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.
