Are you afraid that someone looking for an assistant must have clicked on one of the listings that had a business name instead of a person's name? If that's the case, there are NO OTHER listings in your area listed by business name. There must be another reason why no one has contacted you, so I'll leave you quoted here so they can see what a pro you are.
