What is a VPA and what are the benefits for me?
VPA stands for “Virtual Personal Assistant”. VPAs support their clients by providing secretarial, concierge, office helper and personal assistant services on demand on a long-term basis for business and private tasks that are carried out on the PC, phone or online.
So, your VPA will always be the same person at my-vpa. Your assistant will get to know the way you work and the kind of tasks you deal with. All this makes for an effective collaboration. Your VPA is also highly trained and speaks your language. This enables you to delegate tasks efficiently. The best thing about my-vpa is that your VPA is available on demand via the my-vpa app. Whenever you need an extra pair of hands, you can quickly outsource a task to your VPA using the my-vpa app.
How do I delegate a task to my VPA?
Thanks to the my-vpa app, you can delegate tasks in an easy and structured manner using voice messages, text chat and documents. You also specify a time budget and a deadline. Done! The task will now appear in your task list. If you so wish, you can also create projects to which you can assign tasks. You always decide what will be worked on and for how long. If you’d prefer, you can also assign a task in a personal meeting. → View demo

Okanda.com was founded in 2014 as a platform for booking meeting rooms in hotels. A portfolio of approx. 2000 meeting rooms that can be booked in real time was put together. These data are stored and maintained in a CRM system along with the booking data. The virtual my-vpa CRM service supported Okanda AG in the following areas:
-
Onboarding for meeting rooms, including text creation and image editing
-
Enrichment of client data for the location partner
-
Subject-based mailshots for clients
-
Creation of personalised client profiles for marketing measures
VPAs work on the Okanda.com cloud management platform directly and are connected to the Okanda AG teams via a shared folder structure.
The great thing about my-vpa’s virtual CRM service is that it’s so scalable. Even when the booking and location volumes on our platform increase, we’ve been able to minimise the time it takes to collect data. Our personal assistant took the initiative to delegate tasks to other VPAs to distribute the workload.
