Cost to Hire a Virtual Assistant in Los Angeles
Other virtual assistant companies require you to sign up for set plans with weekly or monthly minimums. They gatekeep your VAs identity behind a screen, or you aren’t allowed to meet face-to-face before deciding to work together.
We handle things differently- both prior to hire, and after. We’ll send you personalized matches and handle all the interview scheduling at no cost. If you decide to hire an assistant we’ve introduced, we charge a one-time $750 Placement Fee. Not set plans or minimums. You’ll have the ease of direct communication with your VA, how and when it suits you. We believe a strong, direct relationship is the basis of all good work.

Hiring a virtual AssistantHow To Know If a Virtual Assistant Is Right For You
If it feels like there are never enough hours in the day, a virtual assistant could be exactly what you need. Whether you’re balancing a demanding job, running a household, or simply craving more breathing room, a VA can help take the extra weight off your shoulders. You don’t need to be a CEO or high-profile executive to benefit (though we welcome those too!). Our clients are parents, entrepreneurs, creatives, business owners, and everyday people who just want their time back.
Here are a few signs it might be the right fit:
Your to-do list keeps growing no matter how much you check off
You spend time on tasks that could easily be delegated (like scheduling or admin work)
You often find yourself being the bottleneck in your own life or business
You want to get organized but don’t have the bandwidth to start
You’ve thought “I wish I had another me” more than once this week
The best part? You don’t need to hire a full-time employee. We specialize in part-time placements because even a few hours of support each week can make a huge difference.
