15 Admin Tasks You Should Stop Doing and Delegate to a Filipino Virtual Assistant

Still spending hours sorting emails, updating spreadsheets, and scheduling meetings? You're not alone — but you shouldn’t be. In 2025, delegating core admin work to a skilled Filipino virtual assistant isn’t just smart — it’s necessary.

You're Wasting Time on Work You Shouldn’t Be Doing

Admin work is important — but it’s also one of the biggest silent killers of productivity.

When you're deep in the weeds of scheduling, follow-ups, and file cleanup, you're not focused on growth, sales, or leadership. You're simply keeping up.

If you’re serious about scaling, it's time to stop holding everything yourself — and start offloading to someone who can handle the daily details with precision.

Why Filipino Virtual Assistants Excel in Admin Roles

Filipino VAs are known worldwide for their:

• Professional English communication
• Loyalty, reliability, and proactive attitude
• Familiarity with tools like Google Workspace, Zoom, Trello, CRMs, and Slack
• Cultural alignment with US-based businesses

At BBVA, we specialize in sourcing and supporting high-caliber Filipino VAs — trained not just to complete tasks, but to own them.

15 Admin Tasks You Should Be Delegating Today

Here’s what you can start handing off — with total confidence:

1. Managing Your Inbox

Let your VA sort, tag, archive, and even reply to emails so you’re only seeing what matters.

2. Scheduling Meetings

No more back-and-forth emails. Your VA can book appointments, confirm availability, and send reminders.

3. Organizing Digital Files

From Drive folders to Dropbox archives, your VA can keep everything neatly filed and easy to access.

4. Updating CRMs and Contact Lists

Your VA can log new leads, update deal stages, tag contacts, and keep your pipeline fresh.

5. Taking Meeting Notes

Have them join Zoom calls, summarize action items, and send recaps to keep your team aligned.

6. Preparing Invoices and Proposals

Using your templates, they can generate professional documents and make sure nothing gets delayed.

7. Handling Customer Emails

Let your VA respond to inquiries, send welcome emails, or forward issues to the right person.

8. Tracking Orders or Projects

Whether it’s delivery updates or internal project checklists, your VA can monitor progress and notify you of delays.

9. Formatting Docs and Slides

Your VA can clean up proposals, pitch decks, or course materials so they’re polished and client-ready.

10. Research

Need software comparisons? Competitor pricing? A contact list from LinkedIn? Your VA has you covered.

11. Creating Standard Templates

From onboarding checklists to email follow-up sequences — your VA can build reusable systems.

12. Data Entry

No more mindless copy-paste work. Let your VA input data into spreadsheets, dashboards, or CRMs.

13. Travel Booking and Itinerary Planning

Flights, hotels, car rentals — your VA can research options and handle booking details.

14. Time Tracking and Expense Logs

Track your hours or client billables, log receipts, and create tidy reports for end-of-month reviews.

15. Personal Admin

Gifting, scheduling personal appointments, ordering supplies — if it eats up time, it belongs on your VA’s to-do list, not yours.
