Ep57: Why VAs Are a Smarter Investment than EAs for Startups

Maybe you’re a start up CEO, the business is scaling or recently closed a funding round and your diary is utterly out of control, you need to stop spending hours in your inbox too and it’s time to get the proper help in.

You’re starting to shape a team together, whether that’s contractors or employees and you need a right hand assistant.

The obvious thing to do is speak to a recruitment agency and find yourself an executive assistant, or EA for short, who’s got experience with C-Suite level support who can hit the ground running, but that’s not always the most cost effective or productive thing you can.

In this episode, I’m going to share why hiring a highly experienced Virtual Assistant instead is going to save you hours of time, save you thousands of pounds, and make you so much more productive than an EA.

I’m walking you through the three key differences between both a VA and a EA and the advantages of a VA in terms of cost for time worked (with exact numbers), tech savviness and so much more.
