1-800-507-1622Virtual assistance is a strange kind of service – you, as the client, are in complete control over the value and benefit you receive. The assignments you give are the leverage point that determines how much you get out of the service in terms of both money made and time saved. Here are a few assignments you can give to your virtual assistant that practically ensure you get a lot out of the service:
“Find solutions to this problem.”
One of the advantages to working with a virtual assistant is that you get access to their unique experiences, another point of view, and a different perspective. Use their brain to your advantage. If you or your business are struggling with a particular problem – for instance, a low conversion rate or getting a merchant account with bad credit – send the details over to them and let them take a crack at it. You may be surprised what they thought of that never would cross your mind.
“Create an affiliate program and contact potential affiliates.”
If your business does not have an affiliate program, you are leaving a lot of money on the table. Because you only pay when there is a sale, having other people do the work of promoting your company for a flat commission is a great way to never have to worry about losing money on advertising. Having your virtual assistant set this up for you and then go through the work of making initial contact with potential affiliate partners makes this a completely hands-free addition to your marketing arsenal. Your virtual assistant can even create promotional materials and other tools for your affiliates to use when promoting your products and be your affiliate manager.
