Tips for a Personal Assistant – Ideas for Summer

Summer is quickly approaching and the kids are almost out of school.(At least here). While most people are getting geared up for some relaxing weekends, a Personal Assistant should be preparing for one of the busiest times of the year.  When the kids are home, working parents have less time to get things done, that’s the perfect time for a Personal Assistant to step in and help.

Here are 6 ideas for boosting your business during Summer

• Vacation Planning – Help your client plan the perfect weekend get away, with or without the kids.
• Vacation Errands – Right before the vacation, busy families have a million things to get done. Make sure nothing slips through the cracks by taking care of their errands or helping out.
• House Sitting – When the clients are away… watch their house.
• Errands, Errands, Errands – With the price of gas going up, families are going to be looking for alternative to driving all around town. You can make the best of it by knocking out several clients errands at once. Make sure you adjust your prices for the price of gas increase.
• Party Planning – What’s summer without a Bar-b-que? Put together the event for your client.
• Pack up for winter – If your clients are like me, I store my winter clothes and get out the summer clothes about this time, but I hate doing it. Helping your client store their Winter clothes and getting ready for summer is a something they would be greatful for.

Enjoy your Summer and stay busy!
