Many business owners try to do everything themselves. Unfortunately, that means they spend time on several things that take longer than they would like to complete. It can also mean you need help so you aren’t spending all your time just treading water in your business instead of attempting to grow it. Here are some things to help you decide if it’s time to outsource some of that work.
Outsource Work During these Situations…
- When you do certain tasks on a regular basis such as answering daily emails, data entry, entering purchase orders, or sending invoices to your customers.
- If you know a task so well you could do it without thinking, that actually is a menial task. It is also good that you can do this so that you can train a VA how to do the job for you faster.
- Do you know that 20% of your tasks provide 80% of the value of your business? Yup. So that means those repetitive tasks you are wasting time doing are actually not helping your business grow and wasting your own pay on things which could help you better.
- One of the easiest things to figure out you need a VA is that you aren’t ready to hire anyone full-time to help.
- Finally, do it when you have the funds. Yes a VA can help you by doing repetitive tasks but if you don’t have the money to pay them, it will just stress you out.
