Benefits of using a Virtual Assistant in these current times:

Flexibility, work can be done outside of normal business hours;

No need to provide office space, hardware and supplies as a virtual assistant uses her own resources and stationery;

A virtual assistant cares about her business and offers superior service;

Temp agencies don’t always send the right person for the job and can be guilty of sending unskilled candidates;

Temp agencies usually need to be paid for a minimum amount of hours;

A virtual assistant is only paid for the time she spends working;

A business is able to use the services of the same person over again,whereas this is near impossible with temps;

Virtual assistants are independent contractors thereby eliminating administration on client’s behalf with payroll, superannuation, leave payments, sick leave, etc;

A virtual assistant is not paid for spending time on personal phone calls, coffee breaks, surfing the net, texting at her desk, etc;

A virtual assistant performs the tasks that you previously may have been wasting your time doing instead of focusing on growing your business. As a business owner you should be outsourcing and delegating the myriad of  administrative tasks to an appropriate virtual assistant.
