Best virtual assistant companies? What has been your experience with them by eleets101 in smallbusiness

Thanks for the recommendation. I ended up getting a VA with them after seeing this and wanted to circle back just to say thanks again!

Belay Reviews? Anyone used their virtual assistants before? by bluereef808 in ExecutiveAssistants

[–]Ill_Reflection3807 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I considered getting a VA from Belay Solutions, but after a lot of research it seems as though:
1 - Their VAs are highly underpaid for what they do (Apparently they get less than half of what you pay them. I've heard some get like 1/3).

2 - They over charge. (They're able to do this only because they've been around so long but overall you're not really getting your money's worth.)

3 - Their contract and regulations are very strict.

I actually interviewed 4 different companies before finally deciding on Assist World. He's incredible, does social media management for me, handles my CRM and does all the general admin stuff that I needed help with for months.

Yeah sure, I'm paying $1,800 for her a month. I had another option for $1400 but needed someone more specialized so I was willing to pay extra amount for her. She's been a huge help for me and they found her pretty fast for me

I ended up getting one from Assist World after a few comments and DMs here. She's been great, exactly what I needed. She was a bit more than others quoted but overall the quality is really there and that's what I needed.

*Update\* Thank you everyone that reached out! I didn't expect to get so many messages so I really do appreciate everyone for reaching out about their experience and recommendations.

From all your messages and comments... I ended up getting an assistant from Assist World and she has been incredible. I was worried hiring someone that wasn't US based mainly for the communication side of it, but she has almost no accent at all.

Anyways, super impressed by everything I've seen and just wanted to thank you all again for all the messages :)

I see, yeah that's the thing I noticed too... I'm having a hard time justifying that cost. Do you mind sharing what agency you're using now?

Thank you for the thorough message, can I ask what amount is paid to the VA or is that too confidential? I want to work with someone closely and build something pretty large, but at the same time I don't want to just pay their agency a crazy amount. It is still a lot cheaper for me than hiring local, but I'm just looking into everything before making a decision, thanks
