DIY desk organizer

Is your workspace a jumble of jotting tools and paraphernalia?

Whisper a woodsy welcome to the season of serenity and organization!

Today’s project is brought to you by BELAY:

The average person spends about six hours every day on email – leaving about 10 hours every week to do actual work. And that doesn’t include calendar management, expense reporting, travel planning or any other administrative tasks the average person handles on any given day.

Because if you’re not delegating, you are the assistant, travel coordinator, data-entry specialist, schedule coordinator – and more. With BELAY, you could gain an average of 15 hours every week by delegating those tasks to a U.S.-based Virtual Assistant.

BELAY’s flexible staffing solutions help you reclaim your time with exceptional, highly vetted Virtual Assistants who will step in to handle those frequent, time-consuming tasks. 

In as little as one week, you can be intentionally matched with the right Virtual Assistant, so you can stop spending countless hours every week on tasks someone else can do for you. Focus on only your most important projects – and leave the rest to a BELAY Virtual Assistant.
