Isn hiring a Virtual Assistant more expensive than hiring an employee?
At first glance, you might think a VA’s hourly rate is more expensive, but when you factor in the cost of hiring an employee – payroll and employer taxes, benefits administration, office space and equipment, and the additional worker’s compensation and liability insurance costs – on top of the salary or hourly wage – you will find that a working with a VA may actually save you money. VA’s work from their own home offices, own their own equipment, pay their own taxes, and provide their own benefits. You are not responsible for any of these expenses. And the best part – you only pay for the actual time they spend working for you. Your VA’s time is 100% productive time – you don’t pay for a single second of downtime or breaks.
