Why can’t a FA get a simple task done promptly? If can’t manage admin work, hire a PA.

Sent reminders to FA for simple task like submitting forms but still not done after reminding. Not the first reminder I have sent to FA. I understand work can be busy sometimes but please get the basic admin work. It’s getting ridiculous that I have to send reminders. What would you do if you are me? Change agent? Confront?

Red flag alert. Completing admin tasks don't bring them dough - closing clients do.

If they're more occupied with making money than they are with providing quality service, then hmmmmmmmmm.

Big red flag.

Hi!

Seems like you are really annoyed with your FA. Haha! Anyway, we should understand that Life happens! So if this experience with your FA is a one off thing then I would rather give him/her the benefit of doubt and assume that something came up that’s probably more urgent than my documents. It could be personal or professional.

However, if this is a recurring thing, then it’s best to bring it to your FA’s attention. After all everyone deserves a second chance. It will be good to explain them the problems that you are having and give them a chance to be better.

if the behaviour continues even after this, then you should change your FA. FA is supposed to make your life convenient and easy. If that’s not the case, then switch!

Hope this helps.
