  • – Respond quickly to customer queries (no more lost sales from delays).
  • – Manage your social channels with seasonal offers and campaigns.
  • – Organise and schedule holiday promotions so you can focus on strategy.

Get the support you need now to cruise through the busy season and keep your business ahead of the curve.

2. October is Ideal for Forward Planning

October’s a great time to reflect on the year so far and plan ahead. By hiring a VA now, you can delegate daily tasks and focus on growing your business. Your Virtual Assistant (VA) can assist with:

  • – Market research.
  • – Competitor analysis.
  • – Managing daily workflows.

October’s quieter, so it’s the ideal time to get a head start on the next year.

3. Take Advantage of End-of-Year Financial Benefits

Hiring a Virtual Assistant (VA) in October can be financially smart. According to the Australian Taxation Office (ATO),  payments made to agencies for contracted services, like Virtual Assistant support, are tax-deductible, helping to reduce your taxable income. Plus, with the Small Business Technology Investment Boost, businesses can claim an additional 20% tax deduction on tech investments, including software your Virtual Assistant (VA) uses.

Outsourcing to a Filipino Virtual Assistant (VA) stretches your budget further, delivering excellent quality without the higher costs of hiring locally.

Virtual Assistants (VAs) are flexible, allowing you to scale up or down depending on your needs, without the overheads.
