Join Pow.wow for a chat with Maren Kate Donovan – Founder of the virtual assistant company, Zirtual, a start-up geared at helping entrepreneurs delegate more and do busy work less.

 

The power of having a second self.

 

  • Harnessing the power of delegation: why delegate, how to delegate, who to delegate to.
  • The beauty of having a dedicated, PA: relationships matter, someone to know your preferences/needs
  • How highly-specialized services (like TaskRabbit, Exec) are making it seamless to go completely “virtual”
  • 80/20 principle and how it relates to delegation: how to find the 20% of your time that contributes to 80% of your productivity, maximizing that 20% by delegating the rest.
  • How to find a second-self: offshore versus US-based, price ranges, dedicated versus on-demand
  • Best practices: tools, tricks and tips on how to best use your own personal assistant
