Many small businesses and niche professionals such as real estate agents and investors, motivational speakers, authors, and consultants find that a virtual assistant is a cost-effective and timely way to take care of email correspondence, scheduling, digital document organization, bookkeeping and bill payment. Using us as your virtual assistants, you’ll save time, expense, and aggravation – we’re a part of your team, who just happen to work remotely.
How Virtual Assistance Works
As virtual assistants, we work via email, Skype, phone calls, and online workspaces and collaborative environments. When we are your virtual assistants, we handle all the jobs of an admin or executive assistant, but you do not have to provide office space, equipment, or supplies. We are also your single point of contact for specialized support – for example, graphic design, web design, data entry, paralegal work, and more.
- Step 1: Formalize an initial agreement; we provide a privacy and information protection statement
- Step 2: Provide login information for relevant accounts; we will provide a list based on the tasks you assign us
- Step 3: We will set up a “virtual desk” where you can leave work for us to do, pick up special projects, and communicate with us whenever you need us.
Virtually Anywhere, Anytime
The biggest advantage of using a virtual assistant is service! No matter where you live or work, an experienced virtual assistant can make your life easier. If you travel a lot, a virtual assistant is an indispensable resource who will manage your calls, mail, and other tasks. Further, because we work remotely, we can work with you whether you are in town or on the road. And you always have someone to call if you lose your passport, have your laptop stolen, or face any other emergency.
