- What is your true reason for attending this webinar?

So why did you become an Entrepreneur? To control your finances To achieve true freedom and become your own boss To spend more time with your loved ones To achieve a higher purpose or calling in life Pursue your true passion
- It feels lonely. It’s difficult Too much time consuming busy work and easy to lose focus on what is important Lack of systems and processes; just going with the wind Failure is painful
- You Save time Increase productivity You can now Focus on growing your business
- Strategic Planning I suggest you read the E-Myth Revisted by Michael Gerber Innovating– Finding new and better ways to get things done in your business Quantifying – verifying the results you get from your innovation against old ways of doing things. Split testing results, monitoring results Orchestrating – Actually getting things done, implemention Creating Key Point Indicators for monitor the success of each task in your business Planning and setting Timelines Hiring and firing Deal Making Product and business development Networking
- So how do we figure out the value of your time, as in how much one hour of your time is worth?
- Lets be very conservative with our example and hence Lets say you want to earn $100,000 in 12 months You want to work 5 days a week You want to work 8 hours a day Also want to work 48 weeks in the year because you want to take a months vacation
- To determine the value of your time using this example 5 days a week X 8 hours a day X 48 weeks per year E = a total of 1920 hours for the entire year. Your hourly rate = $100000 / 1920 = $52 per hour This means you should only be working on tasks worth $52 or higher per hour and everything else should be outsourced to your virtual assistant Note the actual value of your will time vary depending on how much you want to make at the end of the year and also how many days, hours and weeks in the year you want to work so it can indeed be much higher than my example
- Using our example you now know what one hour of your time is worth. Lets dive in and talk about your potential profit when you delegate
- Explain the table and highlight how if they delegate the tasks to a virtual assistant they are gaining money
- Cut unnecessary cost Reduced cost of hiring a VA vs Full Time Employee At the end of webinar will show a table which shows the cost of a VA from H.Y.V.A. Vs a Full Time Employee No utilities (Internet/Electricity/Phone bills) No employments costs (Recruiting / Training / Unemployment benefits) No sick time / Vacation / Employment related lawsuits You Make and Save more money You get to Design the Lifestyle you desire
- Give the audience a chance to ask questions If they have any VA related question tell them that you will answer it in the next section
- Here is the 2nd survey/poll questions , please answer. Question: Do you know what a Virtual Assistant is? Question: Have you ever hired a Virtual Assistant? Question: Do you have task to outsource?
- Here is the 2nd survey/poll questions , please answer. Question: Do you know what a Virtual Assistant is? Question: Have you ever hired a Virtual Assistant? Question: Do you have task to outsource?
- A Virtual Assistant is a service provider with the necessary training and skills to handle your administrative, technical or creative tas ks. They do not work in your office ; remote and hence virtual Joke: A VA can do anything for you except bring you a fresh cup of coffee in the morning. They can order it!
- Outsourcing is the delegation of a particular task in your business to a third party company or person with the right skill to get the job done. It literally means going outside of your company to look for the right resources to help you get stuff done in your business Outsourcing used to be only for the Fortune 500 companies who went to foreign countries and built facilities and infrastructure needed for people to work for them Technology and the internet has made it easier for the small guy to outsource task and reap the benefits.
- Don’t outsource throwaway tasks eliminate them Anything that just does not make sense for your business anymore Anything that has not ROI based on verify results Example in my business was posting links the A9 method for internet marketing Don’t outsource tasks you should be doing Strategic planning Hiring and Firing Deal Making Networking Product / Business Development
- Here are examples of tasks to outsource: Administrative and recurring ; data entry, bookeeping etc Non-income producing activities ; checking emails, Time consuming tasks you know how to do but don’t want to ; updating blogs and social media site, checking emails Tasks you have no idea how to execute ; you do not have the skills for them; web programming and design Special Situations: Income producing ; marketing, customer service and telemarketing In cases like this the Virtual Assistant ends up paying for themselves The Ultimate Goal: 80/20 rule: Spend 80% of your time on income producing activities, 20% on non-income Start by outsourcing everything that is non-income producing Eventually start outsourcing the income producing activities that are you least favorite Focus only income producing activities you most passionate about
- You ideally should spend 80% of your time on income producing activities 20% on non-income producing activities Your ultimate goal is to: Start by outsourcing everything that is non-income producing Eventually start outsourcing the income producing activities that are you least favorite Focus only income producing activities you most passionate about
- Keep a journal of what you do 90% of the time for each workday over a week period Categorize each task “ L” stands for “Love it!” “ D” stands for “I do it, but don’t really like it” “ H” stands for “Hate it and I procrastinate as much as I can” Keep track of the time you spend doing each task Begin by outsourcing anything task with “H” As you get comfortable start outsourcing task with “D” Why do you need to go through this process? so that you can invest freed up time on income producing activities
- You need to determine the skills required for the task you want to outsource You need to determine the type of personality required , the type you work best with Determine if they are a culture fit; match your company cultural and goals Have the right frame of mind , It might not work at first and you do not give up
- In order for outsourcing tasks to a Virtual Assistant to work; you must properly delegate the task Most people confuse Abdication for Delegation Abdication is when you get rid of something , handing over a task without clearly explaining the details of what you need done, the results desired and so on Abdication is assuming that skill is all the other person needs to get you job done the way you like it Delegation on the other hand is an active and engaging process that requires your full participation
- P for Prepare: Explain: Work you know Vs Work you don’t know how to do Preparation is the hardest part Brainstorm the entire task to be outsourced; your desired results, the process to achieve the results, and standards / metrices you will use in judging the results Create an outline or systems manual ; this can be very detailed outline or a blueprint guide The benefit of creating a system; is that you know what to expect and can make improvements as you go. E for Explain: This step the Auditory by nature and involves you clearly explaining to the Virtual Assistant what you need done, how to get it done, why you need it done and so on. D for Demonstrate: This step is visual by nature and it involves you showing the Virtual Assistant how you get things done You follow the steps in your system / process manual Use videos to save time. Do it once and you don’t have to do it again A for Apply: AKA Kinesthetic Learning; here you instruct the VA to carry out the instructions you created They learn by doing F for Follow up: Outsourcing requires patience , room for mistakes and improvement Give feedback and encourage the virtual assistant
- Explain table above Additional points In conclusion if you spend 10 hours of your time to show your Virtual Assistant what you need done the ROI is awesome Anytime you are saying I don’t have the time to do it , think about the possible ROI if you did. Also try to record and audio or create a video with instructions so that once you spend the initial time to do it. You do not have to keep doing it again even if you change VAs
