One of the questions I’ve been asked often is how to know if your ready for a virtual assistant. While the answer to this question will vary depending on your own circumstances, there are a few key points you should consider in making your decision. Things such as your time, workload flexibility and the fact that almost anything can and is done virtually these days. We’ve created a simple exercise which you can download at the end of this article that will help you determine whether or not you need a VA. (It’s a free download)
Your Time is Worth Money
You may be concerned about the cost, especially if you are just starting up, but consider the amount of time spent doing non-income generating tasks each day. Imagine if you could focus completely on building your business and increasing profits, how much faster your company would grow.
You would essentially be saving money. Spending valuable hours on your genius work would mean more productivity and more revenue.
Virtual Assistants Allow for Scalability
Starting out you may only need a few hours help to keep you focused and on track. Why go through the hassles, headaches and added cost of hiring an employee for a few hours here and there?
Virtual Assistants allow you to choose blocks of time granting you the flexibility that suits your business both now and in the future. You only pay for the actual work you need done. You can start out small, maybe 5 hours a month and increase if and when you’re ready.
Now A Days Almost Everything is Virtual
I don’t know about you, but I find most of my transactions are or can be done virtually via email, phone or even Skype. That means many of the day to day tasks you do now can be handled easily and virtually by your assistant. Location doesn’t matter anymore. (Though I do recommend hiring someone who can effectively communicate with both you and your clients, written and verbal).
These key points are only part of the decision process, now you need to take an in-depth look at your own tasks and schedule to see if hiring a VA is really important for you.
Behold the “Tasks Tracker”!
We’ve created a downloadable tracker that will help you determine not only how you are spending your precious hours, but also on which tasks. In just 5 days you will know:
- What exactly you do each day.
- How much time you’re spending on each task.
- Whether the tasks are generating income or not.
- Where you could improve productivity.
- How little time your spending with family and friends
- How much time is being wasted on non-income generating tasks (how much you could be saving/earning)
- And of course, the type of tasks you may be able to delegate to your virtual assistant.
The Tasks Tracker is free to download and super easy to use. Simply print it out and commit 5 days to journaling your tasks. Then on the 6th day over your favourite beverage, you can quickly assess your time, productivity and whether or not a VA is worth it for your business.

We’d love to get your feedback and results, so once you’ve completed the entire exercise, please leave a comment below sharing your thoughts, experience and results.
Hiring a virtual assistant should be a rewarding experience. While many look at it as a luxury expense, in reality, a virtual assistant could be one of your biggest and most worth while expenses.
The benefits are plenty. Besides the obvious benefits of helping take some of the work off your shoulders, there are financial and productivity benefits as well. Small to medium size business owners clearly understand the importance of both when it comes to their bottom line.
What can a virtual assistant do for your business
This list by no means covers every base. In fact, I bet together we could think up many more great ways that a virtual assistance could be of assistance to your business.
I think this is a good start though…wouldn’t you agree?
Looking for a Virtual Assistant? If you’ve landed here on this page, you are most likely wondering how you can ease up on some of your work load without spending the massive amounts of money (not to mention the headaches) it costs to hire a full time employee. The concept fueling this industry is not new at all , but I do think it’s a growing industry as more and more companies look for ways to save money, while more people are looking to work remotely.
