Pay Your Virtual Assistants Fairly

Pay your virtual assistants fairly, depending on the country you sourced from, that's going to change which wages they get. I always like to pay them a little more than what they normally get in that same role. So, let's say someone hires for a low wage. I'm gonna hire them for more.

They're going to take more pride and actually get the job done in a better fashion. They're going to enjoy coming to work. Basically, one of my old employees, one of my old VAs, was making a certain amount per month and then she started working with me making 3x the amount. This made a huge change for her and her family.

Worried about virtual assistants stealing your business IP and your data? Use these fail-safes to make sure nothing bad happens.

The first one I like to use is an NDA or a non-compete. I don't want anything bad to happen. I want to keep everything inside my business very private, especially if someone has been working on the inside of it.

The second way is to use password management systems like Dashlane, 1Password, or LastPass. This is a great way to securely save and share data with someone who's working all across the globe.

Here's How to Easily Train Virtual Assistants

Virtual assistants - here's how to easily train them:

The first step is to have a standard operating procedure, which provides exact instructions for the VA to achieve the desired result for your business.

The second step is to have clear communication. When hiring a VA, it's helpful to have three Zoom calls per week during the first two weeks. These calls don't need to be long, just 10-15 minutes to check in, see how they're doing with the task, improve the process, and ensure everything is going as planned. After the first two weeks, the number of Zoom calls can be reduced, and the VA can be available through Slack for any questions. This approach has served well in the past without any issues.

Tell Your Virtual Assistants Exactly What To Do

Business owners can avoid a common mistake when hiring a virtual assistant by providing them with a clear procedure to follow.
Hiring a virtual assistant just to save time without providing them with specific instructions is not sufficient.

You must provide them with a standard operating procedure, detailing what you want to be done and how you want it done.

With this, they will be able to take care of your tasks and help you succeed. However, if you don't give them a clear procedure, they won't be able to deliver any results.

My Insights from Placing Tons of Virtual Assistants

Autonomy is key.

So when hiring someone, I want to make sure that they are a self-starter, a go-getter.

I would rather have someone come to me at the end of the day and say "Hey Ben, I'm going to start my own thing, I'm going to build my own company," because the work they've done for me is super good and they outgrew their position and moved on. It was the right fit.

I'd much rather have that than deal with replacing and working with someone who is shy, timid, and doesn't self-start. It's less productive for both of us if they're always asking me questions about how to do the task. I want to work with self-starters.

The second thing is SOPs are king. If you don't give them exact, airtight SOPs on how to do the task, you're setting yourself up for failure. How can you improve the process if you don't know each step of the way?
