There are three reasons that coworking spaces should think about using virtual assistants:
1. To grow your own coworking business or to make your own business more sustainable without adding another full time team member.
2. To help your members do the same...and to help them to be more successful so that they can afford to continue to be members.
3. To consider offering a VA service to your members as an additional revenue stream.
Molly Rose Speed is the founder of Virtual Assistant Management, a Training and Placement company for Virtual Assistants.
