A: Payscale shows a wide range of pay for virtual assistants, depending on their skill level, years of experience, industry, and clientele. The range is $22,000 to $60,000 per year. Hourly virtual assistant pay ranges from $10.75 to $27.46, with a median hourly rate of about $17.

A: Virtual Assistants are in demand, and even without experience, you don't need to be a veteran, you can become a virtual assistant and build your career. As an aspiring Virtual Assistant, you can't expect work to just magically appear.

A: At this time we accept Paypal, Venmo, CashApp, and CPNTCoin. We plan to incorporate additional forms of payment in the near future (i.e. Stripe, 2CheckOut, etc.).

A: Communication. Many business relationships, especially VA/client ties, suffer from poor communication. With the communication's emphasis on technology rather than face-to-face interaction, the nature of remote employment might create extra communication barriers if not given attention.

A: Virtual assisting is a side hustle that can pay as much as $100 an hour—here's how to get started. Side hustles have long been a favorite American way to make extra cash. Virtual assisting can bring in as much as $100 per hour

A: Exceptional Communication Skills
Ability to Meet Deadlines
Detail-Oriented Skills
Self Motivation


A: When starting off as a virtual assistant, it can be hard to land your first clients. These first clients are very vital to your success as a freelancer, as they will give that much-needed motivation to keep going.

A: Virtual assistants are in high demand because, with remote workers, there is less churn. And if a virtual assistant does step away, it is typically less costly to replace them with someone with a similar set of skills than it is to replace a traditional employee.

A: It's not necessarily how much a VA knows, but the traits he or she has. Clients want VA's that are organized, clear communicators, not afraid to ask questions, and detail oriented. They want someone they can trust with their sensitive information and that will treat their business like it's their own.

A: As a virtual assistant, you'll enjoy consistent, flexible schedules with shifts that can accommodate your specific needs and lifestyle. You'll also get generous vacation and personal leave, including 26 paid days off, 13 sick days, and 10 paid federal holidays. Take advantage of on-site perks like dining facilities and fitness centers.

A: Data entry virtual assistants or remote data entry clerks will enter and compile information such as inputting customer account data onto spreadsheets and checking data for errors.
