Virtual Assistance: The New World Economy and Conducting Business
By Jessica Farrell
 Things are changing right before our eyes in the world at a pace that seems hard to keep up with. Many people are unemployed and underemployed and the need for income has not slowed, in fact for most things the prices are rising. Whether due to increased transportation expenses, new taxes or natural disasters; the bottom line is that we all pay the price and are looking for ways to soften the blow.
In the personal and virtual assistance industry, we have seen an increase in the need for businesses to these services. While they have been forced to lay off employees, they did not simple loose the need for their service; rather the ability to keep them on the payroll. Personal and Virtual Assistance, as provided by As You Wish...Personal and Virtual Assistance in Phoenix, AZ; is a great alternative to this growing issue in small businesses. By allowing the business to get assistance on an on-call fashion, the company can effectively increase their budgets bottom-line by cutting their overhead; yet not short themselves the assistance needed to get the job done quickly and cost effectively.
Some of the benefits of a small business using virtual assistants include the savings on the overhead and supplies since they work from their own office, as well as increased availability since they often work night and weekends and my even be in another time zone. Besides those advantages, Virtual Services often offer a vast range of knowledge and skills you may not personally have, they usually have the ability to jump right in to any situation and the businesses will save money by only paying the virtual assistant for the time worked and not a full day.
This new world economy is certainly changing the framework of the old fashion business day. Allowing for people to work from home or mobile office, hiring easily accessible temp-help as needed and/or out-sourcing when it helps to get the done more quickly and effectively.
