As the weather gets better and your clients take vacations, you may be thinking about taking a vacation also. One of the great things about being a virtual assistant though is that if you take stock of all your clients and their typical needs you may find you don’t need to wait until they take a vacation to have a relocation vacation.  Of course when you’re working you can plan local vacations as it were into your days and weeks but don’t forget since your business is, by definition, virtual, you may be able to plan in time away during the regular year.

What do you really need to take some time off and be of service to your clients? If your current work entails making reservations, doing research, contacting venues etc., you may be able to do these just as well from a hotel or suite that gets you out of town. It will also let you recharge your batteries before any big events you need to be involved in.

If you don’t have school age children at home, take time every month or so to reassess where you really need to be and if you can take a little working vacation on a regular basis.
