Before you hire
Four steps to hiring well
Whoever you hire, these steps decide whether it works.
Step 1
List the tasks
Write down the recurring work that takes your time: inbox, calendar, CRM, research, data entry, follow-ups.
Step 2
Estimate the hours
Most clients start with 10 to 20 hours a week and add more as the work proves out.
Step 3
Pick the model
A freelancer, an agency that places one person, or a managed team with a lead and QA.
Step 4
Start with a trial
A short trial with written instructions shows you the quality before you commit.

FAQ
Common questions
How do I hire a virtual assistant?
List the tasks you want off your plate, decide how many hours a week they take, choose between a freelancer and a managed service, then start with a short trial and written instructions for each task.
How much does it cost to hire a virtual assistant?
Offshore assistants from agencies cost about $6 to $15 an hour, and US based VA services about $36 to $65. Opteamus starts at $10 an hour with management and QA included. See the cost guide.
Should I hire a freelancer or use a managed service?
A freelancer can be cheaper per hour, but you do the hiring, training and checking yourself, and start over if they leave. A managed service adds a lead, a QA check and a replacement when the fit is wrong. Compare the two.
Is there a trial?
Yes. VA engagements start with a one-week trial, so you can judge the work before you commit.
Is there a contract?
No long-term contract. It runs month to month.
What hours do you work?
US business hours. Our team is based in Dhaka, Bangladesh, and works on US time, so you can reach us live during your working day.
