Your calendar is full but revenue per hour is stuck. That usually means high-volume, low-leverage work is still on your desk. Below are 10 tasks to delegate to a virtual assistant—the same ones EVA clients hand off first—plus how to delegate without taking the work back.

How to delegate tasks to a virtual assistant
Use a short Loom, bullet SOP, and one definition of done. Review weekly—not hourly. For search fundamentals on helpful content (if you also publish online), see Google’s SEO starter guide—same discipline applies to internal SOPs: clear beats clever.
Pro tip: Start with one task for two weeks. Only add task two when task one runs without you chasing.
