While running a business comes with incredible perks, it can also come with its share of challenges. Deadlines, client relationships, marketing, and other day to day tasks can pull your focus away from what you love most about your business. A willingness to delegate and outsource tasks could free up hours each week.
If you find yourself bogged down with the day-to-day operational tasks, why not outsource them? Here are some of the items you can outsource to a VA (Virtual Assistant) today.
Administrative Support
Digital file and document management, calendar management, travel arrangements, inbox management. Essentially any task that keeps your office running smoothly can be handled successfully by a VA specializing in administrative support.
Bookkeeping
Hate crunching numbers? There are bookkeeping VAs that love all things financial: generating reports and invoices, and otherwise maintaining your business’s financial records. Through the use of cloud-based programs such as Freshbooks or Quickbooks, your bookkeeping VA can stay on top of your financial matters easily.
Customer Care
It’s no longer enough to have an excellent product or service. Outstanding customer care is what sets a business apart in today’s competitive digital world. They’ll partner with you in answering emails and chat messages, and resolving any issues that may arise with your product or service.
Event Planning
If you’re bogged down with planning and executing launches, webinars, courses, and workshops, an extra pair of hands will help with the details and the planning.
Outsourcing your event planning to a VA will free up valuable time to focus on the other aspects of your business that need your attention. Your VA can also assist on event day, making sure conferencing software and other technical aspects are running smoothly.

A project management VA can oversee all facets of key projects from start to finish. From assigning tasks to communicating with team members, a project management VA can oversee your project from inception to completion by utilizing the latest in project management and messaging software.
Social Media Management
A strong social media presence is a cornerstone to a well-known and successful business. Showing up online is key to attracting your ideal client.
A social media-savvy VA can create and execute your social media marketing plan: from planning, creating, scheduling content across all your social media pages.
