Why Topeka businesses hire a virtual assistant
State agencies, health systems, insurance and manufacturing make up much of the local economy. Lawyers and consultants work around the capital, and many firms are small with limited staff.

Why hire your Topeka 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.
- You keep control of your accounts: Delegated email access and a password vault mean you never hand over your main password.
- Works under your supervision: You stay in charge of the legal work, and your assistant handles the administrative support around it.
- Knows agency systems: Applied Epic, AMS360, HawkSoft, EZLynx, QQCatalyst and NowCerts.
- 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.
- 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 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.
