My blog is called "The 10 Hour VA" and I am often asked about it. People think that I am limiting myself to saying that I will only work with clients for a maximum of 10 hours per month, which isn't true. I will take clients, space permitting, for up to 25 hours per month. But your name is supposed to attract attention and convey a message, right? Well, the message that I want to convey, is that I can create a lot of value for my clients in just up to 10 hours per month!
My concept is that clients who partner with me for 10 hours per month, on retainer, have a clear outlined value that they can expect to receive. I'm not going to punch a time clock, I am not going to be micro-managed and report to my clients every minute of my time - because all that does is waste time, what I am going to do is work. Work to achieve value for my clients. Money comes hard, especially these days with the turn in the market...I have faith that it will turn around...but I want to work with you now, and show you how working with eRealty Network, LLC can improve your overall marketing efforts, administrative effectiveness, and basically take over the parts of running your business that you put off or don't excel at and help your business grow financially. Then maybe that money will come a little easier...
Don't believe me? Here are some examples of what can be accomplished on my The Value of 10 plan:
Example #1:
- Update blog weekly
- Update print version of office inventory weekly
- Update listings on website weekly
- Update contacts in database and send out newsletter monthly
(This stuff has to be done and the value of having it done well by a virtual assistant specializing in real estate support services, as opposed to by an entry level in office assistant who just wants to collect her weekly paycheck is astonishing.)
Example #2:
- Prepare listing presentations
- Research and contact the expired listings in your target area
- Research and contact the FSBOs in your target area
- Send greeting cards to your sphere of influence
(Just one contract obtained from either of these methods could more than pay for our fees for about 2 years!)
Example #3: (we call this our Web 2.0 package)
- Focuses all our time on marketing your site on the web...everything from search engine optimization, blogging, improving website content for search engine performance, writing press releases and submitting them, submitting your site to various real estate directories, constantly keeping website and content fresh and new to improve your rankings and bring you new traffic.
(Don't get left behind...who's the agent in your office or neighborhood who seems to be the "charmed one"? You can bet that whomever they are...they are paying attention to all things internet! 80% of all home buyers use the Internet, according to a NAR profile from 2006...and those numbers have most likely increased since then.)
Those are just a few samples of how working with The 10 Hour VA can improve your overall business performance and free you up to sell real estate! Your package can be as customized as you like, according to your needs, a complete list of our services can be found towards the bottom of the page here; however if you don't see a service that you are interested in than please ask me - I'm sure I can help. Like I said above, I do offer higher retainer packages containing more hours; however, I feel that the value that can be brought to your business just by partnering with me for 10 hours is a great way to start.
