Hello, fellow small business owner! Are you looking for ways to cut down on your expenses and have more flexibility so you’re able to get your daily, weekly, or monthly administrative tasks done with less stress? I see you, and this blog post is just for you! Below are three big reasons why hiring a virtual office administrator is a smart business move!
Reason #1: It’s Cost-Effective!
Many virtual office admins (including me!) work as independent contractors, which means that you can hire someone to take care of the administrative tasks you need to get done without worrying about employment taxes or benefits. As a contractor, your virtual office admin will take care of all of that on their end!
Another cost-savings bonus is virtual office admins work, well, virtually. That means you don’t need to provide office space or equipment like a desk, chair or computer. Whether you work from home, a co-working space, or a brick and mortar store, you won’t have to disrupt your work space to find room for another person. Scheduling meetings is also easier since there’s no need to coordinate an in-person event. Taking a physical location out of the equation when trying to schedule a date and time makes it that much easier!
Reason #2: It’s Flexible!
Besides the flexibility that virtual work provides, there’s another kind of flexibility which is just as important! Many virtual office admins offer a range of services, so you can customize the combination that work best for you! For example: do you need help with data entry tasks, but you prefer to manage your own calendar? No problem! Do you love doing your own research into your competitors but the thought of designing your own website makes you want to hide under the covers? I got you! We can work together to tailor my services specifically to meet your needs, and make changes at any time if needed.
Another benefit of the flexibility of hiring a virtual office admin is that most can work on either a per-project basis or on a retainer so that you always have a place in their schedule. I offer both options so that my services can adapt exactly to your needs!
Reason #3: It’s a Mutually Beneficial Relationship!
This reason might seem small, but it’s powerful. We are both small business owners, and we can relate to each other on a personal level about what it takes to own and manage our respective ventures. As important as it is to relate to our similarities, it’s equally important to acknowledge our differences and take the opportunity to learn new things from each other. Like I mentioned in my post on why I don’t use AI in my workflow, the human element is important to me. I love connecting with people! Finding similarities and learning from our differences is such a fundamental part of the human experience, and I think that’s pretty cool.
Final Thoughts
Hiring a virtual office admin like myself will save you money, give you more opportunities to grow your business, and form new professional relationships. Win-win-win, right? When it comes to decisions about your business, that’s pretty much the best kind you could make!
