Who can use a Virtual Assistant?
At some point, your business will get busier and you just can’t be everywhere at once or push all the buttons anymore.
While any business can improve their ROI by using Virtual Assistants, I wanted to share with you our personal top 5 Industries that benefit by using Virtual Assistants.
Hiring a Virtual Assistant, Online Business Manager, or Virtual Project Manager continues to be a growing trend, although the idea is still relatively new to some business owners and professionals. Technology has advanced in such a way that it has become easier and more efficient to use remote staff than have an office full of employees. And the cost savings speak for themselves. Check it out below.
Businesses are now using many cloud-based tools like Zoom, Skype, Microsoft 365, Docusign, iCloud, and Dropbox, to name a few. This means that there are a lot of tasks that can be done remotely and incorporating a global workforce is the smartest way to go. Companies leading the race in their respective industry have discovered the benefit of hiring a virtual staff.
Here are some types of companies that can use the help of a Virtual Assistant:
Coaches and Consultants
You literally started your business to help people. And whether you have a group program, one to one, or any combination of the two- as you grow, you’re going to want to only do three things: coach your clients, create content, and sales (for now). Most of our clients fall into this category and we LOVE supporting their programs and services. A VA can assist you with filtering leads, setting and managing appointments, posting ads, handling communication, setting up automations, and content management for marketing and serving clients.
Accounting and Financial firms
Organizing records, data entry, accounts payable and receivable, calendar management & bank reconciliation are some of the most daunting tasks for an accounting firm. The presence of a Virtual Assistant with the appropriate skills will definitely help lessen the stress.
IT Firm
This Information Technology industry was one of the earliest to discover the benefits of hiring VAs. From providing world-class quality website development to administrative support, technical and customer technical support and everything in between, technology companies have reaped the rewards of using Virtual Assistants.
Real Estate Brokers, Agents & Property Managers
As a real estate professional, you can’t continue to do everything and the sooner you realize that you are not able to keep juggling it all, the better. Considering the help of a Virtual Assistant would benefit you in so many ways. A VA can assist you with filtering leads, setting and managing appointments, posting ads, handling email correspondence, provide general administration & customer service as well as help with social media planning, writing, and scheduling.
Marketing Firms
In today’s digital age, companies that are looking to perform marketing services for clients can certainly use a Virtual Assistant. Social media campaigns, market research, blogging, finding images for quotes, article syndication, and design. All of these tasks are perfect for a VA.
Honestly, any company that provides a service – janitorial, general contractors, architects, and many more- can benefit from having virtual staff.
