How to work productively with your Virtual Assistant
Before I started my business, I had all the questions, one of the main ones being ‘how would I work with my clients on a daily basis?’. Over time, I’ve realised this is the main question client side too. I’m here to get you clued up on all how you make your relationship with your VA as seamless and productive as possible.
Why I think Compatibility is just as Important as Skillset when choosing your VA
Every time I get on a discovery call with a potential new shiny client I bang on about this, but for me, I think it is more important than worrying if I have ever used a specific email marketing platform, or have experience sending contracts,invoicing, Canva etc. (I do have experience in all of these just for the record!). Here’s why…
So, you want to start working with me?
This is where it gets mega exciting! By this point you would have reached the place of overwhelm within your business. You would come across the idea of a ‘Virtual Assistant’, and just like that, your prayers have been answered! Now we are here, and might I add, you have made a very clever decision to enlist the help of a VA… if I do say so myself.
Why you need a VA now more than ever!
Ok, hear me out! Yes, we’re in a pretty weird time at the moment, there’s no denying it, and the thought of spending more money out on outsourcing seems crazy to you. Yep, I get it! You’re focusing on ways to earn your money and most probably pivoting your business to adjust to the oddness. Now here I am telling you to invest in a Virtual Assistant! What?! I’ll get to the point before you think I’m crazy.
Hey, it’s me!
Business aside for a moment, I wanted to take this time to introduce myself properly. I don’t know about you, but I always love to learn more about the person and their ‘why’ before I do with what they’re trying…
How a Virtual Assistant could Benefit you and your Business
I have heard it a million times before, and I am sure I will hear it a million times more, ‘what is a Virtual Assistant anyway?!’ I am here to enlighten you!
Think it. Write it. Speak it.
I remember a time when I thought some of my friends were slightly ‘woo woo’. Don’t get me wrong, I absolutely loved their positivity and was in complete awe just being around them, constantly wondering how I could be more positive in my outlook. Their glass always half full and never half empty. Their advice always spot on and in abundance. However the conversations of manifesting your own happiness, and if you believe it, it will happen just wasn’t on my wave length. Again, not to say the wisdom and belief wasn’t always an interesting listen. If anything it was calming to listen to and comforting knowing that others believe in such a positive ‘force’. I just wasn’t there yet!
What tasks can you give to your Virtual Assistant?
I am going to make this easy for you, you have enough on your plate right now. You’re busy, run down, tearing your hair out and sitting in the middle of your office amongst so much of your to do list, you don’t know where to even start. If all of that was true…. you need to be ready to delegate! I know, it’s scary to delegate some of your baby, but we can do this together.
