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 someone we’ve introduced, there’s just a one-time $575 Placement Fee. Not set plans or minimums. You’ll then 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.

How 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 weight off your shoulders. You don’t need to be a CEO or high-powered 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.
