What does a virtual PA do?
It’s hard to pin down what a virtual PA does as they are all different. If you were in a room with 10 virtual PAs, they would all do different things. Virtual PAs tend to specialise in particular areas. Some virtual assistants are general and do the traditional executive office role. Such as transcription, booking travel, booking meetings, taking meeting minutes. Then there are virtual PAs that specialize in different areas. For example social media. Or designers that design websites, brochures etc… Other specialities are copywriting or marketing. Call answering and appointment booking. Technical whizzes that will automate your processes. Paid ads specialists. The list is endless.
One size doesn’t fit all where virtual assistants are concerned. A virtual assistant could sit in the background. Or they could lead from the front as a virtual business manager.
Regardless of the tasks that you need doing, your virtual assistant will be the expert. They will do it faster and better than you can. They do it because they enjoy it and will do it well.
As well as the admin tasks, a good virtual assistant will be your right hand person. The go-to person when you need to run a new idea past someone. Someone that will give you an honest opinion.
