What is a Virtual Office Assistant?
As a Virtual Office Assistant I offer you a vast array of affordable services designed to suit your budget! As an independent contractor I work from the comfort of my home which saves you time and money. My services are designed and tailored to suit your needs while helping you cut costs by not having to train a new employee or pay overhead expenses! Get the help you need with your office administrative tasks and promotional materials if and when you need it so that you can concentrate on generating revenue for your business. My services were designed to help Entrepreneurs and other small-businesses by offering assistance on a "need-for-help" basis without having overhead expenses to pay when compared to hiring traditional employees. By hiring a Virtual Office Assistant you will always have the help you need, when and if you need it. I am also available for urgent or rush jobs after regular business hours, on weekends and during most statutory holidays.
"Tasks or Projects are communicated to me via the internet, phone, fax or courier and sometimes for local clients, onsite".
You can choose from "Project or Retainer Services" (short or long-term). All tasks can be tailored to suit your specific needs whether you are a Project or Retainer client.
A Project Client is someone who needs a little added assistance but on a "need-for-help" basis only. Hourly rates are charged and billing is by quarterly increments.
Retainer Clients are those who need the extra help and require assistance on a more "regular basis" whether short or long term. The more hours required the more you save! Hourly rates are charged and billing is by the minute. Therefore, you only pay for the length of time it took to complete the task. If the task takes 2 hours and 17 minutes to complete, then that is what you pay for.
· For all first-time clients; a security deposit is payable on the cost of estimated work and the balance is payable upon
completion.
· An additional fee will be charged and is payable for all urgent and rush jobs after regular business hours, weekends and during
most holidays.
· All jobs are subject to a 4 hour minimum.
· Long Distance Charges may also apply for any calls made outside of the local calling area.
· All projects are payable by: Company or Certified Cheque. Money Orders are also accepted. Sorry no cash or personal
cheques accepted. However, payments are also payable through PayPal and emailed to [email protected]
