Step 4: After the meeting, you confirm whether you would like to move forward with the contract.
Step 5: The contract and other documents are sent to you via email for your e-signature.
Step 6: Once everything has been agreed and signed, you are free to start sending work to your new team member!
And our support doesn't stop there! Throughout our partnership, Naomi remains available to ensure you are receiving the high-quality service we promised.

FAQ
When is the right time to hire a virtual assistant?
Business owners hire virtual assistants when 1) their admin load distracts them from generating income, 2) they want to spread their workload more efficiently and 3) they want to focus on specific areas of their business. If you can see yourself in one of those above scenarios, we would love to hear from you! Please feel free to fill in the contact form and we will get in touch and answer any further questions you may have.
Is it cheaper to hire a virtual assistant than an employee?
In our experience, yes! You only pay for the hours your virtual assistant works. You do not pay for their insurance, tax or pension contributions. You don’t need to worry about sick pay nor holiday pay. Virtual assistants pay for their own office space and equipment. Hiring a virtual assistant is an affordable way to scale your business in a sustainable manner.
I need admin help but I don’t want to share my passwords with you.
That’s no problem! We are happy to use Keeper, an online password manager that grants access to programmes, without the need to reveal passwords. Please rest assured however that our solicitor-drafted contract clearly explains how the data you share with us is protected and regulated. We will never share your confidential data to third parties.
I need admin help but I have my own way of doing things.
We understand and we are happy to do things your way. During our initial consultation, we will discuss how we can meet your business needs in a way that you are comfortable with. We are able to replicate any system you already have in place. Please rest assured that our priority is to make your life easier. You define what works best for you.
How are Calibre virtual assistants different from other brands?
One word: expertise. Each Calibre virtual assistant is an expert in their own field. For example, for invoicing support, we provide you with a qualified bookkeeper, highly experienced in most accounting software. For social media tasks, we outsource our formally qualified Social Media Managers. The same high-level of expertise goes for PA tasks, including inbox management.
