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.
