Is Your Business Poised to Thrive in 2016?
The beginning of the new year is just days away.
You’ve set goals and expectations for your business for 2016 and maybe beyond.
You’ve created a budget, massaged the numbers and made sure it reflects your goals. (You do have a budget, or at least a plan, don’t you?)
Great!
BUT…
Are your goals realistic with your current staff or will they mean 60 or 70 hour weeks for you?
Have you left room for expansion when sales increase?
What about maintaining your website, blog and social media?
If not, you could:
Hire more staff and rent more office space, buy equipment, increase your payroll taxes and workers’ comp.
Work those 60 to 70 hour weeks.
OR…
You could hire a Virtual Assistant.
What is a Virtual Assistant?
- A Virtual Assistant is someone who works remotely.
- A Virtual Assistant is paid by invoice instead of payroll.
- With a Virtual Assistant, you pay for what you need; not for a body at a desk waiting for assignments.
- A Virtual Assistant is flexible, often performing a variety of tasks.
What kind of tasks, you ask?
Here are just a few of the things I offer:
- Accounting: from monthly record-keeping to payroll, billing, collections, budgeting and forecasting, bill paying and more.
- Social media management.
- Administrative tasks including data entry, email management, travel booking, correspondence, calendar management, drafting emails, and creating forms, reports and spreadsheets. This list is as wide and varied as your business.
- Blog and website management such as content generation, comment moderation, link maintenance and improving SEO.
- In short, all of the time-consuming but important tasks which keep you away from the reason you launched your business in the first place.
When should you hire a Virtual Assistant?
NOW!
Before the business of running the business starts to overwhelm you.
Start small with maybe 5 hours a week and see how much time is freed up to work on those goals I mentioned.
As the extra time starts increasing your revenue stream, you can add hours and tasks as needed.
A Virtual Assistant is Flexible.
