Have way too much to do and not enough time to do it in? Wish you could have more time to spend with family and friends? Well, if you find yourself saying yes then you might want to consider the possibility of hiring a Virtual Assistant to help increase your productivity and eliminate the mundane tasks that often consume our precious time. There is nothing more valuable than your time, and you should treat it as so. Recently, entrepreneur Tim Ferriss did an interview on how a Virtual Assistant can save you both time and money without costing you an arm and a leg!
Interview:
Here is the full interview done by Eben Pagan with Tim Ferriss on the idea of outsourcing work through the use of a very affordable virtual assistant. Run time: 1 hour:
Tim Ferriss interview with Eben Pagan (Dec. 2009)
Highlights:
- Your time is the most valuable thing you own
- Outsource the daily tasks you don’t want to do to will free large chunks of time up
- Outsourcing can eliminate the miscellaneous tasks between being highly productive and complete relaxation
- A Virtual Assistant provides buffer between you and the rest of the world.
- Use Craigslist to find local virtual assistants at an affordable price
- You don’t have to be rich to have a Virtual Assistant (not even close)
- AskSunday.com is a highly recommended Virtual Assistant tool for anything such as last minute information, website queries, research, etc…
I would encourage anyone who only read the highlights above to find an hour to listen to the interview above as there are several great examples on how to go about finding one and how using a Virtual Assistant can be greatly beneficial to you. Be sure to check out AskSunday.com as well, which makes finding and using a Virtual Assistant a breeze. Just be prepared to pay a little more from a mainstream company like AskSunday over someone you find on Craigslist.
