Posted by Regis Pelletier | Filed under Business
Perhaps like many professional you felt you couldn’t afford professional support services. Many businesses, sole operators and professionals in need of admin support and assistant services have had to rely on temps or their own resources in times of staff shortage. That was until NOW. Join the new trend of office support professional - helping 21st Century professionals with the support they needs … virtually!
If you’re a sole operator or independent professional/executive in need of professional, confidential admin support, but don’t want to go to the expense and hassle involved in hiring your own staff. What do you do?
Do you have the capacity, staff or expertise to undertake new specific projects? What if Your best office support staff member goes off on maternity leave and you think your only alternative is to hire an expensive and unmotivated temp?
For many people grasping the concept of a remote assistant is difficult, so it is not surprising that understanding the benefits poses a problem. So what are the benefits, what’s in it for you and who would benefit from the partnership?
There are none of the associated costs of wear and tear, office space, lighting, power, telephone and so on when utilizing the professional services of Fil-Can Communications. Services also known as Virtual Office Professionals, Virtual Business Associates or VA’s that can be performed the same as office-based employees but without the associated costs such as payroll tax, worker’s compensation, superannuation, sick and other leave, or training.
One of the best benefit is that Fil-Can Communications is available out of normal hours, on weekends, and public holidays, basically 24/7. How much would you gain, both in monetary terms and in terms of productivity, on office politics and staff chatting in the coffee room? Remember that clients pay only for time on task when they partner with us so there is no time/money lost on these typical office behaviors.
Fil-Can Communications partners with YOU our client, which means that a longer term relationship can develop in much the same way as one would with an onsite personal assistant - yet clients do not have the associated costs of an employee.
So why wouldn’t you just use a temporary staffing agency to “fill the gaps” in your administrative support needs? Temps do not always offer the most cost effective solutions for clients as on-costs are still factored into the hourly rate by the agency. In addition, when clients partner with Fil-Can Communications they get consistency of support - not a different person each time they need assistance, necessitating training of each new temp in their business procedures. We have a vested interest in helping YOU, the client succeeds in your own business goals - a temp does not have the same interest.
