I never considered hiring a virtual assistant for my business but Wishup was different, my virtual assistant exceeded expectations! It is more affordable than I thought and the help she provides on a daily basis is incredible! I get more work done with my VA helping me with important tasks like email management, calendaring, bookkeeping and much more. Highly recommended for any tech founder trying to balance time and productivity.

We are extremely happy with Wishup VAs that work for SendX! If a job can be outsourced to a VA we first do that, instead of hiring a full time employee. This gives a unique execution advantage as hiring a VA takes in a few days rather than spending a few months hiring. Using Wishup for VAs has been a really great business decision for SendX and would strongly recommend them.

Everything You Need to Know About Hiring a Virtual Executive Assistant

Every meeting you book, email you chase, or report you update… costs you time you’ll never get back. A Virtual Executive Assistant gives you those hours back — so you can focus on running your business.

What is an Administrative Executive Assistant?

An administrative executive assistant handles the day-to-day tasks that keep your business running smoothly. Unlike regular assistants, executive assistants work directly with company leaders, handling sensitive information and making decisions when needed. They become your right hand, managing your schedule, communications, and office operations so you can focus on growing your business.

When you hire a remote executive assistant, you get all these benefits without the overhead costs of an in-office employee. Our virtual executive assistants work from their own spaces but are fully dedicated to your business needs during their working hours.

Why Business Leaders Need Executive Assistant Support

Running a business takes enormous time and energy. Most CEOs and directors spend over 20 hours weekly on tasks that don't require their expertise:

  • Sorting through hundreds of emails
  • Scheduling and rescheduling meetings
  • Organizing travel arrangements
  • Creating presentations and reports
  • Handling customer service issues

By hiring an executive virtual assistant, you immediately free up these hours for strategic work that actually grows your business. Our clients report gaining back 15-20 hours every week—that's nearly 1,000 hours per year!

Key Differences: Virtual vs. In-House Executive Assistants

Virtual Executive Assistant Traditional In-House Assistant
No office space required Needs physical workspace
No equipment costs Computer, phone, supplies needed
No overheads Full employment costs
Flexible hours Fixed work schedule
Pre-vetted skills Training period required
Can scale hours up/down Fixed full-time position
Global talent pool Local candidates only

Our virtual executive assistants offer the same high-quality support without the added costs of employment. You save approximately 40% compared to hiring an in-house assistant while getting fully trained professionals from day one.

How Much Does a Virtual Executive Assistant Cost?

Virtual executive assistants typically cost 40-60% less than in-house staff. At Wishup, our plans start at $9.99/hour.

How to Get the Most From Your Executive Assistant

Working with a remote executive assistant requires clear communication and proper delegation. Follow these best practices for success:

Set Clear Expectations

Share your communication preferences, working hours, and priorities from day one. Be specific about deadlines and quality standards so your assistant knows exactly what success looks like.

Use the Right Tools

Simple tools make remote work seamless. We recommend:

  • Shared calendar systems (Google Calendar, Outlook)
  • Task management platforms (Asana, Trello)
  • Communication channels (Slack, Teams)
  • Document sharing (Google Drive, Dropbox)
  • Password managers (LastPass, 1Password)

Build Trust Through Process

Start with smaller tasks and gradually increase responsibility. Create feedback loops and regular check-ins to ensure everything runs smoothly. The most successful executive-assistant relationships are built on clear processes and mutual respect.

Finding the Right Executive Assistant for Your Needs

Not all executive assistants have the same skills and experience. When hiring a virtual executive assistant, consider:

Industry Experience

An assistant who understands your field will require less training and can provide more valuable support. At Wishup, we match you with assistants who have relevant experience in your industry.

Skill Alignment

Make a list of your most important tasks and ensure your assistant has experience with them. Common skills include:

  • Advanced calendar management
  • Travel coordination
  • Expense reporting
  • CRM management
  • Basic graphic design
  • Social media management

Communication Style

Some executives prefer frequent updates while others want independence. Our matching process ensures you get an assistant whose working style complements your own.

Why Wishup Stands Out for Executive Assistant Services

When comparing virtual executive assistant services, consider what makes Wishup different:

  • College-educated professionals: All our executive assistants have bachelor's degrees or higher.
  • Rigorous selection process: Only 0.1% of applicants become Wishup assistants.
  • US-based support team: Get help whenever you need it from our US-based customer success managers.
  • Specialized training: Industry-specific knowledge tailored to your business needs.
  • Quick replacements: Easily replace your EA with another EA without any hassles or delays. No questions asked.
