How SOPs Keep Your Business Running While You’re Away
Whether you're prepping for vacation or just trying to create breathing room in your business, Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) are your secret weapon.
They ensure your team or VA can step in and handle tasks without you micromanaging every step. At Velia’s Virtual Solutions, we use SOPs to keep projects moving, emails answered, and tasks completed—even when our clients step away.
Before taking a break last year, I used Loom to record how to respond to client messages, manage inbox triage, and handle task updates in ClickUp. My backup VA had access to everything in our shared Google Drive folder and didn’t need to check in once.
Pro Tip: Don’t overthink the format—clarity beats perfection. Even a simple Loom video with a shared checklist can save hours of confusion.
