ANECDOTE

Pat's Life-Changing VA Experience

  • Pat hired his first full-time virtual assistant (VA) two and a half months ago, which has been life-changing for him.
  • His VA in the Philippines works while Pat sleeps, effectively letting him work 24 hours a day.
ADVICE

Define Tasks and Leverage Skills

  • Define what you want a virtual assistant to do since the VA role covers many tasks now beyond just admin work.
  • Use VAs for specific tasks like ebook design that you aren't skilled at to save significant time.
ADVICE

Leverage Your Time Effectively

  • Leverage your time by outsourcing tasks that aren't the best use of your own skills.
  • Focus on what you're good at and delegate everything else to save time and increase productivity.
