A month ago, I wrote a Zirtual review outlining everything my virtual assistant Josiah helped me out with.
I wanted to do it again so the outsourcing curious can see the type of tasks a Zirtual assistant can do for you:
- Coordinate a call (2)
- Download all files from a membership site I belong to and put them in a dropbox folder so I can put them on my phone
- Add members to my google group HackingNYC (2)
- Make restaurant reservations (3)
- Add something to my calendar (1)
- Found out when I get my Zirtual credits applied and let me know the policy on them
- Bottle service inquiry for my friend that’s getting deployed to Afghanistan who visited NYC. Love you Yorck!
- Go through all my Skillshare classes and export all the emails of past students into CSVs so I can email these people about new online classes
- Call the Chinese Consulate and find out the best way to get my paperwork taken care before my trip
- Call Wells Fargo and confirm the reimbursement policy on my use of non-bank ATMs
- Find 10 most popular Google+ Communities on Online Marketing, Internet Marketing, and Blogging
- Call Horizon Blue Cross and see if they cover me for insurance abroad (More China trip nonsense)
- Upload 4 videos I put into a dropbox folder onto Youtube
- Figure out the easiest way for me to order checks for a new bank account I opened
- Remove the duplicates in a spreadsheet I was working on
- I lost my fur hood to my Helley Hansen coat on a ski trip. Do research to see if you can find another hood online.
- Copy a framework I liked in a slideshare and put it into an excel spreadsheet so I can apply it
I think I used 9 out of the 10 hours of my Zirtual plan this month. I absolutely love it because it creates more bandwidth for me to focus on important stuff. It’s also helping me to increase my comfort level delegating things. Flex that labor arbitrage muscle!
This is why I consider it a worthy investment.

Yes, I do get a referral fee for this. But hey, it’d be way worse if I told you how sweet something was and then you couldn’t have it ; )
