Client Info

Compare the cost to working with Primo Assistance to a full-time, in-office assistant:

What is the actual cost of a full-time, in-office assistant?

Assume the minimum of $25 per hour at 40 hours per week.

Over the course of the year, you are spending over $48,000 on salary alone.  Add in the cost of health insurance, taxes, 401K, etc. at approximately 30-40% of salary and you are spending over $68,000 for your full-time, in-house employee.

Don’t forget the less obvious, and difficult to quantify, expenses such as overhead related to time and money spent filling and training your position, the cost of computers and other office technology, office space, lunch hours, sick and vacation pay, and numerous wasted, non-productive hours on the clock.

Compare the cost of working with a Virtual Assistant

With a Virtual Assistant you don’t pay for lunch hours, sick leave, or vacation pay; and there is no such thing as paid down-time because a VA invoices only for the exact time spent working on your projects.  There is no need to supply a Virtual Assistant with a computer or other expensive office equipment because a professional Virtual Assistant operates a fully functional home office.  And, as an independent contractor, a Virtual Assistant handles her own taxes and benefits.  There is no additional cost to you beyond the actual rate at which you contract your virtual service provider.

With a Virtual Assistant, you are cutting overhead and increasing productivity because a VA works for you only if and when you require it.  And, because a Virtual Assistant is skilled in providing virtual administrative services, there is no training period, so you have more time for your own clients.  To learn more about how Primo Assistance can assist you, please contact us.
