Running a VA Business: Packaging Your Services
Saturday, February 2nd, 2008When you focus on starting and running a virtual business, it’s important to know what you have to offer. In part, that means taking a look at what your experience has been, but it’s also about looking at your prospective clients and knowing which services they may be looking for (even if they are services that your clients may not know that they need).
In other words, when you’re going to be running a VA business, you may want to consider offering different “packages” of services – here are a couple of options to consider:
- Accounting and Bookkeeping Services If helping to keep the books is a service that you will offer as part of your virtual assistance business, you’ll want to consider packaging services like creating invoices and sending payment reminders that go together.
- Client Management Services If you are going to offer services to help your clients organize their client database, consider grouping them some: offer a package that enters their information into a database and lets you get in touch with those leads and customers whose information may be missing.
In other words, you’ll find that by organizing your services into packages, you’ll be able to run a more efficient VA business by grouping services together.
