More time to close jobs and run the business.

So I was doing a lot of the admin and sales stuff on my own. But then started noticing the workload was starting to pile up. And then I started realizing I needed help to handle all the inbound lead flow that we were getting. Just answering questions from leads, kind of walking them through the process of how we work, that took a lot of time. As I was looking for an administrative assistant here in the United States, I realized the cost was just a little too high to try to justify hiring someone here. That's ultimately why I decided to go offshore because I knew it was going to be cost efficient, but as well as I knew I wasn't going to get a huge drop of quality. So I'm pretty active on X, and I believe his name's DJ. Since I was following him for a while, I agreed with a lot of the things that he was tweeting. And so I booked the call, and then from there they made the process very smooth, they made it really easy to understand, and a lot of trust was built there. And that's ultimately why I chose Cherry. So what she does is answer the phones. We have a lot of inbound leads that come in. But then once we do a bit of prospecting, kind of walk through the lead through how our services work, if still seems like a fit, then she will go ahead and create the estimates, build out the mock-ups, take measurements of their property, create the quote, and then that's when I step in and hop on a call with that lead to deliver that quote. Now I can focus a lot more of my time on those higher impact tasks in the business with closing the jobs, managing employees, and just overall strategy. I have a ton of time back on my hands, and I'm using it wisely. I absolutely recommend Cherry Assistant. I didn't want to deal with trying to go out and find my own, nor did I want to manage payroll and all the different compliances that are involved with that. So Cherry is a perfect match for somebody who is looking for offshore talent, but also doesn't want to deal with all the added admin work that comes with managing the VA. For my industry, it's very important that we move the lead or the prospect across the sales funnel as quickly as possible. And so the sooner that we can move these prospects across the sales pipeline, then the higher the chances are that we close more jobs and get more work, which is a win-win for everybody.
