Which do you hate more: answering emails, trying to update your website or managing your time?
Tackling the inbox
Trying to keep on top of enquiries, updates and requests is a never-ending chore that can distract you from focusing on connecting with your customers and growing your business – the more meaningful stuff.
Did you know that the average professional spends 28% of the work day reading and answering emails AND only 38% of emails are important and relevant?
And we get it... it’s hard to find the time to craft beautifully written newsletters and promotional emails BUT – email is considered one of the most effective channels for marketing, with 79% of marketers placing it in their top 3 (and customers ranking it as #1!)
What if we were to tell you that a VA can help cut down the amount of time you spend in your inbox and free you from the shackles known as email management and marketing?
You may think it’s easier to give a VA ad-hoc tasks, but recurring tasks such as managing your inbox is something that would probably save you the most time, effort and stress. Offloading recurring tasks allows you to take advantage of this reclaimed time every day/ week on a continual basis. Imagine never having to sort through an unruly inbox EVER. AGAIN.
Which email tasks can we help with?
· Reviewing and tidying your inbox – only give you the information you need.
· Create folders and filters – ensure your inbox is clutter-free.
· Respond to emails - as long as you provide the guidelines and correct information about your business, we can reply to all generic emails and craft the perfect responses.
· Schedule / reschedule meetings in your calendar.
· Create promotional emails and schedule them for the right time.
· Add new subscribers and remove them.
· Create mailing lists for personalised email content.
· Curate interesting content for newsletters.
Getting personal
It’s not just office admin that can be a burden, life admin can be just as time consuming (and annoying).
What if we were to tell you that organising your life-admin to-do list is one of our favourite tasks?
What kinds of things can we help with?
· Booking those dentist appointments that you keep forgetting to do!
· Organising your family calendar, making sure no one gets double booked. Your husband will never be able to go golfing during your best friend's son’s first birthday party again! 😉
· Sourcing gifts and cards for special occasions.
· Scheduling appointments and reservations.
· Researching products and services – researching internet providers or choosing the best toaster in replacement of your old and broken one.
· Travel arrangements – finding the best flight deals.
· Ordering your food shopping to be delivered to your door.
· Organising digital files.
By handing over these tasks, it allows you to focus on the important matters, such as family time!
Getting digital
Writing quality content to ensure visitors want to stay on your website is important. How easy is it to navigate your website? Can visitors look on your website and find what they need quickly and easily?
If the answer was no, you could probably do with some help…

· Maintain support pages – quickly find the information visitors are looking for.
