What Can Virtual Assistants Help You With?  (The real question is, what CAN’T Virtual Assistants help you with?) Lots of business leaders think Virtual Assistants are only for answering emails and scheduling meetings. While it’s great to have support with these tasks, they’re not all a VA can do. Over 60% of VAs hold a college degree, and their expertise and training fall all over the map. 1. Administrative Expertise: Our Advocates are amazing at admin, it’s kind of like our thing! Not only can you leverage this when it comes to managing schedules and handling communication, but also for organizing data, automating repetitive tasks, and creating operational structures for your business.  2. Marketing Know-How: Many of our Advocates have training in marketing and social media. They can support you with content creation, analytics, and more to make sure your brand is getting in front of the right people. 3. Project Management Skills: Advocates are great at making sure projects run on time and within budget. They’re masters of keeping projects moving and leveraging tools like Trello and Asana to do it.
