As a founder or executive, your time is your most expensive asset. If you value your time at $500/hour, spending 60 minutes clearing spam from your inbox is a massive financial loss for your company.
The Decision Fatigue Problem
It’s not just about time; it’s about energy. Every minor decision you make—scheduling a meeting, choosing a flight, replying to a vendor—drains the battery you need for high-level strategy. This is where an Executive Virtual Assistant (EVA) becomes an investment, not an expense.
Here are the top 5 high-impact tasks you should hand off immediately:
1. Inbox Zero Management
Don’t just let someone "read" your email. Empower them to act. A trained EVA can categorize emails into "Urgent," "Review Later," and "Trash." They can even draft responses for you, so you simply click "Send."
2. Complex Calendar Tetris
Scheduling meetings across three time zones isn’t a skill you need to master. Your EVA handles the back-and-forth negotiation, ensures you have buffer time between calls, and sends the Zoom links.
3. Travel Logistics
Instead of browsing Expedia for hours, tell your EVA: "I need to be in NYC on Tuesday. Prefer Delta, aisle seat." They will present you with three perfectly vetted options. You just pick one.
4. CRM Hygiene
Sales teams hate entering data. An EVA can take your business cards or meeting notes and input them into Salesforce or HubSpot, ensuring your pipeline data is always accurate.
5. Personal Life Admin
The best EVAs protect your personal time too. From scheduling dentist appointments to ordering flowers for an anniversary, they ensure your personal life runs as smoothly as your business.
