What Sagan Does
Sagan runs a search and presents a shortlist, and the client employs or contracts the hire directly.
It skews toward experienced candidates rather than entry-level assistants.
How Pricing Works
Sagan uses a placement fee model. Recruiting agencies usually charge a one-time placement fee, often expressed as a percentage of first-year pay or a flat amount. After that, you pay the assistant directly or through a payroll provider. Ask about the guarantee period and what happens if the hire leaves early.
Who It Is Best For
Sagan is a strong fit for startups hiring senior remote operators and assistants. Its talent is based in Latin America, Philippines, South Africa, Global, so check that the time zones line up with the hours you need covered.
Things To Check Before You Sign

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.
