Rates

We currently work under a retainer agreement, payable in advance of each month. This is a flat monthly fee, so there aren’t any hidden costs or surprises, and everything we do is billed at the same rate, so there isn’t any confusion.

Being on retainer elevates you to a priority status client and ensures time in our schedule, and allows allows us to ensure a certain amount of hours per week or month for our VAs.  And, since you’re not paying the costs for a full time employee (taxes, insurance, benefits, office equipment, lost time, etc.), you will see a true cost savings.
