5 Tasks You Should Be Delegating To Your Virtual Assistant c) Copyright 2005, Tracey Lawton www.traceylawton.com -------------------------------

It’s only November, far too early to be thinking about Christmas, right? Wrong! If you start planning now you can avoid all the hassle and stress that comes with this time of year. You may already be feeling the extra pressure. Perhaps your calendar is starting to fill up already with Christmas get-togethers.

Here are 5 tasks that you SHOULD be delegating to your Virtual Assistant to ensure that you have as stress-free a holiday season as possible.

#1 Designing custom holiday promotions Need to send Christmas cards to your clients? Or maybe you have a special holiday promotion? I can help you here by designing custom Christmas cards, calendars, flyers, postcards, brochures, or any other promotional item.

#2 Organising and maintaining your mailing list Is your mailing list all together in one place? Or is it on bits of paper and business cards that you've collected over this past year? Do you even have a mailing list? I can help you here by setting up and maintaining a mailing list for you. It doesn't even have to be just for the holiday period, I can maintain your list all year round so that you can send regular mailings and promotions to your clients.

#3 Sending out your holiday promotions So, now you have your custom-designed promotions, and your up-to-date mailing list, but do you have the time to send out your holiday promotions? I can help you here by sending out your holiday cards and promotions for you. Once you have your promotional literature and mailing list organised, then I can save you time by sending them out on your behalf - via email or post.

#4 Planning your Holiday Event Thinking of hosting a seasonal seminar or workshop? Then let me help you organise and plan that event for you--from sending out the invitations to collating the RSVPs, producing the literature, or booking the venue.

#5 Helping you plan your New Year marketing campaigns If you're already thinking past Christmas and into the New Year, then let me assist you by helping you to organise your New Year marketing campaigns. Think of the relief you'll feel at knowing that your New Year marketing campaigns have been organised BEFORE Christmas!
