VA = Virtual Assistance = Assist you in a Job (means You are managing the whole business and He is there to do a Specific Job/Task for you and does not Handle Complete (A-Z) Business.)

AGENCY = Group of VAs (basically a Team) working under a system that provides A-Z (as described) Service in a proper way

We lose thousands of dollars in business in order to save a few hundred dollars in service fees.

Here is some explanation:

We made mistake here, that we hire VAs and told them to do A-Z Jobs, Please remember that Amazon FBA Wholesale is a Business in itself and it contains Departments such as the Suppliers Relationship Department (Sourcing Department), Product Evaluation & Data Analysis Department, Ordering & Amazon Selling Department, Accounting Department, etc.

When these departments work in sync, they are able to run Amazon Wholesale A-Z properly.

“How can one person do the work of multiple departments?” While this is the work of various people.

So, when should you hire a virtual assistant?

The answer is that if you have experience running the business, and you have already put systems in place, and then you need a person to assist you in a specific department, then hire a “VA.”

Then when do you have to hire an agency?

The answer is that if you don’t have the systems in place and require the A-Z Amazon Wholesale Service, then instead of going with VA, find an agency, company, or team to do it.

If we conclude:

If your systems are in place already, then hire a VA for specific tasks.

If your systems are not in place and you require A–Z services, then hire an agency or team that has this already in place.
