So, why should you hire a VA?
1. To save money
2. To fill a position or to help with a temporary project
You (i.e., business owner, entrepreneur, etc.) pay only for the VA services used--only when needed--no down time. One week you might have 20 hours of work for the VA, the next, only 5. Why would you pay a full-time, on-site employee (who probably can’t get done in a day, what a VA gets done in 2 hours!) benefits, vacation, taxes, lunch breaks, chatting at the copy machine, etc., . . . when you can partner with a VA to do it for you in half the time--for half the expense???!!!
Jennifer Cummings, Entrepreneur and Owner of Keytura, Inc., who has been using virtual assistants and virtual outsourcing for years says, "My virtual assistants and consultants have helped me execute so many of the ideas I just had sitting on my desk. Using their services, I take action . . . which means I make more money! They are invaluable to my business!"
At this point you might be asking, “Well, how do I know this VA is doing what I’m asking her to do? How can I trust her?”
Well, that’s not hard. #1 - If your VA is not doing what she says she’s doing, it’s eventually going to become VERY obvious. Things won’t be getting done and it will show. #2 – Your VA will keep track of – and provide you with a detailed record of – tasks completed & time they took. #3 – and this is HUGE…
Your VA is a business owner just like you!
Your business success is KEY to your VA’s business success!
If your VA screws up your business, she is, in essence, screwing up her own. What person in his or her right mind would do that???!!! You both (you and your VA) need to think of each other as business PARTNERS because that’s exactly what you are. You are partnering your businesses for success!
