“You have to make sure that you set up your team for success.”

Kristy Yoder kicks off the episode by emphasizing the importance of trust and taking calculated risks when hiring a virtual assistant. Drawing from her own experiences, she highlights the need to invest time in building a strong relationship with VAs. Lexxie adds further value by stressing the importance of assessing team members’ strengths, providing clear instructions, and setting appropriate expectations, accompanied by regular check-ins. Regine offers a valuable perspective, reminding listeners that clients might expect fast task completion due to their own expertise but should allow VAs some learning and adjustment time.
Lexxie and Regine both underscore the significance of setting clear objectives and maintaining open communication, noting that these factors are crucial for successful task delegation. Miguel shares his observations on common pitfalls, like micromanaging and lack of clarity from clients, reiterating the need for trust to prevent inefficiencies and encourage business growth.
