Western New York - Heather A. Koch, Virtual Assistant states the advantages of using services of a Virtual Assistant are endless. Ms. Koch suggests that the services of a Virtual Assistant can help some business owners focus on things that are more detrimental to the success of their business. “The sole proprietor or small business owner can concentrate more on his/her clients’ needs, following up on leads, billable hours, and less time on petty employee issues, office administration, setting up their office, etc.,” Ms. Koch states.
According to Ms. Koch, Virtual Assistants are on the increase. Ms. Koch states, “They are popping up all over the place in the US, in Canada, and in other countries, but in the region where I am, not too many people have heard of Virtual Assistants. People I have spoken with indicate they aren’t familiar with the term virtual assistant.” Ms. Koch advises that people do research to find out how much it costs them in salary(ies), employee taxes, paid time off, insurance plans, and other costs associated with hiring employees.
