Not sure where to start when hiring a VA?
It’s a BIG decision right?! This person will be a representative of your company. A brand ambassador.
A reflection to potential investors of the standards you set.
Here are our top 4 thought-provoking questions to ask yourself before you take the plunge.
1 - How much time do I have to train someone?
It sounds obvious, but you’re trying to save time by hiring a VA. What’s the cost to your business if you have to spend your time training someone with no property experience?
2 - What is an hour of my own time worth?
Putting a value on your own time is something that's difficult to figure out, but would your hourly rate be higher than that of a typical VA?
3 - How do I want my VA to support me?
Do you want someone to simply hand tasks to, or someone who will fully understand your business from the start and be a trusted right-hand person?
4 - How open to letting go of control am I?
Hiring a VA with a deep understanding of your industry helps to build confidence in delegating those more impactful tasks more quickly.
If you choose the right VA, and loosen your grip, they will be able to teach you new, more efficient ways of working.
