One of the responsibilities I take on as an Estate Management EA is to handle the admin for scheduling staff and submitting their timesheets for approval. At any given time I have to track staff at over a dozen locations throughout the country, which can makes this a very time consuming task.
If you haven't informed or instructed your vendors on how the property needs to be cared for, they probably don't know what to do. It's worth taking time to note the general procedures and expectations for all vendors.
Estate managers run households like small businesses, but the tools they're using can't keep up. Enough with the tedious spreadsheets and endless text messages. Estate managers need technology that's built specifically for them, so they can avoid burnout, stop working 24/7, and focus on their favorite parts of the job.
Every estate has unique staffing needs. A practical formula helps estate managers evaluate property size, service expectations, and household operations to build a team that keeps everything running smoothly.
