This economy makes our job even more difficult, since we have to decide how much you want to work and how much you want to make? Some of the assistants are tempted to lower the prices to adjust to the economy and help the businesses, but the approach might compromise the quality. All these things usually become the part of something called a business plan when we are ready with the business model. There are various things we as Virtual assistant providers have to ponder upon when we are trying to provide high quality services at competitive prices:

  • We have to pay the bills in the end; obviously, we cannot keep your prices less than the desk space.
  • We are required to pay for the entire resources like Internet, FAX, phone, so we have to make sure that we cover all the expenses
  • We have to pay for our marketing expenses: The website, advertisements, and the personals charge associated with the same.

At the end of it, the prices you charge are dependent on the kind of services you provide. If you are providing services that demand specialized skills, a certification, then you might consider charging accordingly.

Can I keep my charges low at the beginning and raise my rates as I do well?

That’s a good question; it is always difficult to raise the prices with your existing or the new clients who is referred to you by another business. Well, the price may be raised gradually, over a period of time, by trying to provide more services and covering up the price of other services that we are selling for lower prices.

Stay tuned for some more analysis of this new business that many have been trying to venture into.
