Monday Marvels – Roundtable Member Q&A
Description:
VAs can be a wonderful addition to your business or they can rob you of a tremendous amount of time. Which way your appointment would go would depend largely on appointing the right candidate, the type of training you provide, how well you explain the industry, where they fit in and why what they do is important and then never forget to maintain some level of a personal relationship with them to ensure a team feeling. During this session the team covered what appears to be shared concerns regarding VA as well as what works well for them.
