As someone who works in public relations, remaining calm and strategic in the face of challenges is incredibly important. In this episode, we chat with Nick about the importance of administrative help, self-awareness, delegation, and collaboration in creating an efficient and scalable agency model while working with a virtual assistant.
Key Takeaways:
- One of the biggest benefits of working with a VA is that it frees up senior staff time, allowing them to focus on client work.
- We spend more time in our inboxes than we think we do. Utilizing a VA can help you find important emails proactively and point out urgent requests so that you can focus on your business goals.
- If you’re looking for a VA who can commit like an internal employee to your business, it’s important to lay out the expectations early on so that you can set them up for success.
- Despite the evolution of AI technology, it’s always going to require a human touch.
