If a job can be outsourced to a VA we first do that, instead of hiring a full time employee. This gives a unique execution advantage as hiring a VA takes in a few days rather than spending a few months hiring.

I realized where I was lacking was in generating leads and follow-ups. I did not realize that virtual assistants could generate leads for me. My VA also helped me with managing my calendar, invoices, HR and is now an integral part of our business.
