A virtual assistant is general term for an offshore professional who provides administrative, technical, or creative assistance to clients remotely. They are cost-effective alternatives to full-time employees and can be hired for both short-term and long-term tasks.
A virtual assistant is a type of remote worker who usually handles administrative, operational, or support tasks for businesses from a different location. Common tasks include inbox management, scheduling, research, customer service, and social media. Most virtual assistants work as independent contractors.
A remote worker is anyone who works outside a company’s office. This can include developers, designers, marketers, salespeople, and many other roles. They might be full-time employees or freelancers.
In short, all virtual assistants are remote workers, but not all remote workers are virtual assistants. Virtual assistants usually fill support roles, while remote workers can cover a wide range of positions, including leadership roles.
Most clients are matched with a virtual assistant in about one to two weeks. We handle the sourcing, vetting, and onboarding, so you just tell us what you need and we get things moving quickly. If you have a unique request or need someone extra specialized, it might take a little longer, but we always keep you in the loop.
You could, but hiring on your own takes a ton of time and energy. You have to post jobs, sift through hundreds of resumes, interview candidates, and then figure out payroll, compliance, and benefits. With Cherry Assistant, you skip all the hassle and get a fully-vetted, experienced assistant who’s ready to go. Plus, you can scale up or down as your needs change, without any long-term commitments.
Nope, there’s no long-term contract required. You can work with us month-to-month and pause or stop anytime. We want to keep things flexible so you only pay for what you need.
Assigning work is simple. Most clients use email, chat, or task management tools like Asana or Trello. Just let your assistant know what you need done, set priorities, and they’ll handle the rest. If you’re not sure how to set up the workflow, we’ll help you get started and make sure it fits your style.
