TaskBullet

Posted by Mica Harvey / Dedicated Virtual Assistants, Featured, Philippines Virtual Assistants, Virtual Assistant Companies, Virtual Employees

TaskBullet was founded in 2013 and has quickly become a leader in the virtual assistant industry. The company is owned and operated in the United States with the staff based in the Philippines.

TaskBullet uses a unique “Bucket System” of buying hours, which means no monthly bills, contracts, or fees.

About TaskBullet

Virtual assistants either work from their home offices or from TaskBullet’s central PCI compliant facility, which is ideal for assistants to handle inbound and outbound calls.

TaskBullet project managers are also located in the Philippines and there is a U.S. based customer support staff, if ever there is a problem.

TaskBullet virtual assistants go through a rigorous hiring process. In particular, they company seeks out VAs who are quick learners and who have advanced English skills.

On top of that, they invest in training their team and treating everyone with value. After all, happy virtual assistants are more likely to stick around and make for happy clients!

How it Works

The Bucket System

TaskBullet doesn’t have monthly bills, contracts, or fees.

TaskBullet uses buckets of hours that the VA pulls from while they are actively working on your tasks. When your bucket is empty, simply purchase another bucket of hours and continue on.

You can upgrade, downgrade, or take a break, it’s up to you.

Every TaskBullet Bucket of Hours comes with a project manager to oversee your tasks. You can delegate your tasks to your project manager for quick assignment to an available and skilled VA. If you have the same reoccurring tasks you can have a dedicated VA to delegate tasks to directly.

Your project manager and your VA will be available during your business hours. They’re there when you need them.

Assigning tasks

TaskBullet uses Basecamp, a very simple and effective task management system to upload and monitor your tasks. When you sign up you will get an email from them inviting you to set up your free TaskBullet Basecamp project.

All your tasks, files and communication can take place in one convenient location.

Getting Started

Getting started with TaskBullet is very quick and easy. They can usually have you submitting tasks the same day you sign up.

They offer a Welcome Call to all new sign ups, where they show you around Basecamp and help you upload your first task. They will send you an email asking you to pick a time for one of their on-boarding specialists to call you.

Task Bullet Founder Interview

Services

The company is able to provide dedicated virtual assistants, while still being able to tap into a team with a broad range of skills.

Many TaskBullet VAs have several years of experience in their fields. You can get an assistant who’ll handle:

website management
mail marketing
social media accounts
customer service
research
and more

Since they’re your dedicated VA, you also can train them to meet your specific needs and requirements.

You have 3 points of contact:

your VA
your dedicated VA project manager
your US-based team lead

For advanced skills or roles your dedicated VA isn’t the best fit to handle, you can apply your pre-paid time to others on their team to get your work done without having to source a new company or freelancer.

It’s a service by entrepreneurs for entrepreneurs. As such, they have a strong understanding of what you need – affordable quality help, and what you don’t – stress, overhead, headaches.

Task Bullet service comes with no start-up fees and a 60-day money back guarantee. If you’re unhappy with your VA, the company will set up with a new one immediately. In addition, new customers receive a free consultation on how to most effectively work with their VA.

Plans and Pricing

I appreciated how they were upfront with their pricing – with none of the “contact us for a quote” stuff you see on some other sites.

The rates start $6.50/hour when you buy a 240 hour block, enough for the equivalent of 6 weeks of full-time support.

Many TaskBullet clients begin with the “Starter Bucket”, which offers 20 hours of support for $220 ($11/hr).

In the middle, the “Light” plan is $9 an hour for a bucket of 60 hours.

Customers aren’t billed on a recurring monthly basis, but rather can renew their hours, upgrade, or downgrade at any time.

That structure makes sense if you don’t have a consistent workload each week, but are confident you’ll use the time eventually. And if you do have routine tasks to assign, you’ve got an affordable flexible VA service.

Highlights:

You have 90 days to use the hours in your bucket.
There are no contracts and no monthly fees.
This is a one-time purchase for hours that you can use any time over the next 3 months.
You do not purchase additional hours until your current bucket runs out.
You can use as many or as little hours as you want per day/week/month.

