Wishup executive assistants are deployed in industries like real estate, healthcare, startups, e-commerce, and 50+ other domains. Irrespective of your business niche, an executive assistant can be easily aligned with the owner of a construction company, an insurance agency, or a fitness coach.

Our C-suite executive assistants have a decade of experience solving business problems in your niche.

Base EA offers a premium executive support experience built on 11 years of placement intelligence and a proprietary matching engine that connects you with the top 1% of U.S.-based assistants.

From day one, your EA leads the onboarding process, setting up systems, workflows, and priorities so you don’t have to. Whether you start part-time or scale quickly, Base gives you flexible engagement options backed by assistants who anticipate needs, solve proactively, and consistently operate a level above traditional admin support.

Wishup gives you 80 hours/month for $999. Base gives you 40 hours per month for $2600.

How Much Does It Cost to Hire a Base Executive Assistant?

The pricing for hiring a Base Executive Assistant (EA) starts at $950 for a temporary EA and $2600 per month for a Subscription EA.

Why Wishup’s 60-Minute Onboarding Isn’t Just Fast. It’s a Business Advantage.

You're not hiring an executive assistant because you want a match. You're hiring because you're already underwater.

You’re already spending 4+ hours a day context-switching between calendar Tetris, Slack noise, internal follow-ups, missed investor intros, task triage, and LinkedIn replies that should’ve gone out a week ago.

Wishup and Base are both known for providing high-quality executive assistants, but how they support you after the hire makes all the difference.

Wishup Assigns You a Dedicated Account and Executive Assistant Manager

Every client is assigned a dedicated account manager and an Executive Assistant Manager whose sole job is to make sure the relationship works. That means real human support, not automated check-ins.

From the moment you are onboard, we embed into your workflow and learn your delegation style, tracking assistant performance, and proactively helping optimize your day-to-day operations.

Our Client Success team meets with you, improves your delegation efficiency, and helps optimize the assistant relationship over time.
