How Virtual Assistants Are THE Small Business Support Solution

If you are running a small business, sometimes you need an extra pair of hands. If you don’t have enough work to employ a new team member full or even part-time, why not think about hiring a Virtual Assistant. We are THE Small Business Support Solution. Read on to find out why.

 

Project Work

If you are about to embark on a project then you have probably thought about how you will plan and organise your resources and people. However, things don’t always go to plan and you might be required to step in to oversee elements that may take your time away from managing the project as a whole. Red Desk can be brought in to ensure your project is finished on time, stays within budget and meets the requirements of the business. Our past project management experience includes design projects, large world-wide social media and marketing projects, international conferences, house renovations and project managing relocations.

 

Holiday Cover

Working for yourself is so rewarding but at times you need a break. How do you ensure your business runs smoothly when you are away? A Virtual Assistant can be brought in to respond to emails, send out marketing packs and invoices whilst you are recharging your batteries.

 

Recurring Tasks

As your business evolves, you will find yourself caught up in tasks which could be outsourced and therefore freeing up your time to concentrate on the bigger picture. Here are some examples of recurring tasks that you could handover to a Virtual Assistant:

  • Website work – updating plugins, adding blogs or reviews
  • Financials – credit control, updating price lists
  • Social Media – adding videos to YouTube, creating and adding social media posts to Facebook / Instagram / X
  • Reviews – following up with customers who have bought your products but have yet to leave a review
  • Appointment booking – contacting previous customers to see if they are interested in your latest deal

 

Start Up Help

If you are starting up your business then you may need business support for the following:

  • Research – a Virtual Assistant can help you carry out market research to help you collect valuable data
  • Connections – If you are looking to work with or hire a certain person then we can help you find the right connection
  • Company Set Up – we know what steps you need to go through in order to start trading. From registering at Companies House to finding the right business name, we can help you get on your feet
  • Websites – We work closely with website designers to ensure your website is up and running in a timely fashion
  • Admin – A VA can be in the background supporting you by ordering your business cards, inputting sales leads into a CRM or designing your invoice template
