Thinking of hiring a remote virtual assistant for your growing company?

Remote virtual assistant working from home

Even before the pandemic hit in the early 2020s, remote working or virtual assistant services began in the 1990s, providing tech support and secretarial services through phone calls. Indeed, the virtual assistant has opened up new doors for offering accessible needed services and manpower. However, with the pandemic not going away any time soon, a rising trend dubbed as "the Great Resignation" wherein a wave of resignations from workers even in global companies across the US and around the world are happening. How do we combat this surge of resignations?

Remote working or work from home setting has become the "new normal" for the workforce. As companies and even small businesses have adapted to this new working set-up, the workload is now even more overwhelming (regardless of time zone difference) with transactions and marketing promotions coming in are now brought in the digital platform and catching up to the latest trend increase consumer reach.

Why hire a virtual assistant?

Presently, there is now a growing demand for general virtual assistants and other types of virtual freelancers, especially ones specializing in a specific niche (i.e., customer support, social media marketing, data entry, transcription, etc.) to fill the needs of the company and offload some of the overwhelming work the business owners want to take off from their plate. For small business owners planning to take up their first virtual assistant (VA), I would recommend considering the pros and cons of hiring your own VA to optimize your brand's presence, consumer growth, and success. One of the benefits of hiring a VA is the goal of providing support in assisting your business by taking some of the manual and time-consuming tasks off your plate and letting you have more time to focus on your passion and other interests.
