This is a great question and one asked pretty regularly. Firstly, you need to understand what a virtual assistant is before knowing if or why you need one.
A virtual assistant is an independent contractor who outsources their time and knowledge to help you with your daily tasks. They generally have a wide range of knowledge on all aspects of business and most often have more than 1 assistant, to get an even better array of knowledge. Some assistants are more qualified in accounting or bookkeeping whilst others are better qualified in content creation and website building.
Virtual assistants work remotely from all around the world and will help you via email, phone or video chat. Of course, having a VA in the same time zone as yourself is beneficial. They are designed to be that extra staff member to help you tick off your tasks each week to help you get all of your jobs done.
Now that we know what a virtual assistant is, lets talk about why you may need one...
> Are you a new business in the start up period where you are trying to grow yet just have too many tasks to get everything done and can not yet afford to hire a regular staff member?
> Perhaps your business has grown quicker than you expected and trying to balance your work and family life is just too much?
> Maybe, there are some tasks that you simply don't enjoy or are not confident in and just want someone else to do them for you?
Any of the above plus many more reasons could be the reason that you need a VA!!! We are the extra hands that you need, without having to commit to a regular staff member that must work a minimum of 3 hours a day. You can hire us for 1 hour a week if that is all you require just to help you get on top of any jobs that you need help with.
