One of the questions that might come to mind is how to let your VA do the work. Hiring a virtual assistant comes with hesitation, whether it is the right option for your business or if they are ‘smart’ enough to do what you are asking. A lot of these hesitations can be because the owner or manager isn’t ready to let go. Let me solve this for you with a few easy tips.
Communication Platforms: Having constant communication is key to success in a business. With the advancement of technology we have been given the plethora of apps that allow us to communicate and manage with ease. Through communication and tracking tasks allows for transparency between all parties involved.
Time and Activity Tracking: Time tracking tools are beneficial for business owners who love keeping track of their own and employees’ work. These tools can be helpful for virtual staff members to ensure that work is being completed in the right time frame.
Document Sharing and File Management: Google Drive and DropBox have become commonplace in many businesses, however their services can be beneficial beyond the walls of your office. With file sharing technology will allow for your VA to work collaboratively with you and the rest of your team.
Sleep Apps: Anxiety and unwanted stress can play a massive role in a manager’s ability to let go of their work, and delegate to a staff member or virtual assistant. Through the use of sleeping apps will allow you to fall asleep with a calmer mind, and wake up ready to conquer your next day.
It is okay if you want to be in control when it comes to your business, however the benefits of letting go will allow you to grow your business and for you to find what truly is important to you.
