It’s Almost a New Year: Build Your Virtual Team Now

Do you have the right team in place to support your business? Your goals probably involve the growth of your business, taking on new clients, expanding your services or product line, tackling more and larger projects, etc. No small business owner wants to get stuck in a rut or have their business stagnate. However, growth means more work.

A lot of small business owners view hiring an additional person to work on their business as a scary prospect. They worry about paying a salary, whether their need for support will remain consistent enough to warrant the commitment of a new employee, and how letting someone else take on their work will affect the way their business functions. However, there’s an easy solution to these concerns—hire a virtual team! Delegate some of the work so you can focus on building your business!

Virtual teams are also far more flexible than traditional part-time employees. You can pay for just the hours and services you need, and those hours and services can be changed from month to month as you find what works best for your business. Examples of services you can hire a virtual assistant or virtual team to handle for you include:

1. Marketing Services

The world of online marketing is a vast and complicated one and can suck up a lot more time than you have to devote to it. Many virtual assistants are well versed in doing social media, email marketing, running successful Facebook ads, and creating landing pages for your website.

2. Copywriting Services

Most business owners aren’t also masterful writers; it’s not their zone of genius. However, that makes the copywriting services of a virtual assistant all the more necessary. Whether your blog needs regular content posted, your website could use a refresh, you have press releases to make, or you need someone to take over writing newsletters, a virtual team can handle all your writing needs.

3. Technical Services

As a small business owner, you’re probably too busy to devote days to website development or integrating your online presence across multiple platforms. A virtual team can be far more effective whether you’re looking to get a new website launched or open an online store or e-commerce checkout service.

4. Design Services

Hiring a virtual assistant who specializes in design to handle your visual presence on the web can make your company look more professional with fresh graphic design, a beautiful new website layout, or new branding or logos on products and business cards.

5. Administrative Services

Furthermore, most small business owners would cite admin work as the #1 time-eater in their work life. It’s an easy first step to lightening your to-do list. Stop things falling through the cracks with effective project management and conscientious client care. Good virtual admin work can help your business build and maintain a great brand reputation in the new year!
