Do what you do best, and outsource the rest.
-Peter Druker
If you’re a business owner, I am pretty sure that there is some task for your business that you don’t get the time to do it. A task that you don’t enjoy doing or a task that you don’t have the skills to do it. Am I right?
So if you’ve ever thought about hiring a Virtual Assistant but still need more reasons, we’ve gathered the ten biggest advantages of hiring a Virtual Assistant.
Top 10 Ways a Virtual Assistant Benefits YOU
Time. The most priceless asset anyone has is – no, not money – time because once it’s gone, it’s gone. That’s why it’s mission-critical to hire people to whom you can assign. Because fempreneurs that spend their days handling low-level administrative tasks are destined to delay. You should be spending your time doing what you love to do – not what you have to do to keep the paperwork and your business moving along.
Administrative Tasks. From calendar management to emails, and even managing social media accounts, a Virtual Assistant’s range of work varies as much as the industries that hire them, like marketing, web design, bookkeeping, and other services. A Virtual Assistant empowers you to entrust what you can’t keep managing yourself no matter what industry you’re in.
Scalability. Virtual Assistants will let you increase operations – and with less risk. Since growth demands capital – and Virtual Assistants are a comparatively cost-effective option than an on-site employee – you can substantially lower your costs and instead invest your money back into your business. What’s not to love about better ROI on your hiring decisions?
Online Presence. As a small business owner, there’s no escaping the fact that you should have an online presence by virtue of a website, Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, Instagram and more. But handling them is a time-suck most fempreneur can’t afford – but your Virtual Assistant can. A Virtual Assistant can schedule posts so you don’t have to.
Frees Up Time For Strategic Thinking. As virtual assistants can perform your non-core activities, you have more time to concentrate on growing your business. Rather than wasting time and resources in doing day-to-day operations, you can invest it to think strategically about the business from a long-term standpoint. This helps you to set goals that guide your company for better performance and long-term success.
Content Creation. You want to be seen as an authority in your industry and by researching and creating content around your product or service, you’re adding value to the customer experience. But content creation is time-consuming. Your Virtual Assistant can handle content creation – from market research to publishing – to drive more traffic to your site.
Accounting and Bookkeeping. Most fempreneurs spend way too much time working on their books. Or worse, ignore them altogether (don’t do that please). This one often comes as surprise to many small business owners but it’s true – yes, your Virtual Assistant can help with your bookkeeping and accounting. Your Virtual Assistant can handle your light bookkeeping needs, like expense reporting and invoice generation.
Improve Processes, Products & Services. A Virtual Assistant can shore up your methods and streamline your operations. Further, they can monitor your markets, listen for discussions on social media about your brand or industry, watch what competitors are doing and saying, and collate feedback from current clients. The longer a Virtual Assistant works with you the more ideas they will come up with to help streamline your job.
Peace of Mind. One word: PRICELESS. Having someone to whom you can faithfully entrust tasks is, ultimately, the cost of your sanity and peace of mind. Isn’t that worth it? As we’ve mentioned before, multitasking is often far less effective and efficient than monotasking, and a Virtual Assistant can help you focus on the important things.
