Time Is Money: Get More of Both with a Virtual Executive Assistant (VEA)
When you reclaim your time from repetitive tasks, you free yourself to pursue the big fish. Sounds too good to be true? Not with an experienced, efficient executive assistant on your side. Experienced Virtual Executive Assistants (VEAs) know how to get tasks done effectively and proactively – saving you time and money. Let’s examine why and how VEAs save you time and money.
Virtual Executive Assistants support the growth of the company
One of the main draws to having an VEA is that they increase productivity and provide problem-solving. Problems come up in business all the time, and a great Virtual Executive Assistant takes the initiative to listen to the issues, understand the context and collaborate with you to provide solutions. Those who are sole business owners or those with a small team will benefit from having an VEA. Executives, however, can benefit the most. This brings us to our next point.
A Virtual Executive Assistant frees you up to focus on the big stuff
Virtual Executive Assistants handle the little things, so the more significant tasks – like actually running a company – can remain your sole focus. Feel like you’re losing hours in the day to paperwork, busywork and frustrating asks? Reclaim your valuable time with an VEA at your side. Bottom line: your head may spin when considering all the administrative work that accompanies running a business. Virtual Executive Assistants can take care of these items for you. Here’s a short list of things VEAs can do:
Screening or making phone calls
Scheduling or moving meetings
Planning a business trip to meet with clients
Bookkeeping or budgeting
Completing paperwork
Initial brainstorming on new projects
Two heads are better than one
It’s easier to remember or collaborate when two heads are involved. A seasoned co-pilot can be the secret weapon that makes you look good – even great! – at what you do. Virtual Executive Assistants can take notes, file or organize, do proactive research, meet clients, and arrange meetings. These seemingly menial tasks can fall by the wayside as a business executive. Another mind and set of hands can help you stay on track.
Virtual Executive Assistants = increased productivity
Imagine this: You’re sitting in a meeting with three from your team. The conversation starts strong but wanders off topic after a few minutes. Fifteen minutes go by…20…30… Now it’s time for your next meeting. Did you accomplish the goals for the meeting?
Here’s another (and better) scenario: You meet for the same meeting, but your Virtual Executive Assistant meets with the team too. They drafted an agenda for discussion and sent it out earlier in the morning. The conversation meanders like in the first example. Your VEA pauses the conversation and reminds the group about the discussion topics. The meeting ends with everything being discussed. Your Virtual Executive Assistant sends out brief meeting notes from the meeting to review, next steps and even initial suggestions for meeting goals.
Which sounds better? Virtual Executive Assistants help meetings stay on track and increase productivity so you and your team yield results. Quick and to-the-point meetings allow for more productivity.
