I’m Lee Harvey, a Virtual Assistant in Northamptonshire and I want to explain why outsourcing a job to a Virtual Assistant can help you improve your life as an entrepreneurs or small business owner.
What is a Virtual Assistant
Do you often find yourself overwhelmed with tasks or that you’re spending too much on full-time employees. Hiring a Virtual Assistant will relieve you of these issues and let you focus on growing your business and allow you to enjoy your free time.
A Virtual Assistant will handle tasks for you while you’re in or out of the office. They work remotely and you pay them for the hours you need them. They’re flexible and will always be there when you require their services.
Why you need a Virtual Assistant
Virtual Assistants are becoming more common in the UK. That’s because businesses are relying on them and it seems like they’re here to stay and that’s great because they can make your life a lot easier. These are the main reasons you should hire a virtual assistant:
1. Virtual Assistants are cost-effective:
Hiring employees to work full-time can be very pricey not just for their salary but the desk space, holiday pay, sick pay and all other expenses but hiring a VA is very cost-effective.
You only pay for a Virtual Assistant for the hours you use them, as well as that they work remotely meaning you don’t have to pay for desk space. You can use those funds on growing your business. It’s especially important to save as much money as possible during Covid-19, so many businesses are currently losing money and being forced to let employees go.
2. Free up time with virtual assistant services such as Out of Office Support:
Balancing your home and work life as an entrepreneur or small business owner can be difficult. You don’t want to constantly have work on your mind and having a Virtual Assistant can help with this issue. They can continue to work while you’re out of the office enjoying your free time.
3. Professional personal assistant support:
Finding a Personal Assistant can often be tiresome, so why not pass the job onto a Virtual Assistant that is reliable and professional. They are there for you when you need remote business support. You can also trust a Virtual Assistant to keep all your data secure.
4. Handling a multitude of tasks for you:
A VA can and will handle many different tasks for you. They can manage emails, text and phone support, social media accounts and website support. A VA will gladly schedule meetings or even perform personal tasks like booking hotels and appointments. The amount they can help with you is virtually endless. These means there will be an increase in productivity and you can focus on growing the business.
Conclusion:
If you’re an entrepreneur or small business owner there isn’t a downside to hiring a Virtual Assistant. They’re professional and will always be there to help you with business matters and a few personal matters. They’re extremely cost-efficient and will allow you to focus on other matters related to your work or personal life instead of overwhelming yourself with tasks.
