DESCRIPTION

If you want to grow your business, hands-down, you need an assistant. And by “grow,” I really mean “make more money.” Oh, I know what you’re thinking! “I don’t make enough money to hire an assistant yet. That’s just not something that I can do right now.”

If you want to grow your business, bring on an assistant

If you want to grow your business, hands-down, you

need an assistant. And by “grow,” I really mean

“make more money.” Oh, I know what you’re thinking!

“I don’t make enough money to hire an assistant yet.

That’s just not something that I can do right now.”

I know you’re thinking this because I thought the

same thing too, at first. I resisted working with a

Virtual Assistant (VA) for over a year. Then I tried it

because I didn’t have any other choice. I was so busy working on client projects and actually

seeing clients that I didn’t have time to market my business.

But once I hired a VA, I nearly doubled my revenues. I finally had time to work on getting more

clients and taking care of the aspects of the business that actually MAKE me money.

Here’s the deal about Virtual Assistance. You can have someone work for YOU out of their

OWN office, on their OWN computer on YOUR stuff, at a drastic fraction of what it would cost

you to hire an assistant full time, or even a part-time college student. Here’s why: VA’s are

highly experienced professionals who have been executive assistants in corporations and have

chosen to go out on their own and work from home (can you blame them?)

They work with several clients at the same time and have an hourly rate. The best part is they

only charge you for the actual time worked, keeping track of the time they spend on your work.

Which means that, if they only spend 64 minutes working on a project for you, then they pro-

rate the hourly rate to just those 64 minutes and that’s all you pay.

Because they are highly experienced and own their own businesses, you can expect a much

higher level of quality than you would with a student who generally doesn’t have any

experience in the business world. Because of this, VA’s often become PARTNERS in the growth

of your business, rather than simply someone you delegate work to.

They care, and it’s in their best interest that you grow your business. The more successful YOU

are, the more work you’ll be giving THEM (win-win situation). So, it’s almost like they’re

INVESTED in your success…

Your Client Attraction Assignment:

Isn’t it time you thought about focusing on what matters most (the money-producing part of

your business) and start to delegate the other details to a real professional?

Start writing down the things you want to start delegating and what your business goals are.

You can also do a search on Google.com for “Virtual Assistant” and you will get leads for

different organizations. Once you start collaborating with an eager-to-take-stuff-off-your-desk

professional, you’ll start seeing results soon thereafter.
