1. Scale down office space. Office space is very expensive. What if you could eliminate the costs by working from your home office? By hiring a VA, you can reduce or eliminate rent costs. A Virtual Assistant works from their own office, so there’s no need for additional space or trying to cram 2 people in a small home office.

2. No need to buy additional office equipment and software, and access to upgrades. Purchasing quality office equipment costs money, money that you may not want to purchase because it will drain your resources. Since a Virtual Assistant works for other clients, she has her own office equipment and supplies. If something breaks, she pays to have it fixed, not you. In order to run her business, a Virtual Assistant also needs to have current software. You can now have access to the latest software without incurring the cost yourself.

3. No employee related taxes, insurance, or benefits. Virtual Assistants are not employees, they are entrepreneurs themselves. They are responsible for paying their own taxes, and you no longer have to pay for health insurance. You also do not have to pay for employee sick days, vacations, and holidays.

4. No overtime and after-hours services. What if you need services provided after standard business hours? With an employee, you would have to do the job yourself. A Virtual Assistant offers the flexibility of having your work done even while you are asleep.

6. Pay only for the time you use. When you have an employee, you have to pay them for coffee breaks, chats in the hall, surfing the internet. You also have to pay that employee regardless of the amount of work that needs completed. You may only need assistance for 5 hours a month, or 40 hours a month. With a Virtual Assistant, you only pay for the time she works on your job.

7. Professional results and dedication to your business. Have you ever felt that your employee is phoning it in? They are only there to put in their 40 hours and could care less if the company succeeds? Virtual Assistants are business owner themselves and have a high interest in helping your business succeed. Because of their experience and desire for your success, you will receive professional and timely results.
