Why hire your Corpus Christi assistant from Virtual Assistant
Your assistant works remotely and keeps Central time business hours, so your day and theirs line up. You get a person who learns your business, with a team behind them when something needs fixing.
- Easy to start small: Begin with the inbox and calendar on 20 hours a month, then add more as you see what can come off your plate.
- Your voice, your policies: Your assistant works from your scripts and rules, so customers hear your business and not an outside call center.
- Old books can be fixed: Start with a one-time cleanup project, then use a monthly package to keep everything current.
- Clear prices, no lock-in: See your exact price before you order. Month-to-month packages can be cancelled any time, and unused hours roll over within your package limit.
- A US account manager: One person matches you, runs your kickoff call and stays your contact if anything needs fixing.
- Free replacement: If your assistant is not the right fit, we match you with a different one at no extra cost.
A virtual assistant or an in-house hire?
An in-house hire makes sense when the job needs someone physically on site. For work done on a screen or a phone, a virtual assistant usually costs far less, because you pay only for working hours, with no recruiting, desk, equipment or payroll taxes to arrange. You can also start with 20 hours a month and grow, instead of committing to a full-time salary before you know how much work there is.
How to get started this week

- Pay your itemized invoice by card or crypto
- Your US account manager matches you within 1 to 3 business days and runs your kickoff call
