5 Reasons Why Business Owners Hire Virtual Assistants featured

Virtual Assistants are like the unseen heroes of online businesses. These skill-packed, dedicated, professionals choose to work online for a multitude of reasons. The nitty-gritty of it though is that they want to provide a service that allows them to live the lifestyle they desire while also helping business owners live theirs. 

However, itโ€™s essential that the business owner is prepared to outsource and has a clear idea of the tasks they want to distribute to a Virtual Assistant before hiring one.

So if youโ€™re looking to grow your online business and brand without losing your ever-lovinโ€™ mind, here are 5 reasons why business owners hire Virtual Assistants.

1. They Help You Feel Less Overwhelmed

Often your success as a business owner, while exciting, can seem more overwhelming than enjoyable. Do you find yourself calling  โ€œMayday!โ€ because of all the responsibility crashing over you like a wave? If you grow quickly or to a point that you canโ€™t physically manage it all anymore, you can send out an S.O.S to the Virtual Assistants in the online world.

VAโ€™s donโ€™t work in brick and mortar offices. They may be at home, in a cafe, or even exploring another country, but they provide for their lives by helping you with yours. 

While they may not be in your physical presence, Virtual Assistants can rescue you from any disaster by taking over tasks that you don’t know how to do or take up too much time. Either way, unloading tasks to your Virtual Assistant can be a lifesaver when you have a lot on your plate.

2. Youโ€™ve Reached Your Brand Potential

Hiring a Virtual Assistant that knows social media management, project management, copywriting, and/or email maintenance (to name a few) can benefit your business in many ways. They can streamline your brand across all platforms and create consistency, more room for growth, and success.

When you become overwhelmed with the amount of work you have as a business owner, it can be easy to lose brand consistency within your company. Instead, your focus is on everything else but the smaller areas of your business that need attention. For example, utilizing your brand colors across your website and social media, keeping up with customer service, writing blogs in your tone of voice, etc.

Building a brand thatโ€™s recognizable by your audience is crucial as a business owner. When you feel like you’re falling behind, a Virtual Assistant can pick up the slack and keep your business moving forward, creating systems that work best for you.

3. They Keep You From Losing Your Marbles

Virtual Assistants help you focus on your passions. There is so much involved in owning your own business, especially online. Keep your attention on what matters most to you – your gifts, passions, friends, and family.  

Itโ€™s normal to feel the weight of trying to balance your business and personal life. Itโ€™s also perfectly acceptable to ask for help. Thatโ€™s why Virtual Assistants exist! They help you keep your sanity, stay organized, and be the true boss babe that you are.

What good is โ€œsuccessโ€ if you canโ€™t take a moment to enjoy it?

The sooner you can outsource your tasks, the easier your life will get, the more relief you will feel, and the lower your stress levels will be.

4. They Know What You Donโ€™t Knowย 

Itโ€™s understandable to be unsure about whether or not you should hand over parts of your business to a stranger. But before you even consider it, make sure that youโ€™re truly prepared to outsource.

Once you do – know that you are an expert in your area, just as Virtual Assistants are experts in theirs. Understand that your Virtual Assistant knows their stuff! Thatโ€™s why you hired them. 

Their skills can range from the ins and outs of engagement, ads, color branding, marketing strategies,ย  project management tools, and SO MUCH MORE!ย Whether youโ€™re looking for someone to engage on Instagram, design graphics for all platforms, or help manage your financials – a professional Virtual Assistant will know how to help you.ย 

If theyโ€™ve had great training, experience, and feedback on their work (like those that take my 90 Day VA), they will most likely know of the latest and greatest products, strategies, marketing rules, and tools to help you make your business even more successful.ย

5. Your Success is Their Success

Your Virtual Assistant cares about your success, is happy about your wins, and sad about your losses. They genuinely want to see you succeed just as much as you do. A VA takes pride in growing your followers, creating great content, and managing your task list like a rockstar. 

Working with them is not only an investment but a collaboration. When you hire a Virtual Assistant, youโ€™re adding a new team member that you can bounce ideas off of and help you complete tasks that move your business forward.ย 

You have less room for error with a second set of eyes to look things over and ensure everything is where it needs to be. Your communication with your clients and customers also becomes clear when youโ€™re not focusing on everything all at once.ย 

Consider your VA like your personal cheerleader, cheering you on as you scale your business!

Hiring a VA will be nothing but beneficial for you personally and professionally. There’s no need to worry about any overhead, like office space or equipment, and no taxes or benefits to pay.

Just remember, if youโ€™re new to the VA game, do your research. Hire someone with a great online resume and portfolio. But know that they are human too, trying to support their families and passions just like you.ย 

Hundreds of women each year learn everything they need to know about becoming a Virtual Assistant in the 90 Day VA course. All the coursework covers multiple online skill sets, is consistently updated to meet all the current online requirements, and all work submission is met with honest feedback. That means that these hard-working Virtual Assistants are ready and equipped to handle all that you have going on.ย
