A full time staff member in Australia receives 20 days annual leave, 10 days of sick leave, 10 public holidays and 7200 minutes in paid breaks. Not to mention 9% superannuation. On a $50,000 salary that is $15,000 spent BEFORE any work is completed. Don’t forget about office space, computers, mobile phones, internet and tea and coffee...
With such a large out of pocket expense, it is no wonder many business owners attempt to ‘do it all’, juggling their professional tasks with marketing, public relations and general administrative tasks. However ‘doing it all’ is not necessarily cost effective. Every hour spent on a non billable task is costing you money. A lawyer who spends an hour reconciling their accounts, loses an hour’s pay – a builder doing paperwork isn’t earning money.
The Virtual Assistant industry offers an alternative solution. A virtual assistant is a home based professional who provides services to business owners ‘virtually’

Most Virtual Assistants charge an hourly rate and offer a variety of services. “Results Virtual Assistant provides general administrative work, however we also specialise in Marketing, Social Media and Public Relations”.
Would you rather spend $15,000 in expenses for a full time staff member or put that money towards over 350 hours of Virtual Assistance?
