Comment : Expat now living in Shanghai seeking assistance for business activities, personal activities on intermittent but semi regular occasions. Date I posted above is just first opportunity please read below.
Hope to find two or so IVAs who can then support me to meet my schedule needs (sometimes at short notice...so reason for probably need more than one).
Some of the types of support needed...will vary on each occasion and may last from one two several days at a time.
a) Airport pick-up of company colleagues visiting Shanghai...provide tour for first time visitor or find some new place to see for some who have visited one or two times....
b) Provide Plans and acommpany for dinner and/or entertainment of visitors and customers according to different expectations of USA visitors to Shanghai and chinese local customers
c) Assist as personal translator during customer dinner and social events to help establish/develop customer relationship
d) Assist as translator for some personal contacts who can speak english but is easier for them to speak mandarin...So the task is to translate what they are saying as I often go out with chinese folks but less than 50% of conversation is in english so it is difficult to stay in conversation...that could be som Valuable Assistance...
e) Assist in private business affairs to contact govt agencies, suppliers, others as needed

Since compatibility and mutual trust are so important I plan to book one day occasions with several IVAs to make selections of those I will use on continuing basis. Thanks!
