International Virtual Assistants Day 2023 is on May 19. This day recognizes the hard work and value that VAs bring to businesses and individuals around the world.

Virtual Assistants Help Streamline Your Business

Most virtual assistants work on a freelance basis and deliver administrative, managerial, and personal assistance to their clients and business owners who need a help but do not necessarily need to hire an in-house office-based employee, as mentioned by Days of the Year.

Virtual assistants provide an array of services for their clients using technology. This includes things like managing emails, scheduling appointments, conducting research, producing documents, managing social media, among other. VAs allow business owners and individuals to outsource tasks so they can focus on other important priorities, like streamlining their business process and growing their revenue.

While virtual assistants are an increasing part of the modern workforce, they often go unrecognized for the work they do behind the scenes. International Virtual Assistant Day aims to bring attention to the profession and highlight the role virtual assistants play in making businesses more productive and efficient.

With the growth of remote and digital work, virtual assistants are likely to remain an important part of the business world. International Virtual Assistant Day serves as an opportunity to acknowledge their contributions and celebrate the profession.
