Hire VA believes that in the business space, assistants need to be dedicated in order to deliver high quality. Therefore, your Hire VA assistants are dedicated to your account, and so while 24/7 coverage is available, it's not our main offering. Hire VA, by default, is available 8 hours a day, 5 days a week. You choose the 8 hour window, and that window can be anytime, but it must be a "solid" block, i.e. no breaking up the 8 hours.

"I felt like I could tackle
anything with Hire VA"
Running my 9 person engineering team was a nightmare before Hire VA - I used to be in the office dealing with customer support issues and keeping my team informed - but ever since I gave the reins to Hire VA, my customer support is handled, my employees are informed of what needs to be done - and I can go home by 6pm feeling at ease.
