Key insights

  • Decisions should be based on patterns and data, not just gut feelings. Combining a VA's data preparation with a host's understanding of their property creates a powerful approach to smart business decisions.

Mistakes to avoid

  • Failing to provide clear training, onboarding, and defined boundaries for a VA can lead to frustration, missed tasks, and relationship failure, as they cannot be expected to train themselves or fix existing chaos.
