FAQs

1. Who are Wishup’s Virtual Assistants?

Your Virtual Assistant is a smart and experienced professional. They are qualified and rigorously trained in-house, for a month, on over 50 business and executive related tasks.

2. When is my Virtual Assistant available?

Your VAs are available Mon - Fri from 9 AM to 6 PM ET

3. What is dedicated assistance?

Each of our plans includes a dedicated Virtual Assistant (VA). You will work with your VA on a one-on-one basis, directly assigning tasks to them. Your VA will gradually get to know you, your work, and your preferences—all while learning to anticipate your needs. They schedule their days to best serve you and your tasks without delay. As such, we do not offer immediate turnaround, though we expect most tasks to be completed in 24-48 hours. We encourage you to place priority levels and deadlines on your projects.

4. I just signed up! What can I expect next?

Firstly, welcome aboard! We will start locating the best VA for you, using the information you’ve shared during the signup process. After we’ve determined which of our team members would be the best fit for your needs—we’ll send an email connecting the two of you. We suggest hopping on a quick call soon after. We aim to introduce you to your VA within 2 business days of signing up.

5. Do my hours roll over?

Our clients subscribe to our monthly membership service for the ability to retain a Virtual Assistant. While each plan offers a different level of service, as a membership subscription our plan hours do not roll over.

6. Can I share tasks on the weekend with my VA?

You can assign tasks any time, day or night, weekday or weekend. If assigned before/after business hours, your VA will receive the task(s) the following business day to begin working on them. Kindly take note that if you send a task minutes before the workday ends, it is unlikely to be completed that same day.
