Houston Virtual Assistant Company Observes Auspicious Occasion - ’Doing Business in Your Bathrobe Day’

HOUSTON, TX, January 30, 2006 -- “Honoring the humble bathrobe symbolizes the incredible contribution home-based business owners make to our economy while operating in a non-traditional work environment,” says Ron Clarke, co-owner with son Iain of Houston-based Intelligent Office. The new Houston franchise is part of a Colorado-based company that has locations nationwide. Houston Intelligent Office opened six months ago in a high-rise office building near Neiman Marcus in the Galleria.

“We congratulate Kristi Tamsevicius, the Illinois home-based business expert who created ’Doing Business in Your Bathrobe Day’ five years ago,” says Clarke. “With one clever catchphrase she captured the essence of freedom and flexibility that work-at-home professionals enjoy every day. Our focus at Intelligent Office is on the hundreds of thousands of home-based Houston entrepreneurs who are literally transforming the way business is done in this city.”

Intelligent Office specializes in providing executive-level remote receptionist support for less than $300 a month to home-based business owners who compete one-on-one with large traditional store-front companies.

“The stigma of working from home is vanishing,” says Clarke. “Image is a part of marketing and with the right technology support in place, small company owners can dress-for-success in their bathrobes and still compete with the big boys for big jobs. We’re proud to be part of this exciting revolution taking place in Houston and around the nation.”

Clarke says recent U.S. Department of Labor statistics reveal that home-based workers constitute a $427 billion a year industry, 52 percent of all small firms in the United States. “That’s more than the pharmaceutical industry, food industry, and consumer goods industry combined,” he says.

To celebrate “Doing Business in Your Bathrobe Day,” Houston Intelligent Office will host an informal reception from noon to 2 PM on February 12th in honor of home-based entrepreneurs who want to learn more about the latest in remote office technology. “We’ll take this opportunity to introduce our guests to Marisa and Amber, our professionally-trained remote receptionists who are at the very hub of everything we do. Intelligent Office is about technology, but we’re also about the contribution that polished, experienced and professional office staff makes to a well-run business.”
