Our professional and personal lives are busier than ever before. We are bombarded with requests and demands hour-by-hour, day-by-day and week-by-week. We have busy times, busier times and crazy times. Our to-do-list can then seem like it is shrinking ... but then it starts getting longer again. Help!
You are a busy professional, a small business owner, a freelancer or a mother, father or anyone in between. Imagine a day where you have no PA/administrative/lifestyle support and the following happens:
You get to the office or open your computer and you find 50 unopened emails in your inbox and most of them are simple enquiries that need responding to (so time consuming)
You need to book a flight (today)
You need to collect your suits from the dry cleaners as you have an important meeting in the afternoon (another 30 minutes you can't afford to waste)
Your washing machine has broken and you need to order a new one (research, order, arrange a plumber)
There are meeting requests and social invitations you haven't responded to and some of them are this week (all of them are important)
Your son is having a birthday party and you need to organise food, send invitations, order an entertainer (where do you begin!)
You groan inwardly and get on with all 6 tasks and before you know it it's lunch time and you haven't even done any income based work.
The good news is a PA can take care of all of this without even breaking out in a sweat!
Imagine this same day starting out differently. You start the day by outsourcing all of these tasks to a freelance PA. You just pick up the phone and say "Please take care of all of this for me" and so it happens! You then use the morning doing income based work, spend time with your family, or catch up with friends. You reduce your stress, become more organised and get your life back!
Of course, we do not always have days like this, which is why the flexibility of hiring a freelance PA is an ideal solution for small businesses or freelancers, either in a professional capacity or for their personal lives. All of the above does not require a desk or even being in the same vicinity. You can use the PA on a pay-as-you-go basis without being tied into an expensive ongoing contract. They are highly skilled at organising, saving time, and getting through to-do-lists as long as their arms.
