We’re back again with the myth busting. This time we’re looking at the type of businesses that can benefit from working with an Executive Assistant.
You may believe that EAs are only suited for larger, corporate companies. That is a myth. It overlooks the significant value that EAs can bring to businesses of all sizes.
Both large and small businesses can gain immense value from working with an Executive Assistant, especially if you are well established and want to scale your business.
Even large corporations with their extensive infrastructure and resources, can recognise the advantages of outsourcing non-core business to Executive Assistants. In fact, they have been doing it in some form or another for decades.
Self-sufficiency
While some business owners are highly efficient and manage their time well, they still see the value in additional support, even if they don’t need someone sitting outside their office all day. Virtual Assistants offer the flexibility and autonomy that suites this type of work style.
Part-time support
As mentioned above, many Executives will know they require some kind of support, but they might not need this full-time. Virtual EAs are the perfect solution to this, providing on-demand support tailored to the Executive’s needs without the commitment of a full-time hire.
Frequent travel
Executives in big companies often find themselves travelling frequently for business. This means they require support they can adapt to their ever-changing schedules. The flexibility from a Virtual EA suits this need perfectly.
Plus, their Executive Assistant will be responsible for organising their travel schedule, making booking and ensuring everything runs seamlessly.
Cost effective
All corporations need to be cost conscious, regardless of the size. Hiring an Executive Assistant proves to be a more economical option compared to bringing on full-time support. Companies can save on overhead costs such as benefits, office space and IT equipment without compromising on quality of efficiency.
No hassle
EAs are independent contractors, which removes the burden of tasks such as managing paid holidays, and performance reviews etc. This makes hiring an EA more hassle free and gives a busy Executive more time to focus on what is required of them at C-level.
We hope that helped to debunk the myth that Executive Assistants are only for larger businesses. From self-sufficient CEOs to cost-conscious corporations, businesses of all sizes can benefit from the invaluable support and flexibility that Executive Assistants provide.
This is exactly what we do at The Executives Suite. We work with businesses who need high-level support with the flexibility that an Executive Assistant provides. Our experienced EAs are skilled in managing complex tasks, ensuring all of our clients can focus on their core responsibilities without worrying about day-to-day administrative duties.
