Should You Hire a Virtual Assistant? 3 Key Questions to Ask First
Manage episode 499719898 series 3505318
In this episode of the J29.11 Podcast, I’m diving into the world of virtual assistants — and helping you figure out if hiring one is the right move for your business.
Over the years, I’ve worked with assistants in all kinds of setups: side-by-side in the same room, across town, and completely virtual. Each has its pros and cons, and your decision comes down to more than just saving a few dollars.
I’ll walk you through three important questions you need to ask yourself before bringing on a VA:
- Are you doing it only to cut costs — and what does that say about your hiring approach?
- How will you collaborate effectively across time zones, schedules, and meeting styles?
- Are the tasks you need done truly possible in a virtual environment?
I’ll share my own experiences — the good, the challenging, and the unexpected benefits — so you can make an informed choice for your business. Whether you’re leaning toward a local hire, a remote teammate, or an overseas VA, this episode will give you a clearer picture of what will work best for your workflow, your budget, and your values.
