One Size DOESN’T Fit AllRyan shares why you should manage your expectations when you hire a VA. He discourages trying to make your VA a jack of all trades. Doing so can lead to disappoint for both you and your virtual assistant.
“ The problem when you put too many items on one VA’s plate is something is bound to fall through the cracks. Also, the likelihood that your VA is proficient in all of those activities isn’t great.” - Ryan S. Johnson
Use SOPsIn order to train and maximize the results with your virtual assistant, Ryan recommends that you use SOPs (standard operating procedures). He also discussed this in a previous episode. Ryan shares more about the importance of having systems and processes in place.
“SOPs are the documented processes that a company has in place to ensure services and products are delivered consistently every time.” - Ryan S. Johnson
