Are You Thinking Of Hiring For Your Team?
Here’s why you should hire a Virtual Assistant (VA) or Online Business Manager (OBM)
Hiring a new member of staff for your team can feel challenging and there is a lot to consider before you embark on the recruitment process.
We have managed large teams in the past and have on numerous occasions felt the pressures that occur when we’re short staffed or when someone has resigned and the position hasn’t been filled. It is unpleasant for team members, team leaders and managers when this happens. In fact, we launched CB Virtual Assistant because our departments at the time needed an extra pair of hands to get the job done.
Have you had a situation when you have needed an extra member of the team to come onboard? Maybe, you could have benefitted from having someone come on board for a specific project or someone who can work flexibly to your requirements? Whatever the case, we’re sure you can agree that having your human resources allocated correctly makes a big impact on your business and enjoyment of running your department or business.
Here is a list of benefits that come with hiring a Virtual Assistant (VA) or Online Business Manager (OBM). If you are in need of an extra pair of hands that you can trust, don’t hesitate to get in touch with us!
1) Regain time
A VA or OBM gives you back the time to focus on running your business by tackling your growing to-do list that needs attention!
We do this by working seamlessly with you. There are weekly planning meetings and frequent check-ins so we know exactly what the priorities are and you can be sure of project or task updates. We recently wrote a blog to highlight some of the applications we use to manage projects and communicate task updates, however we are flexible in adapting to your methods and your ways.
2) Save money and resources
We come with tools needed to work remotely i.e., laptops, phones, headphones, desk etc so you won’t need to worry about providing us with these to do the job. We have a team of highly skilled VAs or OBMs who have everything they need to accomplish the task. You also won’t need to worry about contractual liabilities such as annual leave, paid time off or sick leave because we are freelance contractors. We have written a bit more below regarding our flexible arrangements and service level of agreements.
3) VA and OBM are experts at productivity
Typically, VAs and OBMs work the hours you require and the tasks you need completed to a deadline. This means we will always use our time productively and work as efficiently as possible.
A VA at CB Virtual Assistant completes tasks ranging in complexity, from basic admin to more complex tasks and coordination. Our VAs are typically managed by a senior member of your team and will integrate into your team seamlessly.
An OBM at CB Virtual Assistant are managers with experience looking after complex tasks, situations and team members. We can be left to run your business whilst you go on holiday, for example! Our OBMs have specialism in project management, business oversight, liaison with staff and contractors to your business and can help you refine your processes, streamline your workflows, and consult with you on running your business.
Whatever your needs, we can decide if a VA or OBM would be a perfect fit for you in a discovery call.
4) Flexible arrangements
The service level agreement will always meet your business needs. You may wish to start off with a part time SLA that increases as your business grows, or firm in a long term arrangement from the start. The fees are agreed in partnership with you, no hidden costs whatsoever! For more information on our terms and conditions please click here.
5) Feel less stressed and feel more organised
We guarantee that hiring a VA or OBM will hugely reduce your workload and you will feel less stressed and more organised.
