So, back in 2006, I started a blog for admins called The Executive Assistant’s Toolbox, where I shared tips and tricks for success in the field. Shockingly, that blog got really popular really fast. My blog was actually purchased by a start-up company (an online community for admins) and I was hired to help build it.

But this is one concept that’s so important, it deserves a blog post of its very own. Take for example an administrative professional whose role it is to purchase office supplies. Purchasing in bulk when appropriate to increase savings. Strategically purchasing to take advantage of sales, rebates and discounts.

If someone has poor etiquette and you feel disrespected, you probably aren’t going to trust him or her with your purchase. Members have the option to sign up and receive blog posts directly in their email inbox as soon as they are published. When was the last time you bought something from someone you didn’t like? It doesn’t happen.

So look out for more frequent blog posts in the near future. Several years ago, another website I created was purchased by a company called OfficeArrow and, in the process, I was hired to be the Managing Editor there. For now, though, I wanted to share a little bit about what I’ve been doing and what I’ve learned recently.
