What is a VA and is a Virtual Assistant an employee of my company?

A Virtual Assistant is an independent contractor that works from a home based office, providing administrative services on a broad scope to businesses and individuals. Convenience, flexibility, reliability, your single source for administrative needs, and your one stop shop.
A VA is not an employee, but an independent contractor that works in a professional relationship capacity with the client, meeting their needs and working on a service plan that is in the client’s budget.
What if there is a service not offered, am I able to request or hire another VA?

Yes, you can hire another VA if there is a service I am unable to provide, OR we can outsource the job to a fellow VA that is well-versed in that specific area.
For example, if web design is needed, then we will find a VA that is certified in that area and would give you the best service, so leaving this in our hands would ultimately be the best thing to do than to try to find another VA on your own.

If there is a service not on the list, please ask and we will decide if this is a service we are able to provide, or if there is need to outsource to another VA. For any services provided that are not on this website, additional charges may apply.

What if I don’t want to pay the 10hr minimum? Is there any flexibility on the retainers and minimum hour charge?

Unfortunately, we are unable to go under the 10hr minimum, as this is not conducive to this business. As a small business owner, the bottom line is necessary to continue to stay up and running, providing efficient and professional services to our clients. The motto is high end servicing, not being priced out of the competition. Time is valuable, and so are our services. You get what you pay for, & that is really the bottom line.

For retainer packages, there is flexibility in amount of hours a client can buy. We are able to offer 10, 20, 30, and unlimited package deal. If a 40hr package is needed, then please request and we will quote a price depending on servicing requested. For unlimited packages, will determine the best pricing to fit the client needs.

Here is what one can expect when working with a VA on a partnership basis:

We partner with clientele mostly on a retainer basis, building the relationship and establishing a knowledge of YOUR business, taking a vested interest in helping to maintain and assist in broadening the current customer base, and improving the bottom line overall.

Our creative & innovative ways are keys in working with a client to provide a service and a need, with 100% satisfaction guaranteed. Our job is to find a solution in helping your bottom line, not adding to it. We will work on a checklist with you to accomplish what your business needs.

Retainer packages are available for different hours, therefore meeting budget needs and constraints. Monthly unlimited retainers are available upon request as well (ask for quote). We are there to work WITH the client in meeting needs and wants.

Delegate! Don’t juggle anymore & free up your time to worry about other matters that need your attention as a business owner. Let us handle the rest for you in a timely manner, adding hours to your day and free up your time. Your success is our success.

Never worry about employees again, hiring and firing, payroll, deductions, workman’s comp, unemployment, etc. With a VA, all work is on a contract basis, and only pay for work completed. Retainer packages are icing on the cake, building a working relationship, therefore booking more work for future and on an on-going basis.

Professionalism, flexibility, work ethic, excellent relationship building, organization and attention to details are just a few of the high points of services. You ask, we deliver, simple as that. Security in your documents is also provided, always having up to date protection and firewalls to prevent any corruption of data.

What is the difference working with a VA, verses hiring a consultant or employee?

A VA is an independent contractor, meaning no employee deductions, insurance, benefits or wages need to be addressed. No workman comp or unemployment concerns. SAVE TIME AND MONEY!

Retainer packages and per project costs to help your company, thus impacting & expanding the bottom line as a result. NO more paying for employees standing around, taking unnecessary breaks on your time, or employees being out sick and still paying for a day of work.

No worries about buying equipment or software for employees. We have our own equipment and office space.
Consultants are project based & specific, & our services are broad in scope for administrative support.

VA services will provide on-going and consistent results, contributing more to your bottom line. A consultant is more limited to per project, and usually does not develop that relationship with your company.
