VA = Benefits

Virtual Assistants = Benefits

One of the most important benefits with me is the partnership that is formed. 

You aren't just simply 'working' with the VA, but you are working with a Virtual Partner. Our success is solely dependant on yours. We take the time to carefully learn about you, your business and your goals. Together, we will devise plans, streamline your processes and establish what you need in order to exceed your goals.

As your VA and partner, we will alleviate your time-consuming and often dreaded tasks, those that usually cut into your productivity. Remember, we're not just an assistant that clocks out at the end of the day, we're an extension of your own business. 

Partnering with Virtual Business Partners will:

• Reduces your costs  - There's no office space, equipment, training, benefits and taxes, or employee vacation time to worry about. 
• Focus - You'll now have the 'luxury' of being able to focus, stay on track and keep to your schedule.
• Flexibility -  You only pay for the time you need and not employee down-time associated with smoking breaks, idle chit-chat, etc. 
• All necessary skills at your fingertips - You can be confident in our skill set and experience to get the job done, done right and done on time. 
• Professionalism - Rest assured that all of your projects will be completed professionally, something you can be proud of.
• A Partnership - You'll be building a collaborative, on-going relationship with a fellow business owner, along with her team, who realize that their success is based solely on the success of their clients' business. 

When you hire an employee, instead of a Virtual Assistant, you must:

•  Pay employer social security taxes.
•  Pay workers' compensation insurance.
•  Collect and pay FICA taxes.
•  Pay federal and state unemployment taxes.
•  Comply with OSHA.
•  Abide by your legal responsibilities which include policies on working hours, sexual harassment, vacation & sick time, leave of absence, holidays, benefits, performance reviews, grievances, terminations, substance abuse and training, etc.
•  Comply with the Federal Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) including minimum wage and overtime payment.
•  Be aware that if you lay them off your employee, your employment rate may increase for years to come.
•  Be sure to have legal grounds or you may face a lawsuit if you have to fire an employee.
•  Comply with Employee Retirement Income Security Act (ERISA)

You may also:

•  Possibly have to pay medical benefits, dental benefits, vision care benefits.
•  Possibly have to pay vacation time, sick time, and holiday time.
•  Possibly have to pay for other employee benefits such as 401K, retirement plans, etc.
•  Have to pay someone to administrate the benefits you offer.

But at the end of the day, there's really just one way to truly benefit working with a VA that's also your partner…. and that's by experiencing it first-hand.
