Questions

What is a virtual personal assistant?

A remote assistant who handles personal and work admin for you: scheduling, inbox, travel, bills, research and errands that can be done online or by phone.

Is it safe to share personal details?

Use shared password managers and delegated access instead of passwords, limit card access, and ask for a confidentiality agreement.

Personal assistant or executive assistant?

An executive assistant focuses on your work and business. A personal assistant also covers home and family admin. Many do both.

How many hours do I need?

Many people start with 5 to 10 hours a week.
