Episode description

When working with virtual assistants, you have to set them up for success. It’s up to you to teach them the best practices within your business so they can do the best job possible. People can be quick to say that things with their VA aren’t working out, when the reality is they haven’t prepared them well enough to perform.

Knowing how to choose VAs based on the tasks you want them to do is important. For example, cold calling will require different personality traits than research. Providing them with a simple test or sample call to record can give you an idea of what they’re like. Keeping VAs accountable with a scorecard system and providing feedback without micromanaging helps things run more smoothly. Hiring the right VAs will make you busier because they’ll be generating more leads which translate into more work. Your first hire should be a VA that you can trust and work well with.

What’s Inside:

  • How to hire VAs for specific tasks within your business.
  • Common issues when working with VAs.
  • How to structure a team with multiple VAs.
