#67 Anna Brambilla: Reclaim Your Time With a Virtual Assistant

Are you drowning in admin tasks and losing sight of why you started your business in the first place? In this episode of DissedMedia: A Startup Story, Ben sits down with Anna Brambilla, founder of Virtually Aligned, to talk about how hiring the right virtual assistant can help entrepreneurs reclaim their time, refocus on their zone of genius, and fall back in love with their business.

Anna shares how she personally reclaimed 10 to 15 hours per week and doubled her revenue after hiring her first VA eight years ago. She breaks down what makes Virtually Aligned different from the big agencies and freelance platforms, how they source and screen top executive assistant talent from the Philippines, and what founders need to know before making their first hire. From delegation strategies to payment logistics to building a lasting working relationship, this episode is packed with practical insight for any entrepreneur ready to stop doing it all themselves.

If you are curious about virtual assistants or have tried the Fiverr and Upwork route and walked away frustrated, this episode is for you. Learn more about Virtually Aligned and schedule a no-pressure conversation with Anna at https://virtuallyaligned.com/
