Temporary employees come and go.
Virtual Assistants seek long-term partnerships with their clients.
When you hire a temp employee you pay ridiculous agency FEES!
VA’s only charge for the time spent completing your projects.
Unlike temporary employees, Virtual Assistants are self-employed professionals who will partner with you to assist in the growth and success of your business. Because VA’s act as partners rather than employees, he/she has a vested interest in the success of your business. Their success is measured by your success! VA’s tend to work harder than the average person issued to you by a temporary agency, and they are equipped with experience, education up-to-date technology, supplies and work ethic.
Unlike VA’s, temporary employees have no vested interest in the success of your business. They require training and a period of adjustment that YOU pay for! Once you factor in agency fees, office space, equipment, lunch and social breaks, the temporary employee actually costs 2 to 3 times more than the cost of a virtual assistant.
