As a business owner, you know that administrative tasks are a significant drain on your time. But have you ever thought about how much time these tasks are costing you?
Let’s break this down to see how hiring a virtual assistant can save you up to 10 hours each week.
Assuming a typical workweek of 40 hours, here’s how the time might be spent:
-
Administrative Tasks (20% to 30%):
-
20% of 40 hours = 8 hours
-
30% of 40 hours = 12 hours
-
This means that, on average, you could be spending between 8 to 12 hours per week on administrative tasks alone. Let's break this down even further.
The Time-Saving Power of a Virtual Assistant
Here are specific tasks a virtual assistant handles on a daily basis and the average time spent on each:
-
Email Management:
-
Average time spent: 2.5 hours/week
-
-
Calendar Management:
-
Average time spent: 1.5 hours/week
-
-
Client Support:
-
Average time spent: 2 hours/week
-
-
Social Media:
-
Average time spent: 2.5 hours/week
-
-
Research, Data Entry & Invoicing:
-
Average time spent: 1.5 hours/week
-
Total Time Saved = 2.5 + 1.5 + 2 + 2.5 + 1.5 = 10 hours/week
By hiring a virtual assistant, you can easily save 10 hours a week that you would otherwise spend on routine administrative tasks.
How would you spend an additional 10 hours a week? Regardless of how you would personally answer that question, it’s clear that a virtual assistant is a valuable asset in reclaiming your time and enhancing productivity.
