Why Hire a Virtual Assistant?
A Virtual Assistant is such an asset to any small business,
and here is why:
* No tax or national insurance to pay - I pay my own
* No holiday pay, sick pay, pension contributions - I pay my own
* No lunch or tea/coffee breaks - you only pay me for when I am working on your business
* No equipment or office space or energy costs - I have my own
* No salary - just pay me for the hours you need and cancel when you do not need me or when business is slow
This is why hiring a Virtual Assistant instead of an employee is becoming so popular because it works out cheaper. You may think my hourly rate of £26 per hour is high but in fact it works out much cheaper in the long run because I come with no overheads, I just come with skills and knowledge to help build your empire
