They can help you delegate the tasks you don’t like

Running a business as a solopreneur isn’t easy. You have to play the role of the salesperson, manage the marketing, supervise the admin work, oversee finances, and do a lot more work. Well, the coaching business is no exception. 

The business runs pretty smoothly in the beginning. But when you climb the next step, the days seem shorter and tasks on the to-do list become unending. 

Finding a solution to handle such days?

If you want to expand. While building your initial team, you should delegate the tasks that you dislike or are your least favorite. It could be anything from admin work to sales work. Your weakest point can be handled by an expert and you will start analyzing better results.

Therefore, a virtual assistant can save you from the role you hate to play!

They are cost-effective as compared to a full-time employee

A very common question asked by coaches around the world is, will hiring a virtual assistant burn my pockets? 

People aren’t aware of virtual assistants in general. I don’t blame them because this wasn’t a career a few years back. But with the increase of digital businesses, virtual assistants have come into the limelight.

The cost of hiring a virtual assistant is way less than onboarding a full-time employee. It is because they work with you on an hourly basis. You can choose the number of hours you want their assistance and pay accordingly. The plus point is you don’t have to pay any allowance or paid leave. 

When the work is virtual, you can work with talents from around the globe. This gives you access to the best of the best talents to work with.

They can handle the business aspects and allow you to focus on clients

Being a coach makes it difficult to run a business and focus on the growth of their students at the same time.

But it does not mean a coach should compromise in its quality.

Both parts are very crucial for a sustainable coaching business. 

You can hire a business growth virtual assistant who will take care of marketing and sales. So, that you can have ample amount of time to give your 100% focus on coaching.

Isn’t it the best option?

They can help you with marketing, bookkeeping, and other admin work

Once your business has stepped on the second level, you will have a lot of admin work. Scheduling meetings and calls, booking tickets for business travels, bookkeeping, replying to emails, sending invoices and receiving timely payments, follow-up with hot leads, and whatnot.

Trust me, these tasks are very time-consuming and can’t be handled single-handedly. This is where a virtual assistant comes into play. They’ll make your business backend so smooth that you’ll never have to worry about it. 

They can help you meet deadlines

Do you have a 2-page long to-do list that never comes to an end?

Or, do you face the problem of missing deadlines?

Such behavior gives the impression of an irresponsible person. I am sure you don’t want to brand yourself that way. 

The best option available for you is to delegate the most time-consuming tasks. We always advise coaches to keep the most important task on your to-do list that can’t be performed by anyone else. 

This way you can be 100% focused on your clients and your business won’t take the back seat.

They have flexible working hours

Another awesome advantage of virtual assistants is flexible working hours. 

They work at their convenience to submit your work before the deadline. 

Working at their timing allows them to be more productive and enhance their quality of work. 

Along with this, you don’t have to worry about holidays. You can pay them an hourly basis for say, 10 hours.

This makes it easy for them to complete everything on time. For you, it’s like a magic wand, you swirl it and your work is done.
