Virtual Assistance (VA) refers to remote administrative, technical, or creative assistance provided by independent contractors. These professionals work from a remote location (often their home office)
and use technology to deliver their services. VAs handle tasks ranging from scheduling appointments and managing emails to social media management and customer support, freeing up businesses and
individuals to focus on core activities.

In essence, a virtual assistant is a highly skilled professional who provides support services remotely. They offer a flexible and cost-effective alternative to hiring traditional in-house staff.
