Anyone!It doesn’t matter where you are based as we
speak to and contact each other over the phone, internet or social media;
I work with clients who live in the same city as me, same county or another country – it really doesn’t matter where you are!
I know I need help but don’t know where to start

Lists are always a good starting point;Write down your to-do list and get it out of your
head!Split the list into three areas, what you enjoy
doing, what you don’t have the skills to do and what you simply hate doing!
Delegate away!
Tasks

“I had my VA set up an auto-reply on my email. I could do it myself - I'd just
rather not, as have other stuff to get on with”

Don’t think you could work with someone virtually?
Copyright 2016 (c) Joanne Manville Virtual Assistance
You already are!
If you phone, email or contact people by social media or Skype etc, you are
already communicating virtually, this is no different!

SCARED TO LET GO OF
THE REINS?
Copyright 2015 (c) Joanne Manville Virtual Assistance
A lot of my clients have grown their businesses from scratch and find it hard to hand over the work to someone else;
You don’t have to go all-in, just start with small tasks and build up, I’m confident you will be pleasantly surprised how quickly you learn to enjoy delegating!
If you want to grow your business, start working more sensible hours or get back your work/life balance, then a Virtual Assistant could be the answer;
If you don’t get help, then nothing is going to change!
