14 reasons you might love to hire a Virtual Assistant
Whenever you start up your business you may realise from very early on or come slowly to the realisation that to make it grow you cant do everything by yourself ! And nor should you. If you take the time out to do the maths of how much money you are actually saving yourself by -building your own website -creating all your own social media posts -doing all the bookkeeping by yourself , you will soon realise you arent saving any at all and its time to get someone in who can do it in half the time and possibly half the price.
