Have you ever used Virtual Assistants?

**atlguru** · 01-26-2009, 08:19 AM

I'd like to start using a Virtual Assistant and i came across a couple. Can anyone recommend? I used asksunday.com and they don't have any plans that suit my needs. I also tried Getfriday.com and they were horrible, I had to wait clost fo 3 weeks to get a VA. The ones that I have had a great experience with is 247virtualassistant.com and a TeamDoubleClick. Both of these guys gave me great service and 247virtualassistant.com was very economical. I want to hire a couple more companies to compare though, Any suggestions?

Hello -

I have used virtual assistants before and have great success!

The best part is you can outsource and be virtual yourself.

Is there anyone that you recommend?

Go check out elance.com. I think you may be able to find several with reviews off of that site. They also bid for your business, I believe. So you might get a good deal.

Virtual Assistant can prove to be a very handy too indeed as I had a great experience using it. Not only is VA economical, but also its advanced features make your work so very easy.

What exactly a Virtual Assistant is doing ?

Virtual assistant can be anybody working outside your office or home, mostly on a temporary basis. It will appear as if you have a full fledged setup working for you.
Virtual office, virtual assistant......

Hi There~ I am a virtual assistant that specializes in Real Estate and would be happy to answer any questions you may have.

Essentially, and virtual assistant is an independent contractor that works from their home office. They may specialize in small business services, web design, bookkeeping, you name it. For real estate, a virtual assistant can handle a myriad of tasks from Listing Coordination, Marketing, Transaction Coordination, Lead/database Management, blog platforms, website maintenance, drip email campaigns, and social media management.

One of the biggest benefits is that there are no employees hassles, no office space to maintain, and you only pay for your VA when you need it. They work only on the tasks required, so you are not paying for down-time, sick days or wasted time. You work together towards your weekly, monthly, and yearly business goals by staying in touch by email, phone or IM chat.

Payment plans are usually available hourly, per project, or per listing, as well as a monthly retainer, and go from $20-$50 an hour depending on the skills needed.

Feel free to visit my website where there is a ton more info.

Hope that helps! Take care,
