To decide
the best way a VA from By the "BYTE" can help to
grow your business, we typically recommend you:
1. Decide
what it is that you want.
Identifying the
exact end result you are hoping to achieve is the first step. Stay
very general and try not to focus on specifics. Would you
like to feel less pressured? Do you want more free time?
Do you procrastinate on things that need to be done? Do you
want to make progress on certain initiatives?
2. Make
a list of tasks that will get you there.
If you want more
free time, what are the most time-consuming tasks, make a
list of these. If you want to stop procrastinating, make
a list of tasks that you frequently put off. If you
are feeling stressed, what are the things that you believe
create stress in your life and make a list of those also.
3. Decide
what to delegate!
Get started by delegating
out to the VA what items you can from the lists that you
made... this ensures that you are sure to get the result
you are hoping for. From there, get into the habit of delegating
to a VA items from your list that don't need to be done by
you personally... you'll be amazed by how much your productivity
is boosted.
4. Contact
us and get started!
We'll ask how you
prefer to correspond, what software you use, what type of
work you will be assigning, and a few other questions intended
to help us assist you better. Your assigned work to us may
be of any variety that is executable via electronic media
(computer, phone, fax, email, Skype etc.) that does not require
our physical presence and will make a valuable contribution
to your business.
It is important
for our Clients to have  confidence
that we can be trusted with sensitive information, such as
financial, personal, or Client information. With our
screening protocol in place Clients can be ensured that any
information that we process from our Clients is treated with
the utmost discretion, whether it is a phone number, email
address etc.
Our systems are
run on a network that is secure which protects our work and
your information.
Because of the current
climate in which hacking and attacks on computers have become
commonplace we do not store any important information on
our computers. Also, by taking advantage of using Mac computers
we increase our security protocol as Windows viruses, spyware,
Trojans or adware can not infect a Mac.
Documents are shredded.
It is important to us that all of our Clients information
is properly secured daily and we shred all documents before
they go into recycling.
We provide our Clients
with a Non-Disclosure Agreement. This ensures the privacy
of our Clients assignments and information. Due to our
Non-Disclosure Agreement you may be assured that no information
will be shared with any unauthorized individuals outside
of our office unless you have given us an assignment that
requests us to do so. Quality control and security are an
important foundation of our service.
Protecting Client
privacy is important. It is important to know that we are
in compliance with the Data Protection Act (DPA). We
have placed encryption on all systems (both Mac and PC) that
contain financial or personal information. No one is
allowed to use a mobile phone or use any personal notebooks
or other such materials while working with or around Client
assignments adding another layer of security. |
