Virtual Assistants Pick Up the Slack
Friday, July 03, 2009 - Oakville Ontario News
Oakville, Ontario, Canada: During the past several months, recession-ravaged companies have been cutting back on staff in all areas, including administration. In some cases, higher paid managers and consultants are doing their own admin tasks in addition to their own jobs. In other cases, the “lucky” admin assistants who didn’t get laid off are working through lunches and after work to keep up with the volume. This can lead to burnout causing stress leaves and resignations.
It doesn’t have to be this way! Julia Wooster, of Prime Admin Solutions, a virtual assistance service has the solution. She says, “Companies can outsource their document formatting, etc. to a Virtual Assistant”. Julia continues, “It truly is the best solution for companies who are trying to minimize their salary and benefits budgets. Consultant costs come out of a different cost centre than salaries”.
Virtual Assistants are experienced, self-employed administrative professionals who provide their clients with a variety of admin services, often working with clients in an ongoing relationship. They work from their home office, eliminating the need for extra office space and equipment. Clients only pay for the time spent on their projects and they don’t pay for benefits, sick leave, vacation, downtime, etc. Julia continues, “Virtual Assistants can do everything from set up and confirm appointments, update contact management systems, perform mail merges and format proposals and reports”.