TaskBullet Alternatives

While there are certainly other virtual assistant companies in the Philippines, TaskBullet is the only one I’m aware of that operates without monthly subscription fees.

Get Friday

Posted by Mica Harvey / India Virtual Assistants, Virtual Assistant Companies

Get Friday is an outsourcing company that is based in Bangalore, India. They are best-known as the virtual assistant division of Your Man in India (YMII), the famous personal concierge company. Get Friday caters to the needs of individuals who have hectic schedules, by offering virtual assistants who can deliver high quality work on administrative tasks.

About Get Friday

If you’re curious, the name “Get Friday” is inspired by Daniel Dafoe’s classic Robinson Crusoe. In the novel, the title character has an assistant he calls Friday, who becomes his right-hand man and is critical to his survival.

Get Friday has been around since 2005, and now employs 200 energetic and professional virtual assistants who help clients around the world conquer the challenges of business and everyday life.

As one of the longest running VA companies, they’ve served more than 11,000 clients in over 40 countries.

Services

Some examples of the kind of tasks Get Friday does best would be setting appointments, making travel arrangements, and moderating websites.

Beyond that, their virtual assistants have even helped find a customer’s lost dog and plan a wedding! Where else are you going to find a wedding planner for this cheap?

Get Friday Intro Video

Plans and Pricing

Get Friday offers an array of virtual assistant service plans that start from Pay-As-You-Go at a rate of $15 an hour, all the way up to Full Time (160 hours a month) at a rate of $1120 a month or just $7 an hour.

All the plans over 40 hours a month include “rollover” time, so unused hours can be applied to next month’s service. There are no long-term contracts; you can cancel, upgrade, or downgrade your plan at any time with 30 days notice. Get Friday also will quote prices for one-time projects if you send them a description of what needs to be done.

Hiring a virtual assistant is a big decision, and Get Friday offers a 7 day free trial period to ease some of that anxiety. If you’re not happy with the service, just cancel without any obligation.

One thing I noticed when opening my Get Friday account is the sign-up process is kind of a pain. They make you do a phone verification, which is automated but something normally reserved for banks. Then you have to print, sign, and fax (or email) back a copy of the contract. I haven’t seen those kinds of sign-up requirements from any other VA company.

Your Get Friday virtual assistant is available 5 days a week, during the hours you choose. This is valuable because of the time zone difference between the US and India. Weekend and overtime hours are charged out at 1.5 times your normal hourly rate.

Get Friday Ace

In the summer of 2014, Get Friday introduced Get Friday Ace, a VA service specifically aimed at the small business market.

I think it’s a smart move since they already have the staff and infrastructure in place, and businesses are used to spending money on support services. Get Friday Ace lists web design and development, bookkeeping, marketing and SEO, and other business process tasks among their new menu of services.

Get Friday Alternatives

The Virtual Savvy

Posted by Mica Harvey / Education, Resources/Tools, Virtual Assistant Resources

The Virtual Savvy provides a wide range of resources that helps virtual assistants launch, grow, and scale their Virtual Assistant businesses from scratch.

In addition to free training and resources, The Virtual Savvy offers Virtual Assistants access to a huge community and has a paid course called The SavvySystem.

About The Virtual Savvy

The company is headed up by founder and CEO Abbey Ashley. Before starting The Virtual Savvy, Abbey started out working as a Virtual Assistant herself. She took this path as a way to help balance being at home for her young child and paying the bills.

Abbey ended up with so much work she started paying friends to help her out. As this became more frequent, she realized she needed to take on staff to help her manage her growing business.

This led to her developing processes for growing and managing a VA business. It’s those same processes that she shares today in her course The SavvySystem. Helping others build their own VA business and streamline their processes.

Abbey has also built up a huge community with a Facebook group with more than 67,000 members.Job opportunities are posted daily within her group, helping VAs and business owners looking to outsource tasks connect.

Whether you’re thinking about becoming a VA, want to start an agency, or just want to grow your network and improve your current businesses. You’ll find everything you need within The Virtual Savvy ecosystem.

How The Virtual Savvy Works

The Virtual Savvy has a ‘soft’ sell in terms of its training course. To get started, you can download a free checklist and starter kit. Or join their Facebook community via an opt-in form on their site.

