Here are just some of the things you can hire a virtual assistant to do for you:
Customer Service: Answering emails and phone calls from customers.
Social Media Management: Curating content, replying to comments, and other community management tasks.
Research: Looking for a list of bloggers/influencers to reach out to or curating stats or examples you can use in a piece of content.
Store Management: Order fulfillment, inventory management, running sales for you (you can find VAs that have experience with Shopify, specifically).
Data-entry: Bookkeeping or inputting data from different sources into a spreadsheet.
Cold Calling: Making cold calls (usually provided with a script and canned responses to common questions), and scheduling meetings between you and prospects.
Personal Errands: Getting flowers bought and delivered to your mom for Mother’s Day.
From the uses cases above, you can already see how much time a VA can potentially save you if you were to incorporate one into your day.
When should you hire a virtual assistant?
Generally, you'll want to get your hands dirty first before you hand anything off to a virtual assistant. This way, you'll know how to teach them the process, what guidelines you need to set, and what good work looks like.
That said, here are some of the conditions where hiring a VA would be ideal, even for a relatively young business:
You're highly familiar with a process within your business and feel you could easily teach it to someone else.
You find yourself thinking, "I could do bigger, more important things if only I had the time".
You have the revenue or disposable income to go towards buying back your time.
There's a task that you find really draining, such as customer service, that doesn't come naturally to someone like you (e.g. you're an introvert and feel drained after answering a few emails).
You may not require full-time help, but just a handful of hours every day.
You've already explored IFTTT, Zapier, Kit (Shopify's free marketing charbot), and the App Store for ways to streamline a process, and found it'd be easier if another person just owned it.
You feel overwhelmed by the new success you're experiencing with your business, or you work a 9-to-5 and are building your business on the side.
As an ecommerce store owner, customer service is likely the first thing you’ll want to outsource when you start making sales at a steady pace. Dealing with customers is one of the most stressful, time-consuming challenges for many. And the more you sell, the more of time it will consume.
Think about the opportunity cost of continuing to perform a task on a regular basis. What is your time worth? If you spend an hour a day answering customer questions, what could you be doing instead with that time, energy, and attention?
You can let go of these tasks and use your newfound hours to chase greater profits and other pursuits—for an affordable price.
