By hiring an Exclusive Virtual Assistant…
You SAVE over $60,000.00 per year!
Although the Exclusive Virtual Assistant’s hourly rate is more than the employee’s rate in the first place, you save the cost of benefits and overhead that would have to be applied to the new employee’s wage. And, because virtual assistant’s are usually more experienced, more efficient, and better connected than the employee, you’ll need to devote far less time to the project to get the same results, only 480 hours a year versus 2,080 for the new employee.
**Remember, with an Exclusive Virtual Assistant, you only pay for the time on task by the minute! No more paying for socializing, hour long lunches or frequent trips to the washroom.
Your employee’s 8 hour day can be crunched into 3-4 hours with an Exclusive Virtual Assistant.
Simply put, you should contract with a virtual assistant because it’s more cost-effective and virtual assistants go above and beyond the normal assistant’s duties to impact your own productivity. No task is too big or small for a virtual assistant to handle.
