Do You Need a Part Time Administrative Assistant?

virtual assistantAre you a successful administrative assistant, happy with your job but…feeling like there has to be a better way for you to work? You’re successful at your job because you complete tasks in a way that makes your boss look good and feel better. But you’d rather work for yourself and be in charge of your own time. Maybe you want to be at home when your kids arrive from school, or maybe you’re just tired of commuting. Maybe you dream of living in the mountains or your rural hometown, but you still want to produce an income. The good news is that the explosion of the Internet has produced not only the virtual organization, but also a new business opportunity: virtual assistants.
The typical day for virtual assistants may be taking on the nitty-gritty work for independent professionals and small businesses that don’t need a full-time secretary or office manager. Their tasks may include secretarial work, meeting and travel planning, project managing, and logistics coordinating.
Virtual Assistants Tip: Many small businesses with no or few employees find that having a virtual assistant take over administrative tasks allows the business owner to concentrate on more important business while comfortable in the knowledge that the other tasks are being done competently and reliably.

Give Every Employee a Corner Office

virtual office spaceAnyone who has been in the business world for longer than a minute and a half has heard about the heavy competition for a corner office, or even an office with a window. For companies that use a virtual office space, however, every single employee can have a prestigious corner office – in their own home.
Through virtual office space, companies can conduct business from practically anywhere: an employee’s home office, the corner coffee shop, an airport VIP lounge. With a laptop, a WiFi connection, and a cell phone, many small businesses have opened. With the added benefits of a virtual office space, those same small businesses are able to expand both clientele and employees, while keeping operating expenses reasonable and maintaining organizational flexibility. Companies can even take advantage of reception and human resources services through a virtual office, which is also a major potential cost-effective benefit.
Employees working in a virtual office space enjoy reduced or no commutes, while still having access to business services such as a mailing center or conference rooms for meetings with clients.
Virtual Office Space Tip: As many as 50 percent to 75 percent of the seats in today’s traditional offices are empty at any given time. Only 30 percent of planned meetings take place.

What Can a Virtual Office Offer Your Business?

What do you call a workplace without cubicles or walls, that offers an easy (often non-existent) commute, and no watercooler? Those are just a few of the things that a virtual office does not have; let’s talk about some of the things it does offer.
virtual officeA virtual office is a service proving virtual assistance that is offered through serviced offices which allows clients to use a prestigious office address and professional reception service, without renting a physical office. This provides a cost-effective alternative for small business owners who work from home or for traveling business people. Virtual offices provide professional and reliable handling and routing of customers, phone calls, and mail for the client - in essence, ensuring the client’s virtual presence.
A virtual office may also involve a computer network system that allows users to login in from any location and access their e-mail, documents, and other stored files. Several employees may even be able to work on the same project at the same time. In this sense, the ‘office’ is the place where the person logs into the computer network.
A virtual office may also refer to a system which integrates and facilitates daily office activities like document management, accounts management, daily diary, telephone books, database management, client management, and website management, among other things.
Virtual Office Tip: Generally, virtual office clients have preferred access to the amenities of the serviced offices, such as fax machines, photocopiers, and meeting rooms.

Did you know that approximately 70% of people who call to enquire about a business service will not leave a message if they encounter voicemail? If you’re a small business chances are your time is spent running the business. But if you can’t be there to take the call who will? – Your competition will. Wouldn’t it be nice if you had a receptionist who was there when you needed him/her? Well, stop dreaming and get your own virtual receptionist.
With your own virtual receptionist you can have all your calls professionally answered and the messages sent to you as a text and email. You can choose to send calls to your virtual receptionist as often or as seldom as needed. Your virtual receptionist will take a message for you, and then forward the message to you by either email, or text message right to your phone. Virtual receptionists are a great way to capture that business that you might otherwise lose while you’re away from the phone.
Virtual Receptionist Tip:  Avoid missing calls or getting voicemail; your virtual receptionist only answers the phone for you and up to four other businesses.
