Benefits
Here are the main benefits of using Virtualoso as your Virtual Assistant
COST EFFECTIVE SERVICE
Virtualoso operates from a home-based office environment, using my own state-of-the-art equipment, furniture, heating and lighting. Tax and NI issues are taken care of, and working hours are organised according to clients needs. In a nutshell, Virtualoso offers you a complete range of administrative and PA services on a “pay-as-you-go” basis.
You engage Virtualoso’s services as little or as often as you need - maybe a few hours a week, a couple of days a month, or for specific “one-off” assignments. You simply pay for the hours worked and you free yourself from the hassle of employing somebody full, or even part time: no tax issues, no PAYE complications, no sickness or holiday pay to calculate, no training commitments.
SAVING YOU VALUABLE TIME
How many hours a week or month do you “waste” organising your own diary, meetings, travel and accommodation requirements? How frustrating is it when your evenings and weekends get eaten up with tedious tasks like typing up reports or drafting standard business letters?
Handing over such tasks to Virtualoso will free up your valuable time, allowing you to develop your own business, safe in the knowledge that your regular admin duties are being taken care of in a professional and efficient manner. This, in turn, will allow you some quality time to pursue your own personal interests.
SPECIALIST SKILLS
Linguist trained - a working knowledge of a few European languages and cultures has provided opportunities to work with partners throughout Europe and beyond on a variety of research projects for many years.
Shorthand Note-taking and Transcription - an invaluable asset as we’re a dying breed! Digital dictation is the norm these days, but imagine being able to pick up the phone and dictate that all important script, report or business letter as soon as you get a flash of inspiration - wherever you are.
European Commission - proposal submission to the EC, together with project management and reporting, is almost exclusively done online now. Virtualoso has experience of all these processes, dealing with first drafts of a proposal, through the application and award processes, then the contractual maze, co-ordinating all the partner meetings throughout Europe, collating technical and financial data for report production and ensuring all EC deadlines are met for the term of the contract.
A 24-HOUR BUSINESS
We all know running a 24-hour business seems an unlikely concept. But think about it…… A client in Australia or in the US finishes his regular working day, waves goodbye to his PA, but still has a stack of things to get through, or targets to meet, before he starts work the next day. So, what should he do?
Talk to Virtualoso and create a 24-hour business. Send draft documents, digital dictation or that all important presentation - with clear written instructions - and have it completed overnight and delivered back to the office by morning.
For clients in opposite time zones to Virtualoso, this service is a major bonus to increasing productivity and staying one step ahead of the competition. It’s an option definitely worth thinking about isn’t it?
FLEXIBILITY AND CONTINUITY
Knowing you can contact Virtualoso as and when you need, on a flexible “pay-as-you-go” basis, is a huge benefit to clients. So many hours get wasted sourcing a “temp” every time you need that extra work done. What about the time spent explaining your business, how the equipment works, what your standard format and output is?
Virtualoso understands that nightmare, which is why all your business needs will be discussed at the initial consultation. You can rest assured that Virtualoso will endeavour to build an individual reference map of your business and its needs so that you can expect continuity in the service provided each time we work together.
What more could you ask for?
A top class PA service as and when you need it - no commitment, no hidden costs, just a set fee for a set assignment.
