What counts as virtual admin?
Virtual admin covers the administrative work a business would otherwise hand to an office administrator, delivered remotely instead of from a desk in your building. In practice that means the inbox is read and sorted before you open it, the diary is managed rather than merely populated, invoices go out on the day they should, and the documents you need are named consistently and stored where you can find them.
The distinction that matters is ownership. Task-by-task freelancing means you still hold every process in your head. Virtual admin support means a recurring responsibility genuinely moves across — the weekly invoice run happens whether or not you remember to ask for it.
