Small and Medium Business Owners Prefer VAs

Day to day business tasks need to be handled professionally and with responsibility. Without an assistant to do them in an orderly manner the business owners would have a ton of work to do all by themselves. The small and medium business owners find it much cheaper to hire a virtual administrative assistant than a full time assistant. He can do an equal job like a full time assistant without coming into the office. Since most of the work needs to be done online, it is better to reduce your costs and hire a cheap VA. 

VA’s can do tons of progressive work for your business like answering calls on Skype, answering emails and scheduling meetings. Without the help of these assistants the business owners wouldn’t be able to sign the big deals. After all, these deals mature with the efforts of your VA who has scheduled the meeting in the first place. After you have had a face to face meeting with your client, the support work is completed by the VA. He ensures that all your client’s emails are replied promptly and his inquiries are handled in the best way possible. 

When the business is in the growing stages it is necessary to keep the operational costs to as low as possible. A full time assistant can easily take a salary that would dent your bank statements. Then comes the taxation and the remuneration of his leaves and bonuses. As an employer of a full time assistant you are liable to pay him just like the laws have mentioned. When you are trying to keep your expenses down, the salary can put a setback to your plans because you would be running short of cash sooner or later. 

Your VA has no such demands. They charge you on two terms, if you feel that your work is not lengthy enough to consume an entire day on a daily basis, hire him by the hour. As you hand out work to him, he informs you of the hours that will be used to complete and you pay for only the hours you have hired him. But if you think you have enough work to keep him busy for a full time on a daily basis, set a monthly fee with him. That would be it, no bonuses to hand out, no taxes to pay against his fee and the best of all; it is just a fraction of the salary you would be paying a full time assistant. Because of the perks available to the employer, a lot of small and medium business owners prefer to hire a virtual administrative assistant.
