If you are a small business owner or solopreneur, the first hire you think about is usually a virtual assistant. There’s a good reason for that, a virtual assistant can help you grow your business, get your time back, and help you stay in your zone of genius.
1) Recurring Tasks and Processes
A virtual assistant can handle anything that you can do on a recurring basis and quickly take off your plate. Something as simple as updating your WordPress plugins, letting new members into your Facebook Groups, or updating your membership. Whatever you do in your business regularly, it’s super simple to create a process and hand it off to someone else.
Start making a list of those tasks, no matter how simple or small they seem. You’ll be surprised at how much time you are spending on those tedious, recurring tasks.
2) Customer Service Support
Customer service is another incredible thing that a virtual assistant can take off your plate. Answering emails, messages, and questions from your audience, clients, or students, can be taking you a lot of time depending on the volume of customer service inquiries you are answering each day or week. Customer service support can be more easily delegated to a virtual assistant if you have guidelines or a brand voice document created, too, to make sure your virtual assistant can capture your voice.
3) Social Media
Depending on the skills of your virtual assistant, most virtual assistants can help you with all kinds of social media tasks. Tasks like scheduling, hashtag research, competitor research, or even creating graphics for your posts from Canva templates can all help you make social media marketing and content creation a little easier.
