Me page for an idea of how I might be able to help you get started online!

Q: Who do you work well with?

A: I created a whole page just to answer this question! Are we a good match?

Q: Do you specialize in anything?

A: I focus on creating strategies and systems to help you get your online marketing organized and torture-free! I am also a Certified Virtual Author’s Assistant and I like to focus on scifi/fantasy authors (because I’m a  big scifi fan) but my skills work with any genre and with non-fiction as well as fiction books!

Q: How do you bill clients?

A: I will put together a proposal and a contract for you to sign before any work will be done. You will receive an invoice at the beginning of the project that will need to be paid before any strategy awesomeness is done.

Q: How can I give you money?

A: I use PayPal to send out invoices to you but if you want to use snail mail to send a check that is acceptable as well but I do charge a $25 bounced check fee.

Q: What is the airspeed velocity of an unladen swallow?

A: What do you mean? African or European swallow?
