Episode notes
You spend so much time helping clients run their businesses - but what about yours? In this episode, I’ll share why getting support in your own business is essential and how to start outsourcing with confidence.
As a VA, you constantly advise your clients on the benefits of outsourcing, but are you applying that same advice to your own business? If you’re feeling overwhelmed, stretched thin, or struggling to focus on growth, it might be time to bring in support.
In this episode, I break down why getting help isn’t a luxury - it’s a smart business decision. I’ll guide you through how to track your time, identify tasks to delegate, and start small with outsourcing. From bookkeeping and social media to operations and recruitment, I’ll share practical steps to help you decide where to begin and how to build a support system that grows with your business.
Key Takeaways:
- Track your time and identify tasks that drain your energy or distract you from business growth.
- Start small - bookkeeping, social media, or admin tasks are great first areas to outsource.
- Build relationships with potential support early so you're ready when the time comes to delegate.
This week, track your time and pinpoint one task you could outsource. Then start exploring your options - ask for recommendations, reach out to your network, and take the first step towards scaling your business. Get our Free mini course on Creating Solid Business Foundations.
