At a Glance:
The differences between a ProAssisting EA and a Virtual Assistant
From experience and dedication to workload and responsiveness, the differences between a remote executive assistant and a virtual assistant are clear.
EXPERIENCE
A ProAssisting remote executive assistant has a minimum of 5+ years assisting a CEO/C-Suite Exec/Business Owner as their executive assistant in an office setting.
A virtual assistant’s experience can be from a high school graduate to an administrative assistant to a graphic designer or social media coordinator.
WORKLOAD
A ProAssisting remote executive assistant has a maximum of 3 clients in order to provide daily, full-service support to each of their clients.
A virtual assistant needs to service 10-20 clients a month at varying levels of support to fill their time.
DEDICATION
A ProAssisting remote executive assistant is the same person you work with day in and day out and whose knowledge of you, your company, and personal life gets more valuable over time.
A virtual assistant could be part of a team that works on your account, which sacrifices knowledge of your preferences, priority level or strategic objectives when completing tasks, projects or scheduling.
RESPONSIVENESS
A ProAssisting remote executive assistant provides unlimited email communication, specified turnaround times, and ‘as needed’ status calls.
A virtual assistant is tied to a strict schedule that may not align with your specific needs.
DIRECTION
A ProAssisting remote executive assistant serves holistically as your business partner, project manager, chief of staff, scheduler and personal assistant.
A virtual assistant is a task-based assistant that needs guidance and deadline expectations.
MOTIVATION
A ProAssisting remote executive assistant is compensated the same amount month in and month out, so they are efficient with their work and provide you with 1/3 of their daily resources.
A virtual assistant charges hourly and thus earns more the longer it takes them to complete tasks and projects.
LOCATION
A ProAssisting remote executive assistant is located in your time zone of choice to make you the most efficient depending on your business.
A virtual assistant could be in a different time zone from you, making the completion of assigned tasks more difficult to accomplish.
COMPENSATION
A ProAssisting remote executive assistant is compensated based on their top-level, executive assistant experience.
A virtual assistant may cost you $43 per hour but the assistant working with you only gets $18 per hour.
