Specialized Expertise: Many VAs in 2026 are specialists, not generalists—hiring one specifically for PPC management or A+ Content design often yields a higher ROI than trying to learn those complex skills yourself. Cost-Effective Scalability: You can scale your workforce up during peak seasons (like Prime Day) and down during lulls without the overhead of full-time employee benefits or office space. **Instagram Handle** @wizardsofecom **Youtube Channel** https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCp8itN-dnqJ1AbANGCe1qIA **Linkedin** [www.linkedin.com/in/wizardsofecom](https://app.process.st/www.linkedin.com/in/wizardsofecom) **ALL meetups are always 100% FREE** If you want to access the recording of this event and all previous events you can do so at [academy.wizardsofecom.com](https://academy.wizardsofecom.com/) #### This Meetup event is sponsored by [#SellersFi](https://sellersfi.com/?aff=bluebird) [#PickFu](https://www.pickfu.com/wizardsofamazon) [#RimorCorp](http://www.rimorcorp.com/) [#Rivly](https://rivly.com/) [#AVASK](https://www.avaskgroup.com/) [#EcommerceChris](https://www.ecommercechris.com/) [#ConnectedCommerceCouncil](https://connectedcouncil.org/join) [ ](https://junglescout.com/)[#Alibaba. ](https://www.alibaba.com/?spm=a27aq.cp_15.scGlobalHomeHeader.4.7f804e30A4rcHw&tracelog=mkt_woe).[#Levanta](https://get.levanta.io/20off/woe?utm_campaign=20%25%20off%20Gold%20Plan&utm_source=Wizards-Of-Ecom&utm_medium=member-offer) [#SellerAssistant ](https://www.sellerassistant.app/?utm_source=wizardsofecom&utm_medium=partner&utm_campaign=partnership) [#Unicargo](https://www.unicargo.com/?utm_source=wizardscommunity&utm_medium=traffic&utm_campaign=wizards_traffic) [#GETIDA](https://online.getida.com/woe) [ ](http://sellerboard.com/woe)[#KLAVIYO.](https://www.klaviyo.com/partner/signup?utm_source=001Nu00000LBYK6IAP&utm_medium=partner) #### [#CPA By Choice](https://www.cpabychoice.com/woe) Get your finances in order and reclaim your time — partner with CPA By Choice today so you can focus on what matters while we handle your accounting, tax and financial needs.[https://www.cpabychoice.com/woe](https://www.cpabychoice.com/woe) Get up to $1 Million of working capital in as little as 48 hrs. to take your eCommerce business to the next level of growth with SellersFi [https://sellersfi.com/?aff=bluebird](https://sellersfi.com/?aff=bluebird) AVASK is the #1 provider in helping to expand your eCommerce business internationally, with our proven track record of supplying clients a first class service with VAT compliance, EPR, Customs and accounting services.

Come assist Van Buren Shelter (https://ymcacolumbus.org/locations/vanburen) staff in serving dinners and cleaning up on the 3rd Tuesday of each month. Dinner for the women is 5-6 pm and for the families is 6:15-7:15 pm. There is ample free parking available in the shelter's lot. The recommended area to park is in green in the image above. There will be a new entrance for the time being. We are asking all volunteers to enter through the Donation Dock door, the orange mark on the image above. This door is located between the Single Adults and Family Shelter. You will see 2 large garage doors with a large green trash compactor in the center. Please head to the closest garage door to the building wall, with a ramp leading up. There, you will see a door with a sign stating instructions on how to enter the building. Please ring the doorbell, and a staff member will come and escort you into the building. If a staff member takes longer than 5 minutes, please call the front desk at 614-689-2020. This is a new process for us, and we do not want to keep you waiting! We appreciate your patience as we navigate this temporary change. The shelter needs a volunteer count the day before the event so sign-up ends Monday at 4:50 PM. Afterwards some of us go to the Omnipresent Atheists Weekly Meetup in progress to have a bit to eat or drink (http://www.meetup.com/omnipresentatheists/). Volunteers must be 14 or older. Since we will be working around families, the YMCA does not permit volunteering by individuals with convictions for violent or sexual crimes. The YMCA reserves the right to run background checks on volunteers. For questions, comment on this page or contact: Andrew, awhit12@yahoo.com, (614)937-5802 (cell). Please let Andrew know if you volunteer anytime other than our COUNT events so that he can count your hours toward our service record.

Columbus Code & Coffee is an inclusive, informal co-working session. People of all skill levels attend, and we love it that way. Many people (optionally) bring projects to work on, and many other people (optionally) socialize the entire time. It's entirely up to you! **What to Expect at the Intro Circle** \~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~ Near the beginning of the event (1:30 pm), we do a standup: * Organizer announcements, updates, and logistics Round 1 - (7 secs max): * Your name * What you're working on * What you can help others with Round 2: * Community events you wanna plug. If none, that's cool too. Round 3: * Job opportunities you're hiring for OR announce that you are looking for one. If none, that's cool. After the introduction circle, everything is self-organized! Feel free to work alone, pair up, attend one of our workshops/presentations, or mingle!

The Humanist Monthly Program is our longest running event and still a community favorite. In the old days it used to be called "Going to HCCO" and we still like to think of it as our flagship event. We will be hearing from Becca Powell, Director of Advocacy and Outreach at Unchained At Last, an organization whose mission is dedication to ending forced and child marriage in the United States through direct services and systems change. Unchained At Last's mission clearly meshes and addresses several of our Humanist Ten Commitments. Becca will educate us about an issue many of us may not be familiar with--but should be. Food and drinks will be provided at the event. Feel free to show up a little bit early to hang out and talk. Going forward our meetings will be hybrid. You can meet us in-person or attend online Join Zoom Meeting [https://us02web.zoom.us/j/87836564953?pwd=4Mi57ElZkDIFlb1fnlNwOJ0NiOK4tP.1](https://us02web.zoom.us/j/87836564953?pwd=4Mi57ElZkDIFlb1fnlNwOJ0NiOK4tP.1) Meeting ID: 878 3656 4953 Passcode: 760812 One tap mobile +19292056099,,87836564953#,,,,\*760812# US (New York) +13017158592,,87836564953#,,,,\*760812# US (Washington DC) The formal presentation will start at noon
