2. I come to the rescue when small business owners, non-profit organizations, entrepreneurs, etc. are spending more time on Administrative tasks than they are on the growing aspect of their business.Mission Statement: To provide professional administrative and personal support, reducing the daily stress of running a business by building a respectable, successful working relationship. A relationship that will not only enhance the business of my clients, but one that will enhance my business as well. Allowing my client to focus on their business while I focus on administrative tasks.

3. What is a Virtual Assistant?Virtual Assistants (VAs) are micro business owners who provide professional administrative and personal support while working in long-term collaborative relationships with only a handful of clients. VAs supports their clients without having to ever step foot inside the clients' offices.

4. Hiring a Virtual AssistantCollaborating with a VA reduces stress, it also helps you reclaim the time you lose each day on administrative tasks. Thus, allowing you more valuable time focusing on the more important things – like running your business, spending time with your family, or just relaxing. If you are an entrepreneur or work for an enterprise that requires the help of a virtual assistant, hiring one is usually quick and convenient. Since virtual assistants are private contractors, you do not have to go through an entire employment procedure; rather, you just pay for services rendered. In most cases, there may be a contract that both parties sign, as well as other procedures such as transferring of money, but beyond these formalities, hiring a virtual assistant is usually a much more streamlined process than hiring an employee.

5. Can I afford a Virtual Assistant? Time is valuable, and in short supply. When you hire a VA to handle time-consuming tasks, you are literally buying back your own time. Think of what you could accomplish if you had just a few more hours in your day. Since most VAs work at their own homes using their own equipment (e.g. computer, printer, copier, scanner, fax machine), you do not have to pay for supplies or even a desk. VAs cut down on overhead expenses. While you might have to pay for phone calls or special software, other expenses are non-existent.

6. Advantages of a Virtual AssistantAlthough the Virtual Assistant's hourly rate is more than the employee's hourly rates; you save the cost of benefits, overhead that would have applied to employee's wage.

7. Virtual Assistants are usually more experienced, more efficient, and better connected; you will need to devote far less time on projects while getting better results.

8. The primary benefit is that the client does not need to worry about paying taxes for the VA, or about employment laws and unemployment.
