Learn Why All Work At Home Moms Need a Virtual Assistant
Does this sound like your life? 5:00 pm, the phone rings. You run across the room carrying a hungry baby, yelling to your third grader in the other room that if he subtracts 8 from 10 he will have the answer he has been huffing about for the last 20 minutes. With a heavy sigh, you muster up all the niceness you can and say "Hello". It’s the contractor calling to confirm that he will be there tomorrow morning to fix your bathroom floor. Hurriedly, you thank him and hang up.
Just as you head to the kitchen with a now screaming baby, the phone rings again. It’s hubby calling to ask what’s for dinner. DINNER? OH NO! You knew there was something you forgot to do this morning. You cut the conversation short - since you started your business, the two of you never have time for a real conversation anymore.
Now you run to the kitchen, pull the frozen pizza from the freezer, and preheat the oven on your way to make a bottle. At the same time, telling your eldest child that it’s bath time and reminding him to put his dirty clothes in the hamper when he’s through.
Finally, you’ve made the bottle, which pleases the little one to no end. Just as you start to breathe a sigh of relief, you hear a noise resembling a dolphin splashing in the ocean coming from down the hall. Visualizing water all over the floor, you add yet another task to your list of things to do.
Hubby calls again. He’s on his way home.
What? It can’t be 7 o’clock already! You still have to give the baby a bath, clean up the bathroom from "Flipper", pack lunches, wash dishes, and the list goes on!?
As you head to the bathroom, you see your "To Do" list sitting on your desk. The list is a mile long and you only managed to cross two things off today. Your newsletter, scheduled to go out today, is still in draft form; a client called to say the deadline for the project you are working on has to be moved up, and you haven’t completed the proposal for a potential new client yet.
Where did the time go? Exhausted and grumpy, you remember it’s only Monday. You have to get up tomorrow and do it all over again!
Sound familiar? Wasn’t the whole reason you decided to work from home, so that you could spend more QUALITY time with your family? So that you could make healthy dinners, be there to help with math homework, spend time with your hubby on the weekends, just to name a few?
All too often, work at home moms get so caught up in every day life that their business suffers or vice versa. With a Virtual Assistant to help with your business tasks you CAN focus on the most important things in life: family, home, and happiness!
Wouldn’t you rather hear your children to tell the story of how Mom was always there to lend a helping hand or give a hug just when it was needed most instead of "Mom and the Burnt Pizza"?
We’ve all experienced "Burnt Pizza Night".