Either option will add you to their email list. You’ll then start receiving information about how you can become a VA, find more clients, and enroll in The SavvySystem.

The best part about The Virtual Savvy is that it’s clear that Abbey has put a lot of time into growing her community. She also gives away a lot of resources and information for free.

So, whether you want to join a paid course or not, if you’re interested in becoming a VA there is plenty for you to learn by joining The Virtual Savvy community.

The Virtual Savvy Services

The Virtual Savvy provides a range of tools, services, and resources to help VAs. When you join the community you can get access to:

The SavvySystem – This is a step-by-step virtual assistant training program that takes you from starting up as a VA to running a full-time business

The Savvy Vault – 50+ free trainings made by experienced VAs.
Community – You can join 65k+ other VAs and business owners and network within a community where everyone shares similar goals.

The Virtual Savvy Plans and Pricing

The Virtual Savvy’s signature VA training course is called The SavvySystem. This course is currently priced at $1,497.

The Virtual Savvy Alternatives

An alternative VA training resource to check out is Outsource School. Outsource School is a platform that gives you access to loads of VA-related training courses and resources created by 8-figure entrepreneurs.

Outsource School doesn’t have the personal touch that The Virtual Savvy is able to offer. But does offer a much wider range of training materials so I recommend taking a look.

Horkey Handbooks is a great option to compare to The Virtual Savvy with their #FullyBookedVA courses.

Horkey Handbook

Posted by Mica Harvey / Education, Resources/Tools, Virtual Assistant Resources

Horkey HandBook is a platform that provides a range of resources to help aspiring virtual assistants start and grow their virtual assistant businesses.

Their flagship program and system is called #FullyBookedVA. Inside this course, you get access to a membership community, weekly group coaching, loads of resources, and connections with business owners looking for VA services.

About Horkey Handbook

Horkey HandBook was created by Gina Horkey. Gina runs the day-to-day operations of the business along with her Operations Manager Stephanie Hayes, and her team of Virtual Assistants.

Gina started Horkey Handbooks in 2014 as a way to showcase her own writing samples as she was growing her own online business.

Since then, it’s grown into a resource for aspiring virtual assistants. As well as for business owners looking to outsource and grow their own businesses.

Horkey Handbooks provides loads of helpful articles and resources, a free service to help connect you with virtual assistants, a membership community, their flagship course #FullyBookedVA System, and much more.

Essentially, Horkey Handbooks is a one-stop destination for VAs looking to grow their own businesses, train in all areas of becoming a VA, connect with like-minded individuals, and find clients to work with.

How Horkey Handbook Works

You can get access to loads of free resources to start growing your VA business by simply choosing a product and entering your email on the Horkey Handbooks website.

There are general guides, ebooks covering the services you can offer as a VA, mini-courses to help you figure out if being a VA is right for you, and loads more.

Their overall program is the #FullyBookedVA System which includes VA Foundations, the skills courses, membership community, group coaching, client leads, and more. This is Horkey Handbook’s paid membership course where you get live group coaching, all of their high-end materials, and the chance to apply for leads that their students can apply to.

Once you sign up for the #FullyBookedVA System you’ll be given a login where you have access to the VA Foundations course, the membership community and weekly group coaching. After you pass the final exam for VA Foundations you unlock access to the rest of the program – client leads, bi-weekly guest expert training, 6 skills courses (we used to sell a la carte) and specialization tracks with coaches to help VAs scale their businesses. You also continue to have access to the membership community and forum.

If you’re on the fence about signing up for the #FullyBookedVA System, there are loads of customer success stories and testimonials from VAs who have taken the course.

Horkey Handbook Plans and Pricing

Horkey Handbooks’ #FullyBookedVA course has two pricing plans:

$497, or three payments of $199 (charged once per month for 90 days)
$1,194 for a years membership

The best value is clearly paying for a year’s membership upfront as you save almost 50%. Although, the 3-month rolling contract is better if you’re not sure about committing for an entire year.

#FullyBookedVA comes with a unique guarantee. If you complete all of the work in the course and do not land your first paying client within 90 days of joining, you can receive a full refund.

