5 Reasons Why a Virtual Assistant is Your Ultimate Business Companion

It is 7pm on a Friday evening, and you’re still handling life and work admin, overwhelmed and thinking about how you’re going to spend the weekend catching up… sound familiar?

With an ibLE virtual assistant (VA), it doesn’t have to be that way. Here are 5 reasons why a VA could be exactly what you need to relieve stress and take back some of your precious time.

1. A Second Pair of Eyes

Your virtual PA can double check your calendar, ensure you haven’t double booked appointments and even anticipate needs, like allowing time for and booking travel transfers. This proactive approach helps you stay organised and avoids potential issues that could cost you time and money. Your VA can also save you tons of time by proofreading your drafted documents, from business proposals and important emails, to marketing materials and blog posts.

2. Keeping Track of Important Details

The human brain can only hold a limited amount of information at any given moment. For business owners and CEOs, this limit is often exceeded with an endless number of tasks on your to-do list. A virtual assistant acts as an external memory, keeping track of all your important tasks and reminders and ensuring nothing slips through the cracks.

3. Tailored Support

At ibLE, we understand that different tasks may require different skills. You can switch between VAs or work with multiple, to ensure you have the right support for each aspect of your business, e.g. admin, marketing and business development , without any emotional or logistical complications. Compare this to hiring traditional employees and you’ll soon see just how much money you can save by not having to hire multiple employees to complete your team’s skill set.

4. Remote Efficiency

Hence the name, ibLE Virtual Assistants work remotely, eliminating the need for additional office space or HR concerns. You simply assign tasks to your VA, and they get things done. You’ll have a dependable helper who requires no physical presence, making them perfect for modern, flexible working environments. In terms of communicating with your VA, you can decide what works best for you. Whether it’s regular communication via WhatsApp, a weekly Teams meeting or using a task tracking app like Asana, your VA will be happy to work in the most effective way for you.

5. Immediate Relief

Virtual assistants are experts in their field, ready to take on your most time-consuming and repetitive tasks from day one. At ibLE, our VAs have a minimum of 3-5 years experience working as Personal or Executive Assistants.This immediate support can be a breath of fresh air, especially compared to the lengthy onboarding process of new full-time employees.
