How Does A Virtual Assistant Help Home Builders?
We have worked with many Home Builder Businesses from one-off builds to a complex of houses. We understand that one of the highest priorities is project management. Saint VA can work with your current systems including the most popular software's such as Builder Trend, Fonn, ProCore etc or even if you have a system set up on Gsheets/Excel we can support you there as well!
What Tasks Should I Be Looking To Give To a SaintVA?
The more you give to your SaintVA the more you can focus on the business side of things. As a general rule, we say any tasks that are repeatable or you feel like you should not being these are tasks we look to take off your hands.
To name a few tasks we can help with:
- Email management
- Diary Management
- Project Management
- Research
- Ordering of Materials etc
We have developed a SaintVA Service Guide which covers our most common tasks and the benefits you receive from being with Saint Construction Support
What Software Can A Virtual Assistant Work With?
Our VA’s all undergo extensive training including on the top construction software. The Home Building Trade is quite unique and the common software's such as SimPro, Tradify, Commusoft etc do not provide the right level of management of projects. Software like Builder Trend, CoConstruct, Fonn or ProCore for example can provide the level of management you need however can be quite costly. We are quick learners so if do happen to use a software that one of VA’s have not used before we will undergo the necessary training (in our time) in order to provide the best possible service to your business.
Case Study
We worked with a home builder who had no real control over the admin of his business. The admin was currently being done by his wife who wanted to step back from the business and that’s when it came apparent that he had no idea where to start.
There were no systems in place and they were still working on paper which makes the tasks for us that every bit harder as we are a virtual company. By the first month, we had implemented our basic systems, all task management was held on the VA Dashboard, basic project management using Gsheets was in place for the first time for the business and the business started entering the cloud space with Google Drive.
We understand that building houses, the projects could be going on for a couple of years so the importance of getting a software in place to reduce manual entry, eliminate the possibility of errors and increase automation was a high priority.
Move forward 12 months, the company has tripled its turnover, fully on the cloud (so no more paper!) and has achieved their main goal which we asked at the start which was to finish work at 5:30 to spend more time with the kids.
Why is Saint VA right for your business?
SaintVA only work with companies in the construction industry and with over 35 years of experience, we have pretty much-seen everything there is to see. We have supported businesses from £500k reach £5 million+ by implementing systems for the long term success of the business.
We help business owners focus onto focusing on their work and growing their business. We are there to provide cost-effective support in the running the business and completing the tasks they should not be doing. We provide business owners with daily business updates so they are still fully in control of their business and can make important decisions on the go.
