Costs incurred vs. Costs saved

The cost of hiring two regular staff is about 50% more expensive than employing a virtual assistant for the same employee (assuming average salary levels). While this may seem like an obvious calculation, it’s not as simple to handle and there are some additional costs that will be incurred when using a virtual assistant. These include:

  1. recruiting new hires at your agency.
  2. performance management packages for your staff and new hires, which is critical to retain them over time (i.e., no employee will stick around forever).
  3. training employees on the outsourced admin’s duties. It takes time to make employees familiar with the responsibilities of your outsourced admin.

Why hire a virtual assistant for your Google Ads?

As opposed to hiring someone to work directly for you, an outsourced virtual assistant works from the comfort of their own home office. Using a Virtual Assistant service, they are able to have access to their team’s tools and employee benefits while reporting to you full-time as their supervisor. This means you’ll see much higher quality work delivered and possibly reduced costs due to lower staff costs. This allows your company or agency brand to be maintained and more easily scaled, for a fraction of typical overhead costs.

What it takes to become a Google certified ad manager

One-time investment or recurrent costs?

The first thing to consider is whether this type of investment will pay off as you scale your business. The answer depends on your goals for your company, the level of financial resources you can dedicate to ad management, and the type of work that is already being done for clients.

For larger businesses, Google-certified ad managers are a must-have, but they can be costly. For small businesses or agencies with limited resources, this price tag is too high. On the other hand, hiring a full-time virtual assistant at MyOutDesk. is significantly less expensive than hiring two full-time employees at your company or agency and it also offers you 100% of the skills and experiences Google Ad Management has to offer without any long-term commitment.

Steps to train your marketing assistant to become a google ads manager:

Step 1: Select the number of reports you’d like the outsourced virtual assistant to prepare for you each week and confirm these with your stakeholders.

Step 2: Once the reports are prepared, a virtual assistant can send them directly to you or your stakeholder’s email inbox.

Step 3: Allowing the new hire to learn on their own (while taking certification courses) is also an option if they prefer it. You can either work with them each week or schedule regular meetings with them to keep things running smoothly.

Step 4: The virtual assistant can also adjust their schedule to help accommodate your needs and the needs of your client. They’ll prepare all of the reports for you so that you’re not spending your time doing administrative tasks for the outsourced admin.

Step 5: A virtual assistant will be able to efficiently respond to all of your client’s questions in a timely manner without ever being involved in any front-end ad management tasks for you.
