The other day, my friend told me that he is not in favor of outsourcing to virtual assistants as he had a bad experience a few years back. The comment made me a little offended because I have been noticing this for years that virtual assistant company is not getting enough respect. Do you stop using cell phones if the cell phone company lets you down? Definitely, a NO!!
For all those with above experiences, I would request them to please do not leave the industry with just one bad experience. Other tons of companies are waiting for you to support in your business. And for more support, here are some tips which can help you to make best out of your next outsourcing company.

• A virtual professional is an independent contractor so does not treat him like your other employees. Give him the respect and admiration he deserves. The performance and work quality will improve automatically.
• As VAs work from remote offices, effective communications become an important part in deciding their performance. Be clear in your ideas, say what you actually mean and mean for what you say.
Remember one thing, they are human beings and mistakes are natural. Do not let your business suffer for this. Understand them and add value to your business.
