Why do I need a Virtual Assistant? - OpenDesk Virtual Business - Support for Administration & Events

A Virtual Assistant is a person who provides various services to large or small businesses, entrepreneurs, or individuals from a remote location.

So, why do you need a Virtual Assistant in your business?

Virtual Assistants have many benefits.  They can offer flexibility to multi-task across many aspects of your business whilst being generally more cost effective than having an employee.

Here are 5 reasons why companies are hiring Virtual Assistants:

TIME IS YOUR GOLDMINE

The most valuable asset anyone has today is time.  Without time to think strategically, create new relationships or develop new ideas, all you have is a company that refuses to grow regardless of how much effort you put in.  Being locked in low-level administrative tasks leaves you little chance of growing a successful business.

BUSINESS SCALABILITY

By hiring a Virtual Assistant, you can substantially reduce your costs.

You can’t be everywhere. Focusing on your core strengths and outsourcing the rest of the tasks associated with running your business is essential to a scalable business. Concentrate on working ON your business instead of IN your business; scalable business owners are experts at leveraging outside resources. Let your Virtual Assistant do what they do best so you can concentrate on letting your own native genius work its magic.

ESCAPE THE ADMIN JUNGLE

If anything will drag you away from growing your business, it is the administration vortex.  Administrative tasks can easily be delegated to your Virtual Assistant because they are process driven and repetitive and can ensure these tasks are done on time.  This leaves you to focus on other higher-level initiatives.

STREAMLINE YOUR BUSINESS OPERATIONS

An experienced Virtual Assistant will be able to put well documented processes and systems in place.  Because they work remotely, it forces both sides to increase focus on effective communication and efficient procedures to allow ease of workflow and that is how a Virtual Assistant can help grow your business.

MAINTAIN YOUR SANITY

One of the key things for success is mindset; but we don’t all do mindset so well.  If you find your to-do lists piling up, paperwork is scattered around and you are getting overwhelmed – then you need to ask for help – which is the hardest bit.  Virtual Assistants are very organised and can help you prioritise tasks.  Delegating to someone reliable is one way to avoid becoming overwhelmed.

YOUR SANITY IS IMPORTANT TO YOUR SUCCESS!

Finally, trying to find a Virtual Assistant you can trust is no easy task.  Don’t be afraid to ask questions about their work ethic, how they track their time when they do your work and make sure they are insured and GDPR compliant.

Once you have found your perfect partner, giving them tasks helps ease your workload and the stress you face in the day to day operations of your business allowing you to add more productive hours to your day.

Getting more free time allows you to function better in your business and personal life which means more free time for the people who are important to you.

Isn’t that what really matters?
