Virtual Business Owner Celebrates Ten Years in Business

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
(Free-Press-Release.com) February 17, 2010 -- Ten years ago, Lyn Prowse-Bishop made the difficult decision to quit her full-time job in the corporate world. Today she is a successful entrepreneur in the Virtual Assistant Industry.

Since 2000, Prowse-Bishop has been the driving force behind Executive Stress Office Support (eSOS). The Australian work-at-home-mom says she decided to start her own business to spend more time with her newly created family. “Like a lot of new mothers, I was faced with the difficult decision of having to go back to work because there wasn’t enough income coming into the home.” Prowse-Bishop says it seemed like a good idea to take her Executive and Personal Assistant skills and develop her own business.

That good idea has allowed Prowse-Bishop to ride out the economic storm and make it to ten years. “With so many small and micro businesses going under in the first 5 years that's a pretty big accomplishment,” she says.

This month, as celebration of ten years in business, Prowse-Bishop plans to honor the top 10 clients who have been with her the longest with a special gift of appreciation. “If it weren’t for them, I couldn’t have survived as long as I have.
