15 years ago, when I started in the outsourcing industry, the concept of using Virtual Assistants was new, unproven, and raised more questions than it answered. These days, we hear more about the risk of not outsourcing by delegating tasks to a Virtual Assistant team. Businesses of all shapes and sizes from the 1-person show to large corporations, want to be nimble, flexible and use the most relevant technology to be productive. In my podcast interviews, I add value by showing business owners how to stop working in their business and start working on it. I can discuss tips on outsourcing, hiring Virtual Assistants, learning how to delegate, and receiving the most return on their investment. As the owner of the largest and longest-standing Virtual Assistant company, I show business owners how to growth hack their way to success-- by utilizing the right tools, such as a Virtual Assistant.
My area of expertise which is remote work and hiring Virtual Assistant teams in lieu of traditional employees, whether long-term or for short-term gap assistance. For 15 years, I have run Virtual Assist USA, a 100% remote company. These services are particularly useful to companies that need a flexible, nimble, and on-demand option. There are additional benefits as well-- as they relate to turnover and compliance.
