Why should you hire a Virtual Assistant?
If you’re at the point in your business where things feel out of control, it can be hard to imagine spending another dime, even if it IS on hired help. Though adding another expense to the balance sheet may seem inconceivable, sometimes the addition of a team member can actually free you up to focus on tasks that actually move the needle in your business, rather than maintaining the status quo…aka staying afloat. If this is you, it might be time to consider hiring a Virtual Assistant!
What is a Virtual Assistant?
Even if you desperately need support in your business, hiring a new employee becomes yet another task to add to the to-do list (a time consuming task at that!). A Virtual Assistant can actually step into your business and provide the specific and specialized support you need to move the needle, without the time and money constraints of hiring a W2 employee. Virtual Assistants specialize in all sorts of tasks – ranging from digital marketing to customer service and communication support, and beyond. When hiring a new employee (at 20+ hours per week) is out of the question, consider working with a Virtual Assistant who could offer their services at a per month basis so that you may stick within your budget while still getting the support you need.
Not convinced yet? Here are 3 reasons why hiring a VA will change your life!
1. Gain back more time in your day
If you’re currently spending hours per week on things such as answering emails and maintaining your inbox, scheduling appointments, posting on social media and/or running your digital marketing campaign, think of all the other things you could be doing with your day if someone ELSE took care of those tasks for you. At a reasonable monthly rate, at that.
I have a list of the different packages that I offer here.
2. More time = More business
With more time in your day, think of how much more business you could drive! You are what makes your business unique. Imagine if you had more time to spend closing sales — on the leads that someone else put in the nitty gritty efforts to get for you. Or maybe you are a creator – spending more time creating the products that ARE your business means you have more to sell.
3. More work life balance
The infamous work-life balance doesn’t have to be a great myth. By hiring a VA, you may have more time to focus on other (more important) areas of your business… and you might just also have more time for your family. Or to read that novel that’s been sitting on your nightstand forever.
