What is a Virtual Assistant and what are some of the roles?
A Virtual Assistant is an Independent Contractor who works remotely ( mostly from home) in administrative, Secretarial and supervisory roles. The Administrative duties may include any or all of the following: Microsoft Office Suite, Google Suites, Project Management (Trello and Asana), Customer Relations Management, Email Support and Customer care. Please refer to the Virtual Administration page to for more information.
How does a Virtual Assistant compare to an employee?
There are several reasons to choose a virtual assistant instead of an employee. The most compelling reason includes the fact that it is cheaper to hire a virtual assistant. For those who do not have a physical office space, your best bet is to hire someone who already has the tools and equipment needed to run an office. Here’s why it’s more cost effective to hire a Virtual Assistant:
- A virtual Assistant comes equipped with a computer, furniture, headset, scanner, and printer.
- You won’t have to pay for health insurance, taxes, and bonuses.
- Hiring a contractor will allow you to have more control over the number of hours you can afford. An employee on the other hand typically requires a minimum of 20 hours per week.
Why should I hire Virtual Aid Pro instead of finding someone on Upwork?
Although outsourcing websites such as Upwork has its merit, it is in the best interest of your company to hire a Virtual Assistant with whom you can build a personal relationship. I have requested some feedback from other entrepreneurs regarding popular outsourcing sites and I was told that several of the freelancers on sites such as Upwork are only seeking temporary employment.
By contracting Virtual Aid Pro, you are assured that you are working with someone who is professional, trustworthy, has an excellent command of the English language and is in it for the long haul! Virtual Aid Pro is also suitable for entrepreneurs who are seeking flexibility.
What if I don’t want a full-time Assistant?
Virtual Aid Pro operates as an Independent Contractor, therefore, you are not required to contract any service on a full-time basis.
How is my Privacy Protected?
In an effort to remain secure and protected, all transactions are processed via Paypal which is a trusted global payment gateway. As it relates to confidentiality, I am happy to provide you with a full-background report as well as a signed Non-Disclosure Agreement between your organization and Virtual Aid Pro. Please refer to the Privacy Policy Page to learn more.W
