There is no stopping on how your outsource workers or virtual assistants care for you and your businesses. Be more sensitive and appreciative to little things and ideas they introduce to improve your system and products. You may have a good library of knowledge about your products and company but your virtual assistants have vast experienced working as back end support from several companies and entrepreneurs. That experience is gold, tap it! You would be fortunate enough if you are able to hire one outsource worker that would truly care for your business like their own and for you like a friend. The effort could be amazing which almost always result to higher productivity because of the level of camaraderie you establish with your workers that will make them do more than what is regular or normal speed. Again, you did not hire a robot. You hired a personal virtual assistant so learn how to tap their skills and motivate them not by remuneration alone but through words of appreciation also. Do this and there is no limit to what they can do to serve you better!
Hello everyone. In order to help you meet your needs I have practically decided to post here for some classified ads. You may visit my site as often as you need to find qualified work assignments. This is to help you increase your earnings and hope to find long term customers. Let's start today:
People are changing fast… as fast as the speed of technology. The most common scenes are Virtual Assistants crowding freelance sites and Craigslist looking for jobs while business entrepreneurs do the same scouring for the cheapest labor in the market. Well the cheapest labor is in India and Philippines if you are going to ask me. The only thing that I have observed is business entrepreneurs almost strangling basic needs against prices. What I mean is that they bargain on cutting cost of services to almost half. I’ve met a lot of them cutting even my US$5 to half because other people are offering it.
Yup young ones have the edge to cut on rates because they only have themselves to look after. We married ones with children have a lot of things and bills to pay monthly. The idea is to compute basic needs and start pricing services from there. Of course we would want to give efficient dedicated service without over committing so as not to affect productivity at the lowest cost. I feel that is fair enough. We can give half the cost but productivity will suffer because there is still the need to cope up with the difference in pay in order to meet bills payments.
As of this day I have been maintaining two long term customers. I can say I am quite satisfied working with them not only because of the pay but because I have more focus, more time to make research on ways to help innovate and improve products and services. Yes, I do much more than the usual work assignment they send me. I tried to help boost their sales by making research and helping them with their products and services. It is what I call scratching backs. I help them with their businesses and they help me meet my needs.
