DEEPLY RESTED PODCAST
Delegation Made Simple: Hiring and Managing Your First Virtual Assistant with Sandra Booker
You know you need help in your business. The long hours, the never-ending to-do list, the tasks that only you can do—except… that’s not really true, is it?
You could delegate. You should delegate. But actually hiring someone? That’s another story.
What if they don’t do it right? What if it’s a waste of money? What if managing them just adds more work to your plate?
I hear you. I’ve been there. And that’s exactly why I invited Online Business Manager Sandra Booker onto the podcast today.
She’s breaking down her four-step process to help you hire and delegate with confidence—so you can finally get the support you need without the stress and second-guessing.
In this episode, Sandra will share:
- How to know when it’s time to hire an assistant
- 3 specific steps to make sure your VA gets the job done right (and on time!)
- Where to find your next great assistant
We’re also diving into the tough stuff—how to set clear expectations and, gulp, how to know when it’s time to let someone go. (Not fun, but necessary!).
Honestly? I wish I’d had this conversation with Sandra before I started hiring support staff. It would’ve saved me a lot of money—and several dozen migraines.
Learning how to hire support is a necessary ingredient if you want to be a deeply rested entrepreneur. Sandra’s advice in this episode will help you do it with ease.
