Save Up to 80% Compared to Hiring in the United States
Hiring locally in the US can mean higher wages, payroll taxes, benefits, equipment, office costs, recruiting time, and management overhead. A virtual assistant can help you handle daily business tasks at a much lower remote staffing cost.
| Item | US Employee | Virtual Assistant |
|---|---|---|
| Typical hourly cost | $25 - $50/hr US | From $4 USD/hr |
| Monthly cost (full-time) | $4,500 - $8,500 | $700 - $2,500 |
| Payroll taxes / benefits | Required | Not required |
| Office / equipment | You provide | VA covers |
| Hiring time | 4 - 8 weeks | Days, not weeks |
| Part-time flexibility | Limited | Hourly or full-time |
| Time-zone options | Local only | EST, CST, MST, PST or overnight |
| Replacement flexibility | Hard | Easy via marketplace |
For many US businesses, the biggest savings come from outsourcing repeatable admin, customer support, sales support, marketing, bookkeeping support, e-commerce, and operations tasks.
