You’re in luck: hiring a personal assistant—who only works between 10 and 15 hours a week, **totaling only a few hundred dollars** in cost per month—will allow you to **get back to doing what you do best.** ### Start With Email Let’s face it: typing out answers to emails is a huge time-waster. Your UPbook business needs your help in other areas, so **stop wasting precious hours answering hundreds of emails.** It’s your assistant’s job to action all of your emails for you—the goal is **for you to never have to write an email again.** ### Record Your Directions The next step is to provide voice directions to your personal assistant. Run through your email and **record a video or voice memo indicating how to respond to each of your emails.** Remember: talking is faster than typing! This is **the true crux of the time savings** for you and, ultimately, your UPbook business. ### Make It A Habit **Make this process a daily habit**—that way, you’ll continue to save time every day. Imagine the extra hours you’ll have in an entire month… **there’s no telling where your UPbook business will be able to go next!** Spend 10 or 15 minutes at the start of every workday recording your video or voice memo. Set a goal for yourself: for example, make it a habit to **get your video to your assistant by 10:30 a.m. every day.** Then, your assistant can action all of the emails by noon. That lets you get back to running your UPbook business! ### Put It Into Action Per your voice recording or video, **your assistant** **takes care of everything.** They’ll respond to inquiries, set your appointments, pay your UPbook business’s bills, schedule your travel, etc. Your assistant’s help **can even cross from professional zones to personal ones, if you desire.** You won’t know your assistant personally—they’re simply your employee—so **the particular areas that they address are completely up to you.** Your UPbook business **can’t run without you.** In fact, it will benefit from your undivided attention. That’s why it’s so important to **stop wasting time on things that don’t matter.** Hiring a personal assistant is the quickest way to add extra hours to every day and let you get back.
