If paying a virtual assistant by the hour is making you hesitant, consider the bigger picture: How much is your time worth? We know that time is money but have you ever considered how much your own time is worth?
Business owners work in multiple roles within their company. Even if the business has enough employees, the owner will often wear many different hats. Have you ever stepped in to fill a gap, only to get to the point where you do too much on your own, working overtime and, eventually, suffering from burning out. Many are reluctant to hire an assistant – even one of our amazing EVAs – because they don’t want to pay an hourly rate. Although this is understandable, it fails to take the bigger picture into account: time is money. So, how much is your time worth?
There are many benefits to working with a virtual assistant, including their time-saving capabilities. For starters, our EVAs come fully trained and qualified in their fields. Having been recruited and tested by us, you can rest assured we have the best person for the job. What’s more, there is no need to use your precious time on orientation and training. You can choose your EVA based on their skills and experience, giving you confidence in their capabilities. The handover time is thus always shorter than you think it will be, because you’re working with an experienced professional.
As a further benefit; the booking process is extremely easy and quick. Simply navigate to our website and browse/search for the EVA you need. Make your choice and book a time slot that suits you. After completing your booking, your chosen EVA will give you a call to discuss your needs and then hit the ground running, focusing on your task.
Since this is an ad-hoc service, there’s no retrenchment or dismissal process to follow once your task is complete. When the job is finished, you simply don’t need to book again. Saving you more precious time!
With all of this free time you can focus on the more pressing tasks that need your attention, or finally have some time off to spend with friends and family.
So next time when you consider hiring a virtual assistant, rather than money spent, think about how much your time is worth – and an hourly rate for a virtual assistant seems suddenly reasonable in comparison to the time you’ll save.
If you’re ready to book your own EVA so that you can use your precious time better, don’t hesitate to get in touch.
