A virtual assistant must communicate with other members of the team in a practical manner. As independent contractors they utilize team structure, and become part of a larger network that can either be based locally or over long distances.
Utilizing instant messaging, emails, skype and web pages to keep the flow of information going back and forth between team members is a good idea. However, omissions can be made and some key people might miss out on important information, or our busy schedules prevent us from sharing information. One of the best ways to improve and streamline communication is by drafting an e-newsletter and distributing it on a regular basis, be it weekly, monthly, or quarterly.
It can be quite the challenge to find enough time to create an e-newsletter, but you don't have to do it alone. The most time efficient and cost effective manner is to break the job up in to smaller pieces; host a brainstorming session; assign segments of work among team members; and then use a virtual assistant to format and distribute the e-newsletter. Delegating the formatting and distributing will free up your time to do the things you do best.
A virtual assistant that specializes in office administration can save time for small business owners by doing tasks that don't generate any money, so they can concentrate on tasks that do bring in money. As an alternative to creating and maintaining a fully staffed office suite, they offer you a reliable, highly skilled, hassle free pay as you go service.
