Has anybody had success in using VA's on a regular basis?
I've been looking at ways of putting distance between myself the low value work that I have to do in my business.
I think I should be able to hire a full time VA to do our customer services (eBay, Amazon, email messages) for a third of the cost I'm currently paying for my in house employee. I would then use the extra capital in hiring a part time warehouse packer as it's an area we are struggling with at the moment.
I may even going to look into using a third party fulfilment centre to take over our warehouse logistics at some point in the future. I know a company called Crucial Vacuum who've successfully done this.
I remember @Vigilante saying in one of his posts that he wants to try and remove all in house employees from his business if possible and I must admit I do not want to be tied down with a large warehouse and dealing with staff problems if I can run the same business from anywhere in the world without them.
We already document our processes and procedures which will be a good base for training VAs.
