You have an amazing assistant. You couldn’t do without them. You want to say “thank you,” but how? Here are 5 last-minute gift ideas you can grab for your virtual assistant to show your appreciation.
Amazon Gift card
The tried and true Amazon gift card never gets old. Easy to buy, easy to send, easy to use on pretty much anything. This is a gift that your VA will happily use it on something for their home office.
Something with Caffeine
Caffeine makes the world go ’round. Oh, is that not how it goes? Well, sometimes it feels like it. Juggling multiple to-do lists for clients, while keeping your own life and business managed call for energy–and lots of it. A few great choices are either a gift card to a coffee shop, or some dark chocolate to snack on. (And maybe pair it with the cutest mug ever?)
Uninterrupted Music
Listening to your favorite tunes without ads is a luxury these days. Why not treat your VA to it? There are plenty of options to choose from, with Spotify coming in at the top and iTunes following close behind. Other options include Pandora, YouTube Music, and Amazon Music.
Subscription Box
Subscription boxes were all the rage only a few years ago, and thankfully it seems they’re here to stay. The ultimate convenience for gifting when you just don’t know what to get someone (or for treating yourself), it’s an excellent choice for your VA. One box that gets rave reviews is the Sparkle Hustle Grow box for boss entrepreneurs who are killing it. If that doesn’t describe your virtual assistant, I don’t know what does.
Business Support
The ultimate gift for your virtual assistant, in my humble opinion, would be something that supports them in their business. Is there a training, webinar or membership that your VA has been interested in, but just hasn’t pulled the trigger on yet? What better way to show your gratitude than to gift something that supports them in all their hard work. My personal favorite is the SavvyVault: a collection of quality trainings that teach the industry and tech skills your VA needs to succeed. It’s quite extensive and a valuable resource for your VA to have in their pocket.
Whether you choose to send your VA a card or a thank you gift, make sure they know you value them. The entire job of a VA is based on supporting others in their business. The best feeling in the world is knowing we’re doing a great job and are appreciated for our hard work.
