<\/span><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\nWhat work can be done remotely?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n\n- Tasks that are easily explained, but are time-consuming<\/li>\n
- Anything that can be explained in a SOP (Standard Operating Procedure; basically a step-by-step explanation of each task)<\/li>\n
- Repetitive tasks that have to be done again and again<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
Basically, you can outsource any task, as long as you can offer guidance on what\u2019s needed.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
How to find a virtual assistant?<\/h2>\n\n\n\nIf you want to get the most from collaborating with a VA, these are the five steps, and the order in which you should take them:<\/p>\n
1. Dedicate:<\/strong>\u00a0Figure out what you want to do, and how you want to spend your time, energy and headspace;
\n2. Eliminate:<\/strong> Anything that doesn\u2019t need to be done;
\n3. Simplify:<\/strong> What is left;
\n4. Automate:<\/strong> What can be automated;
\n5. Then Delegate:<\/strong> The tasks that can be done by others.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\nLooking for remote work?<\/h2>\n
Before registering on the platforms below, take these steps:<\/p>\n
\n- Know your added value<\/li>\n
- Collect testimonials<\/li>\n
- Invest in your skills. You provide services to clients, and most of them do not have the time to train you, so you must be a self-starter.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
My Digital Delegation book<\/a> may be useful to you as well, as you’ll learn exactly what entrepreneurs are looking for and you can tailor your services to their needs. Happy job hunting!<\/p>\nRemote Work Platforms:<\/h2>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\nRemote work general<\/h3>\n
