Every year on May 17th, we celebrate International Virtual Assistant Day, a special occasion dedicated to recognizing the invaluable contributions of virtual assistants to the global business landscape. Established in 2006 by the Alliance for Virtual Businesses, this day serves to highlight the dedication, skill, and essential support that virtual assistants provide, ensuring that businesses, especially small and self-employed ventures, thrive in an increasingly digital world. Virtual assistants not only manage day-to-day tasks and complex projects from afar but also bring strategic organization to businesses, helping to clear the clutter and focus on growth. Today, we recognize their tireless efforts and the significant impact they have in transforming businesses into more efficient, productive entities. ๐๐

Collaboration with This Is Me ๐ค๐ก

As well as having my own fabulous clients, I also work as a freelance virtual assistant for “This is Me” a supported employment agency dedicated to ensuring that individuals with disabilities, chronic illnesses, or mental health conditions can support themselves through employment, whether as employees or as self-employed entrepreneurs. They simplify the process by leveraging the Access to Work scheme from the DWP, which has been instrumental in helping thousands of people gain employment every year. “This is Me” facilitates this by handling the paperwork and communication, ensuring that individuals can focus on their work or business with the right support in place.
On International Virtual Assistant Day, let us all take a moment to appreciate the quiet dedication of virtual assistants everywhere. Whether streamlining operations, managing communications, or supporting unique needs through organisations like “This Is Me,” virtual assistants are the backbone of many enterprises, allowing creativity and innovation to flourish by ensuring the nuts and bolts of business management are well cared for. ๐ฉโ๐ป๐
