What is a Virtual Assistant (VA)?
A Virtual Assistant is an outsourcing administrative solution available to businesses and individuals who lack the time and resources to hire an employee or who just appreciate the many benefits and advantages of utilizing an off-site Virtual Assistant.
What are those benefits?
The main benefits of hiring a Virtual Assistant are that you are not obligated to a full-time employed member of staff and can hire a Virtual Assistant on a part-time, full-time or ad-hoc basis.
Some of the financial benefits are:
- No cost for equipment and office space
- No payroll or employer taxes
- No vacation, sickness, pension or training expenses
- Reducing your carbon footprint
Outsourcing to Virtual Assistance also has some less obvious environmental advantages:
Reduction in fuel consumption and traffic congestion — Virtual Assistants work from a home office.
Reduction in energy use — Not only do you not need to consume energy resources with office space; but as your Virtual Assistant works from a home office they are also not consuming energy in a conventional workplace.
Reduction in consumption and waste — Utilizing Virtual Assistants results in a decrease in use of paper and ink cartridges which is a burden on our forests and creates industrial chemical pollution. There is also the reduction of miscellaneous waste created in the conventional workplace such as food waste and cleaning products.
