Do you need an internet virtual assistant?

If you are a  small business owner, you know that time is a precious commodity.  How much of it do you spend on administrative tasks when you could be growing and developing your business?  As time goes on, you can find that you can’t do everything on your own and that office management tasks can start to take over the time you want for creating your business and increasing your productivity and profits.  However, you may not want to employ an administrative assistant to deal with the more mundane tasks.  You might not have the space to hire an in-house assistant, you might not want to pay the extra costs in taxes, insurances and benefits that hiring a full or part-time employee would involve, or you might not have all the office equipment necessary for an in-house assistant to work with. This is where hiring a Virtual Assistant could be the answer.  Virtual Assistants are a group of independent professionals who provide all your administrative, technical or even creative needs at a fraction of the cost of hiring a full or part-time administrative assistant.  They can do everything from general correspondence, maintaining websites and social networking profiles, writing brochures and press releases, to copy and audio typing, follow-up calls and diary management.  Virtual Assistants can also specialise in website building, blogging, internet research or translation services.
