Fiverr
Project-based marketplace where sellers list fixed-price packages.
Fiverr is a marketplace built around fixed-price packages. Sellers list what they offer and buyers order it, which works well for defined deliverables. It is less suited to ongoing assistant relationships, though some sellers offer recurring admin work.

What Fiverr Does
Orders are scoped up front, so pricing is predictable for small projects.
For a dedicated assistant, a staffing service or a job board is usually a better fit.
How Pricing Works
Fiverr uses a fixed-price packages set by sellers plus platform fees model. Marketplaces let workers set their own rates and add a platform fee on top. You pay only for the hours or projects you use, but you also do the screening and management yourself.
Who It Is Best For
Fiverr is a strong fit for one-off projects with a clear deliverable. Its talent is based in Global, so check that the time zones line up with the hours you need covered.
Things To Check Before You Sign
Run a paid test task before committing to ongoing work.

Before You Commit
Questions To Ask Any Virtual Assistant Company
Use these on the first call. Clear answers are a good sign. Vague ones tell you something too.
Who employs the assistant, and who pays them?
The answer decides your legal exposure, your costs, and who handles problems.
What exactly did you check before introducing this person?
Ask for the English test, the skills assessment, and the reference calls, not a summary.
What happens if it is not working after two weeks?
Replacement terms, refund windows, and notice periods should be in writing.
Which hours will they work, and in what time zone?
Overlap with your day matters more than the region name on the website.
How do you handle data security and access?
Passwords, customer data, and payment details need a process, not a promise.
What is the total monthly cost, including fees?
Placement fees, platform fees, and payroll charges add up. Get one number.