Horkey Handbook Alternatives

The Virtual Savvy operates on a similar model to Horkey Handbooks. It’s headed up by Abbey Ashley and also has a membership site, community, and has a paid course.

Monday.com

Posted by Mica Harvey / Resources/Tools

Monday.com is an award-winning cloud-based work operating system (Work OS) that enables teams to collaborate and build custom workflows.

The company is headquartered in Tel Aviv, Israel, and has offices in the US, UK, and Australia.

About Monday.com

The company started operations in 2012 and was founded by co-founders Roy Mann and Eran Zinman.

Like most of the best software solutions, Monday.com was created out of a pain point the founders Roy and Eran were experiencing.

Roy and Eran were business owners, and they faced the same challenges a lot of business owners do when growing their teams – streamlining employee collaboration and communications.

So, they decided to create a solution and Monday.com was born. Monday.com is marketed as a Work OS, which essentially means it’s an all-in-one project management and workflow tool.

It has a long list of features and applications, but the core use of Monday.com is to help large teams work together cohesively.

The software does this by getting everyone onto the same workflow and using the same tools. As a manager, you can track exactly what every team member is working on. Team members can also communicate freely with one another through the platform.

The end result is increased transparency and everyone working on the same page. There are also a number of alerts and key bits of information that get injected right into a person’s workflow.

How Monday.com Works

After you sign up for a free trial and create an account, you can log into the web app. Here, you’ll see a blank calendar and your dashboard.

The calendar and central dashboard are where you can see all of your business’ tasks and employees. It’s here where you can assign tasks to people, track what they’re working on, manage projects, and communicate with team members.

There is a long list of apps and third-party integrations, too. You can integrate popular tools like Salesforce, Hubspot, and Google’s suite of tools into Monday.com’s workflow.

There is powerful analytics on the backend. You can track employee productivity, keep an eye on budgets, set your own KPIs, and lots more.

Monday.com Features

Monday.com is a Work OS platform. Broadly speaking, it provides the following features:

Collaboration tools – You can onboard your whole organization and manage all of your team’s workflows seamlessly via a single source of truth.
Drag and drop – It’s designed to be simple to use with no coding experience required. You can drag and drop most of the elements.
Integrate tools and apps – You can connect all of the other third-party tools and external sources of data you currently use.
Data visualization and analytics – With all of your data flowing through one dashboard, you can gather meaningful insights into performance and key business metrics.
Security – You can set permissions and governance features to ensure the right people are seeing the right information. Making it easy to keep sensitive data private.

Monday.com Plans and Pricing

Monday.com currently has three monthly pricing plans. Their pricing is based on a price per ‘seat’(team members) and the features you want.

There is a minimum of 3 seats per plan, so pricing starts at $24/mo for 3 team members on their basic plan.

A complete list of their plans at the time of publishing is:

Basic – $8/seat per month starting at $24/mo
Standard – $10/seat per month starting at $10/mo
Pro – $16/seat per month starting at $48/mo
Enterprise – Custom pricing on request.

Each plan unlocks more of Monday.com’s features, such as the number of automation and integration actions you can perform per month. The main feature most teams will be interested in, however, is the number of boards you can integrate into the central dashboard.

This is where the Basic plan is limited, as you can only create a dashboard based on 1 board. The number of boards increases to 5 with the Standard plan, 20 with the Pro plan, and 50 with the Enterprise plan.

Monday.com offers a 14-day free trial (no credit card needed), so I recommend testing out the platform if you’re interested.

Monday.com Alternatives

Monday.com is one of the most comprehensive project management tools on the market.

If it’s just tracking employee productivity that is important to you, check out employee productivity tools like DeskTime and MyTimeIn.

Copywriter Today

Posted by Mica Harvey / Content Writing Services, Resources/Tools, Task-Based Virtual Assistants

Copywriter Today is a content creation service based in Cleveland, Ohio. The company was founded in 2014 by Gabe Arnold and aims to provide small businesses and bloggers with top-quality written content on an ongoing basis.

The team has grown to over 60 people and continues to grow rapidly year over year. They provide native English writers based in the US.

Their “claim to fame” is their “unlimited” writing service.

