For those of you considering hiring a virtual assistant in 2014, I cannot
recommend it highly enough — this is easily one of the best things I did
for my life and business last year. And yet, control freak that I am, I did
not go down without a fight!
For YEARS I had read all the books (4-hour Work Week chief among them), and
knew the importance of delegating and not being a bottleneck. But each time
I tried to move forward with hiring someone, I got overwhelmed, discouraged
and gave up. Who to hire? US or overseas? What should I delegate? How do I
do it efficiently? Can I trust them?
Thankfully I gave it another go by hiring someone in October, and I’ve been
hooked ever since. After just four days of working together, she became
indispensable to my daily workflow.
