Buizoffiz

UPDATE: It appears Buizoffic is out of business. Please consider one of these alternatives.

Buizoffiz is a virtual assistant company based in Chennai, India. They are a relatively new company in the virtual assistant space, starting operations in March of 2015.

They aim to provide virtual assistant services to business owners and entrepreneurs. Offering an extensive list of the services covered in their plans.

Not sure how to pronounce their name? Yeah, me neither.

About Buizoffiz

The founder of Buizoffiz (who apparently wishes to remain anonymous) formerly worked at Habiliss. After leaving in January 2015 he started work forming his own company, Buizoffiz. He officially launched the company in March, and to-date has assembled a team of 13 staff based in their Chennai office.

The company also has developers and designers based in Berlin and the US working remotely.

One thing I thought was a little shady was on their website, their client list looked eerily similar Zirtual’s. And by eerily similar, I mean exactly the same. Take a look and see what you think.

When I called them on this, they quickly updated the image, but if they’re faking their social proof how can we know they’re going to be honest in other areas of their business?

Services

According to Alex Michael, who heads up Business Development for Buizoffiz, the company’s unique selling proposition is in their extensive list of services. While a lot of virtual assistant companies summarize their services or put them under general headers, Buizoffiz lists all the individual services they cover, giving prospective clients the confidence that they handle the exact tasks they are looking to outsource.

The company supplies virtual assistants who are trained in a wide range of areas, and handle tasks like calendar management, research and reservations, bookkeeping, and managing your inbox.

I also appreciated them specifically listing out the tasks they DON’T do, like content creation, design, inbound call answering, sales, or SEO.

They are also planning to launch a new service called Analytics. This is a service targeted at small companies who can’t or do not have their own in-house business analyst. Their Analytics service pulls raw data from the client and processes it through their own dashboard, giving the client a clear summary of their information without the need for their own systems or any technical knowledge.

Plans and Pricing

Buizoffiz have four different pricing plans to choose from.

The Basic package starts at $350 a month and is targeted at individual business owners who are starting to outsource some tasks. For this price you get 40 hours of virtual assistant time covering secretarial, administrative, bookkeeping, and content creation. You get your own dedicated assistant with Skype support.

The Standard package is $700 a month, and is targeted at busy professionals. This package offers all the services in the basic package along with 80 hours of time and graphic design support.

While their Business package is $1000 a month and tailored for small companies and startups. This package gives you 120 hours of assistant time with the added features of transcribing and BBM/Whatsapp support.

One interesting element is they also offer a pay-as-you-go option that’s listed at $2 per task, which would be cheaper than Fancy Hands and similar to Efficise, but without the monthly subscription.

This allows the client the flexibility to submit tasks on an ad-hoc basis and pay for the amount of tasks they submit.

Buizoffiz Alternatives

Aside from Fancy Hands and Efficise mentioned above, I see companies like It’s VA Time and VA Talks with a similar suite of services.

My Tasker is another virtual assistant company based in India with similarly priced packages that I would check out.
