How much does a Marketing Virtual Assistant cost?

‍

Virtual Assistants are highly attractive to business owners looking to scale primarily due to their low price. At present, VAs are typically available from $3 per hour all the way up to $25 per hour depending upon their location & level of expertise.

At Inside Insight, we give our clients the ability to work with Virtual Assistants starting from $480 per month or $4 per hour depending upon their budget & needs.

‍

Limitations of Marketing Virtual Assistants?

‍

Virtual Assistants are indeed excellent additions to teams looking to scale fast & inexpensively, however, they do have their limitations.

Virtual Assistants are generally workers that will be working under the guidance of a manager or business owner.

Whilst being very attractive in terms of pricing, you can't expect a $4/hour  VA to have the self-initiative necessary to build out a 5x ROAS Facebook Ad Campaign.

If that's what you're looking for, then it'd be more fitting for you to hire a marketing manager instead.

Virtual Assistants are individuals that are able to scale existing systems further, and that's exactly how they should be used, under the guidance of someone that's able to scale systems out.
