Rates

Virtual Assistants (VAs) generally charge by the hour, anywhere from $25-75, depending upon the expertise required and type of work performed. For example, copy typing would be estimated at the low end of this scale, whereas web design would be found at the high end. Statistics show that employees actually cost 2 to 2 1/2 times their rate of pay when one adds in all the “hidden costs” associated with adding a new employee to the payroll:

• hiring (may include advertising, recruiting, interviewing/assessing, recruiter’s own time, and redoing it all over again if the person doesn’t work out)
• training (may involve expensive seminars or  training sessions and also a “ramp-up” period)
• setting up payroll
• government taxes
• base salary
• bonuses
• profit sharing or RRSP contribution
• yearly cost of living increase
• benefits
• mandatory insurance
• space
• office equipment/furniture.

Once you take all these expenses into account, it’s obvious that you are SAVING money in the long run.  Once you have established a working relationship with a VA, you know you can call on her once a week or once a month, as your needs arise.
