A success principle

Administrative tasks support your over-all operations of your business. Keeping track of your finances (bookkeeping) makes you aware of the financial condition of your business. Managing your calendar helps you to use your time more efficiently. Online marketing methods are increasingly important methods to promote your business. Available tools that are available to help you manage your business include online services (websites) that include bookkeeping, time management, calendar management, email management.

A quality, powerful computer can handle software (such as an office suite) and a secure Internet service are essential. To determine what is right for your business, you can search Google and watch training videos on YouTube.

Our world is getting more complex; therefore, it takes more time and effort to learn how to handle administrative tasks by yourself. The farther you get behind, the longer it will take you to catch up. Hiring experts to handle these tasks makes your life more simple and less stressful. Most likely when you started your business, you contacted a lawyer and an accountant. If your business uses a vehicle, you reach out to a local mechanic. Now that we live in a free-lance (gig) economy, there are more options available than hiring more staff. You can hire as-needed basis freelance bookkeepers, virtual administrators, online and social media marketers. These folks will become an important part of your team. Most likely your will be better off when you delegate tasks instead of doing it yourself.


The bottom line is that you are better off by hiring experts to handle many of your business’s tasks instead of doing it yourself. It takes a lot of time to train yourself to handle important administrative tasks. We live in a free-lance economy which enables you to hire on a contract basis, instead of hiring staff (which come with additional expenses.) You can hire social-media/online marketers. You can hire bookkeepers and virtual administrators instead of learning all these skills. The principle of delegation makes your business life less stressful and gives you more time to focus on what you do best.
