Choosing the Right Virtual Assistant

By
Services for Real Estate Pros with Second Self Virtual Assistance

I was a guest speaker for the Women's Council of Realtors® and was asked to tell the audience about being a Real Estate Virtual Assistant; what I do for Realtors®, how Realtors® can benefit from my services, etc.

The first question I asked was, "Is there anyone here who has never heard of a Real Estate Virtual Assistant?". To my surprise, a few hands went up. I would have expected that 17 years ago when I first started out. The response I usually got back then was a blank, deer in the headlights stare.

I've been wanting to create a video about choosing the right virtual assistant for a long time. But, I wanted it to be an in depth tutorial about more than just what a VA could do for you.

Here's What's Included in my "Choosing the Right Virtual Assistant" video:

  • What is Outsourcing?
  • Example of Outsourcing
  • Difference between a Virtual Assistant and an Employee
  • Creating an Outsourcing Plan
  • Budgeting for a Virtual Assistant
  • Interviewing a Virtual Assistant
  • Questions to ask a Potential VA
  • Top 10 Mistakes to Avoid and How to Avoid Them
  • Where to Find a Qualified Virtual Assistant
  • How to Get a Free 1/2 Hour Plan of Action Consultation - my shameless plug

As I said previously, this is an in depth video. So grab something to drink, put your feet up and see how to choose the right virtual assistant for you.

Hi Lisa - When I started my Real Estate Virtual Assistant company 17 years ago, I didn't even know what to call myself.  Glad someone came up with the title.

Thank you for commenting.
