Crusoe names him “Friday” after the day he saves his life; referring to him as ‘my man Friday’
Friday is portrayed as a:
loyal and helpful companion, not merely a servant
a devoted ally to Crusoe rather than just someone performing tasks
Much like Crusoe’s loyal companion, Task Away’s “My Gal Friday” will be more than just helpful– she will be absolutely essential!
The term evolved over time. By 1940, it was popularized in the movie His Girl Friday, referring to the female lead, a secretary who was depicted as a loyal and efficient employee.
The character’s hardworking, devoted nature helped solidify the term’s association with a capable and reliable assistant.
Just as in the movie, our ‘Girl Friday’ will consistently stay one step ahead, transforming your challenges into opportunities, while handling everything with a smile.
How does a regular Task Away virtual assistant differ from a “My Gal Friday”?
Virtual Assistant:
Specializes in specific areas such as customer service, social media management, and bookkeeping
Skilled in handling more routine and technical tasks, including data entry, project coordination, and managing email and phone communication
Focuses more on handling tasks, rather than solving a problem
“My Gal Friday”:
A highly versatile assistant, who takes on a broader range of responsibilities
Will work with you, rather than for you– this includes running personal errands, scheduling appointments, and assisting with general administrative duties
There to provide support in both, professional and personal tasks.
A Virtual “My Gal Friday” is extremely helpful in freeing up your time by handling the tasks remotely, so that you can focus on growing your business and working on other projects. She can be especially helpful when trying to balance both professional and personal responsibilities, improving overall efficiency and reducing stress.
