Virtual Assistant Outsourcing

Updated: Sep 22

Outsourcing can feel like a leap. Will it save time? Will client data be safe? Will the quality hold? If you run a therapy practice, clinic or small business, those are fair questions. Your client time and trust come first.


Here is a clear, UK-focused guide to virtual assistant outsourcing, plus my service offer with transparent pricing.


What is virtual assistant outsourcing

Virtual assistant outsourcing means you hand defined tasks to a VA who works remotely and delivers consistent results. I plug into your systems, follow your terms of business, and keep your operations running smoothly.


Typical tools: Calendly or ZCal, Stripe, LastPass, Microsoft 365 or Google Workspace, Zoom or Teams, your website and anything else you consider appropriate.

FAQs: Virtual Assistant Outsourcing

Within a week for core admin once access is set. Expect a 2 to 4 week bedding in period to fine tune SOPs.

Clear payment terms in the contract. Monthly invoice. 50% paid upfront and 50% paid on completion. Many clients use bank transfer or prefer Stripe for reconciliation.

Calendly or ZCal, Microsoft 365 or Google Workspace, LastPass, and anything else you consider appropriate - I adapt to your setup.
