Our VAs cover a wide range of functions: inbox and calendar management, travel bookings, data entry, CRM updates, social media scheduling, lead generation, online research, bookkeeping support, and customer success tasks. If there’s a repeatable process in your business, we can usually match you with someone trained to handle it.
Yes. Whether you need temporary support to cover a busy period or a long-term assistant, we can match you with pre-vetted VAs who are ready to start within days, not weeks.
Freelancers often work project-to-project with little vetting, which can mean inconsistent quality. Betternship VAs are pre-screened for skills, communication, and reliability. They’re matched to your role, onboarded into your workflow, and backed by our compliance and support team. That means you get a long-term, dependable partner, not just a temporary gig worker.
Absolutely. Most of our clients hire VAs who work the same hours as their team, but we can also match you with assistants who are flexible and can overlap with US, UK, or EU time zones.
No. We manage contracts, compliance with labor laws, and monthly payroll. You don’t need to set up a local entity or figure out cross-border tax filings; we take care of everything so you can focus on the work getting done.
