Have you booked holiday cover?

Rest and relax knowing that your business is in safe hands

Holiday season is here! Are you understaffed during the summer? ExecutiveVA can provide holiday cover so you can switch off and recharge. Have you booked yours?

Summer has arrived, the sun is shining, and we are all looking forward to taking our holidays. The day dream of sun-soaked days spent by the pool combined with sightseeing and new adventures and relaxing strolls by the beach and dips in the sea will soon be a reality. But who holds the fort at work?

The Guardian survey* reported that 76% of small business owners and entrepreneurs forego holidays to keep their business running smoothly. Small Business** also found that more than half of UK small business leaders have five or less days holiday a year and a fifth didn't have a single day off!

When self-employed, it can be difficult to switch off and get away from the office and take time off from a business that relies on you. And with a small business it can feel like most of your workforce has departed on their holiday over the summer.

Rest and relaxation is essential to long-term mental and physical health and by outsourcing to a Virtual Assistant to cover those important tasks gives you the break you need and the continuation to provide a full service to your clients whilst you are away. We support you to manage your team and business so productivity remains high and projects are completed. We provide skilled help and have the knowledge and expertise to keep your business wheels in motion.

During holiday cover, ExecutiveVA can help with the urgent admin that can’t wait until you get back, step in to support your team when short staffed and you can even hand over the tasks that have been sitting on your to-do list for ages, which we can complete for your return!

Take that holiday. Rest and relax and leave your business in safe hands.
