What is a Virtual Assistant, and what can they do?
In this week's episode, Latoya McDonald discusses Virtual Assistants and how they can benefit your business and your social life.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
- Instead of hiring a full-time employee, a Virtual Assistant (VA) is a contractor who can complete set tasks for you within an allotted number of hours a month.
- Virtual Assistants are located around the world, though Latoya chooses to hire one based in the UK.
- Virtual Assistants often work out cheaper, as you don’t need to pay employment tax and holiday pay.
- Ensure your Virtual Assistant is working for more than one business; otherwise, they may be considered your employee, and you’ll be liable to pay employment tax.
- Latoya found her first UK-based virtual assistant on Fiverr.
- You’ll still need to train your Virtual Assistant in the systems and processes of your business, so be prepared to dedicate time to do so.
- Virtual Assistants are available for most of your work and personal life tasks, including managing your calendar and organising your weekly food shop.
BEST MOMENTS
“Each VA is different in what they’ll do for you.”
“I have a VA for the day-to-day tasks in my business, and shortly I will also have VA for my social media and marketing only. I don’t want one VA doing it all in case they leave. I want to spread my risk.”
