What is a Virtual Assistant?
Definition of a Virtual Assistant.
An independent contractor who provides administrative services to clients while operating outside of the client’s office. A Virtual Assistant usually works from their own fully equipped office, but they are able to access the necessary planning documents, such audio recordings, scanned notes and event specifications remotely.
Virtual Assistants are usually freelance workers who focus on the tasks that would normally be taken care of by a Secretary, PA or Administrator.
With many ways to pay, this service can be used by anyone in need of a little extra help.
