Getting Organized




Some of the top resolutions for most people for the New Year are to make/save money, manage stress, and to get organized.  Were any of these on your list of resolutions?  One of the biggest reasons why entrepreneurs struggle to grow their business is because they are trying to do everything in their business.


  They ARE the business!!!


Have you considered Outsourcing instead of trying to do it ALL yourself?
It’s just plain smart to leverage your time rather than try to do it all yourself. Outsourcing to a virtual assistant can help you ‘buy more time’ in your work day.  It will help to relieve stress and allow you to start working ON your business, instead of being trapped, working IN your business. 
There are all types of virtual assistant services available that can help with organizing your business depending on your needs.   

Here are a few of the services that PLE offers:

· - Set-up Social Media Accounts (Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, Youtube, Google+)
·       - Creating custom banners for Social Media accounts
        - Following up with clients/customers ( sending reminder emails)
        - Sending greeting cards, i.e. thank you, birthday, anniversary, reminder, etc.
        - Database building, editing, (i.e. updating email/contact lists on CRM, Constant Contact, SendOutCards accounts, etc.)
        - Research on topics/content for blog posts, newsletters, websites, etc. 
        - Research to find vendors for a project, service, event, etc.
        - Creating reports (reports on weekly tasks, deliverables, sales, spreadsheets, etc.)
        - Creating forms, flyers, brochures, etc.
        - Preparing Slideshows, videos, (PowerPoint presentations)
        - Managing and updating social media accounts

        -  Setting up, managing, Blog
        - Publishing Blog posts (content provided)
        - Filter and replying to comments on blog
        - Creating website, making edits, and maintaining 

        What's causing you stress and taking up your time?  Outsourcing the work you don't like to
do, don't have time to do, or just don't want to do, can give you back the time you need to focus on your business and what you do best.  Hiring a VA can help get you organized and keep you on track to meet your goals and resolutions you've set for the New Year.

Why Email Marketing?

Because personal one-to-one communication with your customers that's targeted and inspires conversions is hard to beat.

  •  It's more personal than social media
  • 66% of online consumers check their email account multiple times per day, with 13% of online consumers actually checking their email hourly or more frequently
  • Makes it quick and easy to follow up, send newsletters, special offers, etc. 
  • Email provides you the most direct line of communication for conversion to sales
  • It's also amazingly cost-effective
  • Good email content deepens your relationship with your audience, builds loyalty, & referrals
  • Email inspires action - conversion rate for email was 3.19 percent, compared to 1.95 percent for search, and just .71 percent for social media

Keep in mind that people buy when they have a perceived need or want.  By continuously keeping in touch, you and your business will be 'Top of Mind' when they need your products or services or perhaps refer you to someone.
