Your Secretary/Assistant is overloaded or taking leave and you need a solution to ensure administration doesn’t pile up.  There are a couple of options for you to consider – a Temp or a Virtual Assistant (VA), but what’s the difference?

  • Temporary (temp) employees are just that, temporary. You may get a different temp each time you require work done. Whereas, a VA on the other hand, is available on an on-going basis, and can be called upon at short notice.
  • VAs take a vested interest in the success of their clients and their businesses. VAs believe that the absolute best job will not only help their own reputation but will also help to build the client’s business, with the hope of generating themselves more work. A temp, however, may look at the assignment as just a means of padding their resume or getting paid.
  • VAs have many years of experience in the workforce, which allows them to provide a wide range of services. Temps may have little or no ‘on the job’ experience.
  • Although a VAs rate may seem higher, when you take in to consideration that you don’t have to provide office space or equipment, or pay the minimum 4 hours that a temp agency would usually charge, a VA is more cost effective.
  • VAs charge for actual time worked, whereas a temp is paid for the time worked, and any time they sit idle waiting for more work.
  • A temp has loyalty to the agency they are contracted through, a VA is usually and entrepreneur and works with and for the client.

 

Ask yourself  these questions:

  • Do you know if you have enough work to keep a temp busy for the required hours?
  • Do you have the workspace for a temp?
  • Do you want to have to train someone new each time you need extra help?

 

If you answered no to any or all of these questions, then a VA may be a great solution to  ensure your administration is kept under control.

It’s no secret, everyone is able to do admin, but is it the most effective use of your time?

Yes you may be able to create your own newsletter, type a letter, format a document, build a PowerPoint presentation and update your website, however a person who specialises in administration would probably take less time to do the job as they would be focusing on what they are good at.

Ask yourself a couple of questions:

  • do I enjoy administration
  • am I good at administration
  • is doing my own administration it the most effective way to use my time

If you answered no to any of these questions, then maybe it’s time to consider an alternative solution to get your admin done so you can focus on the tasks that allow you to better utilise your time and stop spending so much time in the office.

There are a number of options to consider a full-time assistant, a part-time assistant a temporary assistant or a Virtual Assistant.  While these are all great options a Virtual Assistant (VA) has some great benefits including support being provided on an as needed basis, a VA has extensive office experience so no training or recruiting costs, and you only pay for the time worked and not for unproductive time or coffee breaks and no need to pay sick or annual leave or superannuation.  Click here to read more of the benefits of partnering with a VA.

Now imagine how much more productive you would be if you were able to focus on your customers and doing what you do best, and with little time and effort from yourself, your emails are being screened, your website is staying up to date, your documents are looking professional, your social media accounts are active, and you are keeping your clients informed with a regular newsletter, you may even have more time to enjoy your weekend or to spend with family and friends.

If you would like to find out how a VA can create more time in your day, contact me for an obligation free assessment on paula@wynbs.com or 0411 047 545.

As a business owner networking is a big part of my business, to discover services out there that may be useful in the future, and to help educate others about the Virtual Assistant industry in Australia.  I’m not sure about you, but I would much prefer to use someone I know or who is recommended than someone I find by Google search.

Although it would be easier to just hand someone your business card and leave, hoping they will keep your card and eventually need your services, to make networking worthwhile you need to make an impression, so you generally introduce yourself and find out a little bit more about the person and then exchange business cards.
