Virtual Assistance For Virtually Anything
Assigning essential support and assistance functions can free their time to focus on executive and management functions and business opportunities.
"With the expansion and acceptance of technology in our day-to-day lives, coupled with proper customer service, nearly anything can be done reliably and affordably using virtual professional services.
" says Sean Thompson of Four Star Service Deciding factors for considering professional Virtual Assistance services: * Do you need help? Are you in over your head or behind on tasks that are essentially not getting done? * Can you do more with your time? Does losing the opportunity to do what you do best cost your business? Would delegating support to a trusted person or team give you a better return on your professional (or personal) time? * Can someone else do it better, or find a way to do it better? Hiring a support team or ordering professional support a la carte can bring improvement to your overall business image and help you get farther, faster, and usually for less cost than traditional staffing resources.
* Quality Customer Service: Do you demand quality and exceptional customer service, but don't have the time to hire, train and manage the people that can deliver it.
Are you held back in providing the right level of service or quality to your own customers because you can't grow? Virtual offerings range from things as simple as letter writing and envelope stuffing, to answering technical sales and service calls for business partners.
A VA's services scale to the need of the customer and given their [usually] large team of assistants with various education and backgrounds can offer nearly unlimited support.
VA's can fix spreadsheets, design Power Point presentations, conduct research, take calls for conference registrations, send out sales letters, coordinate travel, set up meetings and events, call in dinner reservations (or even to go orders), coordinate with hotel event staff, book car services, and even setup home service appointments for people they've never met face-to-face.
They're a secretary, a travel coordinator, the marketing intern, an event planner, the point of contact for landlord and maintenance services, and the person to call anytime you need anything because of their extensive contacts.
There are exceptional assistants of all kinds, but each person has their limitations.
Working with a team of qualified VA professionals can bring you peace of mind and better overall assistance - with depth and experience that surpasses all limitations.
They also work regularly with other professional services such as bookkeepers, IT professionals, graphic design and website development services, marketing and SEO consultant service and more.
Best of all there's also no vacation time or sick days to cover, no employee benefits or taxes to worry about, and if you need to scale support up or down you can do it without worrying if your assistant will be looking for another job!
