Delegating Daily Tasks Helps You Grow Your Business

Business is booming all over despite the economy. Entrepreneurs are running fast and hard to build their businesses every day. Many are spending more time on running their business rather than growing it. They spend their time on email, blog posts, newsletter content, social media, marketing, phone calls, and other routine work. They have no time to attract new clients and design new programs, services and products.

One way to make time for growing a business and increasing income is to delegate the time-consuming, difficult and even unpleasant daily tasks to a Virtual Assistant. Here are some tips on hiring a VA:

1. Take one to two weeks to "follow yourself" through your day.
2. Write down everything you do during your business day.
3. Note how long each task takes.
4. Review your list and determine which tasks are too time consuming, difficult to do effectively, and/or are not fun to do.
5. Decide which tasks you can delegate to the Virtual Assistant(s) you intend to hire.
6. Check Google, Twitter, Facebook and ask fellow entrepreneurs for referrals for Virtual Assistants they know.
7. Contact the potential Virtual Assistants you find who may be compatible and qualified with the skills you require.
8. Conduct interviews.
9. Choose the Virtual Assistant(s) that best suits your needs, personality and business model.

Once you have hired the number of Virtual Assistants you need, you can take that new-found time to focus on the areas of your business that will make it grow and increase your income. You now have time to attract and attend to new clients, design new programs, and create new products and services to bring in the income you desire. Your Virtual Team will take of the everyday tasks while you do what you love and make more money, too.
