 10 Tasks That a Virtual Assistant Can Help You With

 

You are super busy and wearing a dozen different hats in your business, so it might be time to hire a virtual assistant. But, what exactly can my team at Tandem help you with? The term virtual assistant covers a huge amount of tasks and work, and many virtual assistants have different specialisms and services that they offer. For the most part, these 10 tasks are things that many virtual assistants can help you with; you’ll just need to find the right virtual assistant who enjoys the type of tasks you want to outsource.

 

Are you ready for a virtual assistant? Check out Tandem VR's services page to see how we can work together and what I can take off your plate right now!

 How a Virtual Assistant Can Help You

1) Answering Emails

Tandem VR can take email management and customer service off your plate. If you have emails falling through the cracks or not answering as quickly as you would like, damaging your reputation. This is a perfect task to hand off to us. Your virtual assistant can even help you create canned email responses that fit your brand voice to make answering emails less time-consuming.

2) Market Research

Market research is a great way to brainstorm your offers, products, and audience, but it takes a lot of time. There’s no need for a CEO to spend all of the time doing the time-intensive research. Market research-type tasks can be handed off to your virtual assistant, who can put all of the research into a handy Excel Doc for your review.

3) Member and Student Support

If you have a lot of clients or students, your virtual assistant can easily help out with this. If you have a membership or a lot of courses, this can become a more significant part of your day. It’s also one of the most important tasks because we always want to ensure our clients, members, and students get the attention and support they need.

4) Social Media

Most virtual assistants can help with scheduling or creating social media content. This is great for someone who doesn’t want to hand their social media over entirely to a social media manager but still needs some help.

5) Website Updates

Updating plugins, changing links, adding countdown timers, etc. Minor website updates may not take a lot of time, but if you have a lot of them needing to be done throughout the month, it can add up.

6) Creating Graphics

A virtual assistant can help you create graphics for your business. While your virtual assistant might not be skilled in graphic design, you can still assign these tasks by providing easy-to-use Canva Templates.

7) Calendar Management

If you have a lot of meetings, calls, and speaking engagements, having someone else manage your calendar might be beneficial for you.

8) Event Support

Event support is a specialized service, but most virtual assistants can help you with a large chunk of the tasks involved in running an event, whether an in-person retreat or a virtual summit.

9) Data Entry

Your virtual assistant can handle data entry and almost all administrative tasks. From spreadsheets to organizing student feedback, anything that includes essential data needs to be set up and organized.

10) Marketing

If you aren’t ready to hire a marketing manager, a virtual assistant can usually help with some marketing-related tasks.

  SOCIAL MEDIA – HOW TO MAKE IT LESS PAINFUL! I am going to own up to the fact right here and now, that I absolutely hate doing my own social media! It has never (despite several people begging me to do it for them) been a service of mine.. Stop press.. a VA that doesn’t offer social media?!! Yup. Well, until I grew my team, to include someone that loves Social Media!! So now I do, haha, Only because it doesn't involve me doing it! When I come to doing my own, I try to reduce the pain as much as possible. That involves using all the tricks and software I can lay my hands on. In this blog I’ll share how I do it, to spread some joy amongst those who really can’t afford the time to do a good job.   There are lots of ways to schedule your posts using free and very clever numerous software schedulers that offer various levels. These include Buffer   Hootsuite , Later or Social Bee  which is a new one on me until recently, you can have 3 social accounts and 10 post...

Why am I a virtual assistant? And.. what is next for me?

  Why a Virtual Assistant, and what is next for me? I love to travel and during my 20’s, I was very lucky to have travelled around the world, being able to spend a few months or longer traveling overland in about 30 different countries with my partner in crime of over 25 years, Rowan. Here we are sitting on the pyramid in Egypt, shortly before Rowan got spat on by a camel.. Another story. For work in the UK at the time, I was working in my family’s oil distribution business, Fuel Oils, directly with my Dad and Uncle as the two directors. I worked my way through the various ‘Accounts clerk roles as they became available. I then went on to learn Bookkeeping gaining Certified Accounting Technician exams, before I moved more into management. I completed my diploma in Management and Leadership, before becoming General Manager of the business for 7 years, the business grew by very nearly 300% whilst I was GM, so I like to think I did a good job! Regardless though, I only really had exp...
