A Personal Assistant For A Fraction Of The Price
April 15th, 2008 | by Bloddard |At one time or another, we all wished we had someone to help us with those small tasks that while small and simple manage to be enormous obstacles. This person is known as a personal assistant, unfortunately with a salary averaging US$ 36,000.00 per year and skyrocketing cost of living, this is a treat that most cannot afford.
I read an article once that talked about getting the benefits of a personal assistant without actually having to hire one. Among other things, they usually do dry cleaning and post office runs, as well as lunch pick ups. In many cases, however, these businesses both provide you a core service and act as the personal assistant. Some Dry Cleaners/Laundromats pick up and deliver clothing as well as provide wash and fold services; one can arrange for the post office to pick up packages for shipping; lunch can brought right to our homes and work areas and groceries can be dropped off at our doorstep, all for a small fraction of the cost of a personal assistant. With premeditated strategic plans, these can help us live a less hectic and more fruitful as well as productive life.
I understand that not everyone goes the extra mile for their costumers and that some of us might not live in a place that can benefit from these services, but being the business people that we are (or want to be), I think we can try to do something about it and while there, maybe capitalize on the opportunity.
