FAQ's
What is a virtual professional?
A virtual professional or VP (traditionally known as virtual assistant) is a professional who provides administrative, technical, creative, or specialized support services remotely, typically from a home office or remote work location. They have become increasingly popular as businesses seek cost-effective, flexible support without the need for physical office space. This role suits small businesses, startups, and executives who want to delegate routine or specialized tasks to focus on core activities.
Hiring a virtual professional offers numerous benefits that help businesses and entrepreneurs optimize their operations and improve work-life balance. Key advantages include:
- Cost-Effectiveness: Hiring a virtual professional is less expensive than employing full-time staff as wages are lower in countries such as the Philippines and you avoid costs like employment taxes, fringe benefits, office space, and equipment.
- Time Savings: Virtual professionals take over routine and time-consuming administrative tasks such as scheduling, email management, and data entry, freeing up valuable time for business owners to focus on strategic priorities.
- Increased Efficiency and Productivity: Virtual professionals often have specialized skills and experience, enabling faster and higher-quality completion of tasks, which boosts overall productivity and reduces the burden on existing staff.
- Scalability and Flexibility: Virtual professionals allow businesses to quickly scale operations up or down without the complexities of traditional hiring.
- 24/7 Customer Service Capability: By hiring virtual professionals in different time zones, businesses can provide around-the-clock customer support without overburdening local staff.
- Improved Work-Life Balance and Emotional Well-Being: Delegating routine tasks helps reduce stress and burnout for business owners, enabling them to maintain better health and focus on growth.
- Easy Replacement and Hiring: The global pool of virtual professionals makes it easier and faster to find replacements or additional help compared to traditional employees.
In summary, hiring a virtual professional can save time and money, increase operational efficiency, provide access to specialized skills, and improve both business outcomes and personal well-being for entrepreneurs and companies.

With a commitment to excellence, we specialize in providing dedicated and skilled virtual professionals across a spectrum of roles including executive/administrative assistant, accounting/bookkeeping, e-commerce, marketing, sales, cold calling, email campaigns, website/social media management, inbound/outbound calling, appointment setting, medical billing, medical receptionist, patient care coordinator, IT support and many others. Let us know your niche, and we’ll match you with the right professional.
Our professionals support US/CAN/UK/Australian standard working hours and time zones so they will always be available when your business is running.
Our professionals are perfectly fluent in English as we only source English-speaking talent. The Philippines is known for its flourishing business outsourcing industry, and its growth can be attributed in part to the fact that Filipinos are great English speakers and writers. Each applicant is required to submit an audio recording introducing themselves and to take an English test to ensure they can speak, write and understand English. During the applicant screening process, this information is shared with the client.
Yes! After we source an applicant pool for your role, we typically present you with 3 – 4 candidates to interview so that you can get to know their background and personality more. But don’t worry! We never provide candidates to interview whom we aren’t extremely confident that you’ll like! If you don’t like working with one of our professionals, we quickly find a replacement to support your role.
All our professionals have a computer, printer, office space, Microsoft 365 Suite and/or Google Workspace, and internet service that meet our quality standards. In addition, PillarVP offers a time management software system for all its professionals to use to provide a detailed account of all hours worked. If your company has specific software, such as a CRM, accounting system, etc., you will need to provide them professional company access. Also, if you require the professional to handle inbound and/or outbound calling, then you would need to provide access to your VOIP phone system.
Almost all our professionals have bachelor’s degrees or more from accredited universities, but sometimes we source amazing candidates with years of experience in their field who have proven expertise without a degree.
Pricing depends on the required professional’s expertise, experience, and skill set for your company specific role.
Here’s a general breakdown of hourly rates based on the level of expertise:
- $8-10 USD/hour – Entry level, 1-2 years of experience
- $11-13 USD/hour – Intermediate level, 3-5+ years of experience
- $14+ USD/hour – Expert level, 5-7+ years of experience
For some more advanced skill set positions the hourly rates may be higher. During the initial discovery call we can provide a better cost estimate once we know the exact expertise, experience and skill set you require.
The minimum number of hours you can hire a professional for is 20 hours of work per week or 80 hours of work per month.
First, please tell us about your business by filling out a short survey and schedule a discovery call. Next, our recruitment experts will meet with you to better understand your needs. We’ll then select and present 3–4 top candidates for you to interview. Once you choose the best candidate, your new virtual professional will be ready to start.
Once approved for hire, PillarVP conducts an initial 3-hour onboarding session. This onboarding ensures the professional is fully prepared to begin working with the client. However, just like when you hire a regular employee, they’ll need to go through your training and on-boarding to understand your business, processes, and expectations. If you need help, contact our team and we will provide support, strategy guidance, and resources to make training and on-boarding easier.