Business owners who want to beat their competitors and rank higher in search engines use Copywriter Today to take the pain out of content creation. They write content that aligns with your brand’s voice and style with our streamlined, customizable process.

Copywriter Today Services

CopywriterToday.net offers unlimited content writing services, editing and proofreading on a monthly subscription basis.

Along those lines, the actual deliverables are often blog posts ranging from 400 to 3,000 words, lead magnets, sales letters, emails, copy for brochures, or content for press releases.

I’ve found that Google seems to value recency quite a bit in their algorithm, meaning that with all else equal, the more recently published article will be ranked higher. Where Copywriter Today comes in is by supplying you with a steady stream of content to keep your site up-to-date.

I know the publish date is something I definitely pay attention to when I arrive on a new site, and when nothing has been updated in a couple years, it throws up a red flag — like, “Is this company even still in business?”

After completing the Copywriter Today BME Content Blueprint process, and selecting your word count package, the monthly content process is as follows:

Your Copywriter Today project manager will place your orders for the content you need for the month.
Then their team of writers create the content.
Each piece of content is fully edited by a professional US-based editor.

Fiverr Learn

Posted by Mica Harvey / Education, Resources/Tools

Fiverr Learn is an e-learning platform from the team behind Fiverr, one of the world’s largest freelance marketplaces.

Not anyone can post a course on Fiverr Learn, however. The platform consists only of a select group of experts in their respective industries.

About Fiverr Learn

Fiver Learn started operations in 2018. Unlike the freelance marketplace, Fiverr, their Learn platform is restricted to a group of curated experts in their fields.

This means you are guaranteed to get only the highest quality of training.

Fiverr is pushing these courses pretty hard. If you browse for courses over on Fiverr, you’ll find yourself being redirected to Fiverr Learn.

When you complete a training course on Fiverr Learn, you get a badge added to your Fiverr profile. If you’re a seller, this demonstrates to customers that you’ve taken a course.

The idea is that this will help you stand out from the other sellers. Which, on such a competitive platform as Fiverr is a great idea.

How Fiverr Learn Works

The user interface for Fiverr Learn is very similar to Fiverr. You can browse courses by category, then you’ll see all the courses under that category.

Most of the courses are in the 1-2 hours range. They’re broken down into smaller videos, typically just a few minutes each. You can view a small sample and read the course syllabus before making a decision.

When you’ve found a course you want to buy, click the ‘Buy Course’ button to unlock the content. You can then work through the course material at your own pace.

Fiverr Learn Services

Fiverr Learn is an e-learning platform providing online training. Where Fiverr Learn differs from other learning platforms is that the instructors have been handpicked to create content for the platform.

At the time of publishing, the platform had around 47 tutors listed. Some of the more notable instructors include:

Jon Youshaei – Writer for Time Magazine and listed by Forbes as one of the world’s top marketers.

Kelly Murphy – SEO, author, and digital marketer with 10+ years of experience working with Big Four holding and Fortune 500 companies.

Ian Cleary – Listed as Onalytica as one of the top 50 content marketers globally.

Michael Hunt – Freelance graphic designer who has worked with Oakley, Nike, Fender, and other leading brands.

Maya Yizhaky – A mindfulness coach running a 7-figure media empire.

The courses offered cover the following categories:

Marketing
Graphic Design
Website
Writing
Business
Video and Photography
Programs

As you can see, the instructors invited to work with Fiverr Learn are highly successful industry experts. This means you’re getting high-quality training from experts with a good deal of industry experience.

Fiverr Learn Plans and Pricing

Individual courses range from $23-$94.

Fiverr Learn also offers what they call ‘programs’, which is essentially a bundle of courses at a discounted price.

At the time of publishing, Fiverr Learn was offering discounted prices, their programs ranged from $60-$150 for up to 10 courses bundled up.

Fiverr Learn Alternatives

Fiverr Learn has positioned itself differently in the market by using a smaller pool of specialist instructors.

This does mean they cannot cover as many topics as other platforms though. If you cannot find the course topic you’re looking for on Fiverr Learn, or if you just want to browse an alternative platform, check out Outsource School or Lead Academy.

Your Turn

Have you taken any courses with
