How Detailed Do Your SOPs Need To Be For Clients

Description

Today we are talking about something that every virtual assistant needs… but very few actually take the time to build properly.

Standard Operating Procedures - better known as SOPs.

Okay so maybe it's not entirely true about very few building them properly.

But there are a LOT of VAs that I have talked to that do not have anything documented. If that's you, then I'm glad you're here listening in today.

How detailed does an SOP need to be when it's for something you specialize in?

This question comes up all the time in my coaching calls, in my mastermind group, and in conversations with newer VAs who feel pressure to write SOPs that are either way too complicated or not detailed enough.

So today I'm going to walk you through what your SOPs should include, how to know the right level of detail, and how your SOPs actually make you more confident and more valuable to your clients.

SOPs don't just help you deliver great work. They help you feel more confident about the work you're doing, and they help clients feel more confident in hiring you.

If you want to get some help creating SOPs for your VA business, or you want templates you can start with right away, reach out to me anytime.

I'd love to help you get some standards into your VA business so you can work more efficiently, get more done, and love your VA business again.

That's all I've got for you this week  - thanks for tuning in to this episode of The Ridiculously Good VA Show. I'll see you next time!
