Virtual Assistants ‘VA’ are companies or individuals that supply their administration services to other companies or individuals.
Why use a VA?
If you are a small company (SME) or an individual, you may not have the time / resources to complete tasks that are essential to you or your business. A VA will complete these tasks allowing you to concentrate on things that are more important that you could be doing.
You may not have the money / space to hire more staff. With a VA you only pay for the hours that they work. For example if you hire a full-time member of staff that are contracted for 8 hours a day - you must pay them 8 hours per day! whereas if you hire a VA that only takes 5 hours to complete the task - you only pay for 5 hours!
VA’s work from their own premises - saving you space in your office.
