<\/div>\n
Having monthly goals and milestones is a great way to keep on track with your virtual assistant. It helps your business propel forward and it gives your virtual assistant a way to track how they can help your business accomplish its goals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
You\u2019ve probably heard of the famous SMART goals criteria, which states that goals should be: <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Specific (simple, sensible, significant). You want your goal to be clear and straightforward. It should dictate exactly what you want to accomplish, who you need to help you accomplish that goal, and how you\u2019re going to get it done. <\/li>
Measurable (meaningful, motivating). Measuring the progress of your goal shows that your team is on the right track and moving forward. You should have a way to figure out if the goal has been achieved. <\/li>
Achievable (agreed, attainable). Great goals are realistic. Consider if there are any factors holding you back from achieving the goal. For example, are you outsourcing part of this goal to someone who doesn\u2019t have the skillset? Are you financially held back from moving forward? Ensure that you are setting goals that are not only realistic but physically possible for your business.<\/li>
Relevant (reasonable, realistic and resourced, results-based). In a time where every guru has a new marketing strategy or technique, you might be bombarded with ideas that have nothing to do with the vision of your business. Make sure the goal your team is working towards is something sustainable and relevant to your business. It would be a shame to spend so many resources working towards a goal that ends up being irrelevant to your long-term success.<\/li>
Time-bound (time-based, time-limited, time\/cost limited, timely, time-sensitive). Your goals should run with deadlines. Deadlines are not only crucial for setting a date where your goal should be met, but they also help set boundaries for your team. Your team members are human beings who are juggling other tasks. Letting them know your deadlines helps your virtual assistants rearrange their schedules to meet your needs.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n
