Benefits of having a Virtual Admin Assistant help your small business...
Running a business is tough work. You're either thinking of key strategies to knock down your competitors or considering how your small business can move up the so called 'food chain'. There are overheads, taxes and bills to think of. While doing all of this you also need to ensure you are offering the best product/service to your valued customers.
Phew! Ticking time bomb!
Here are a few great reasons why small businesses have invested in the support of a virtual admin assistant:
NO OVERHEADS:
Employing a full-time personal assistant can be extremely costly, in fact, it is one of the highest expenses for many businesses, with salaries starting at around 16k a year! Then there are additional attributes to consider, such as holiday pay, sickness, maternity leave, paternity leave and don't forget the taxes. However, with the support of a virtual admin assistant, your expenses can be as flexible as you need them to be. These business to business support systems usually offer rates per hour or have fixed flagship packages to work around you and your small business. Either way, you can really set yourself a budget, all for less than half the cost and stress of a full-time employee!
NO OFFICE SPACE REQUIRED:
A virtual admin assistant will usually work from their very own home office and will therefore not be based in your office. A great way to save on office space and therefore not need any additional space. Virtual personal assistants are remote individuals which means you save money on rent and office space.
FLEXIBLE WORK SCHEDULE:
We all know that things don't always go to plan. Sometimes your office may have a paperwork emergency at 8 PM after you have closed up for the day and are catching up on your paperwork from the week before! Hence, the reason a virtual personal assistant is a fantastic addition to your team. A lot of these business support systems are there for you after hours.
With so many small businesses failing each year and taking on more work and more employees than they can sustain, it is no surprise that more and more small businesses are investing in the help of a virtual personal assistant. The reasons are piling up, invest in a value adding asset to help your small business succeed.
