I’ve been noticing how much time small business owners waste on repetitive tasks like scheduling, email responses, or data entry. That’s where Virtual Assistant Services come into play. But here’s the question: what’s the tipping point when it makes sense to hire one? Is it about cost, time saved, or simply reducing stress?
Companies like PiliSource are well known for providing
virtual assistant services assistants who are trained in multiple business functions. Do you think it’s better to hire one generalist VA who can juggle different tasks, or a specialist who focuses only on a single area like bookkeeping or customer service? Which would bring the most value to your team?
And what about cultural fit, do you prefer working with someone in your time zone, or are you comfortable adjusting schedules to access global talent? If you had to choose between affordability and advanced skills, which would you prioritize? Has anyone here ever scaled from one VA to a full team, and if so, how did you handle communication and workflow management?
