  1. Consider the range of work responsibilities and tasks that you wish to delegate. Also consider the current time required for you or your internal staff manage those itemized workflow tasks.
  2. Quantify the time savings, enhanced productivity, or replacement capacity value on the items that you’ve determined are able to be delegated to a virtual assistant.
  3. Consider your monthly cash flow, gross and net revenue metrics vs operational expenses. If there is room to invest $800-$1,700 per month to augment, grow, replace, enhance, or improve your human capacity for a more efficient operation, then allocate that budget. Quantify that investment cost in an annual/recurring monthly overlay, and commit to it in order to see it through.
  4. Consider and measure how this operational expense, can unlock revenue generating value, by freeing up other human capital to work more efficiently on revenue generating activity.
  5. If you’re looking for more quality and a consistent presence, consider full-time or 30/hr per week placements.

cancellation clause, thus not keeping you bound to a contract in the traditional sense. There are no
penalties for cancellation therefore removing any other restraint normally found in a traditional service

For Bi-lingual Spanish/English VAs, we primarily source our agents from Colombia. Colombia has a large regional population, a highly educated and experienced younger and mid-aged middle class, while having great English language skills when compared to regional peers. We do go outside of Colombia, depending on the project requirements, and can source from Mexico, Central America, Argentina & Brazil, and Venezuela.

For English-Only VAs, we exclusively source from the Philippines. The Philippines has a very large population, with exceptional English skills compared to any other non-English speaking country. The pool of talent with Call Center/VA experience is notable, across various regions of the country, thus affording the discovery of great talent. There’s a reason why the Philippines is #1 in the world for the Call Center industry, and small businesses as well should begin to further leverage the value of working with talented remote Filipinos.

Yes! We do offer Bilingual Spanish/English speakers. It’s one of our strengths to provide you with the most qualified, talented, top Spanish/English speakers to work for your business.

Free and open-ended video meetings can be coordinated for you if there is a desire to be involved in the selection process.

The top three (3) primary factors that govern our approach to selection, is English, Skills & Experience, and Professionalism.

Within the English segment, we ensure to find the best English speakers available at the given cost levels of the various packages included. We do thorough interview screenings on video to test for clear articulation, clarity of thought, speed of delivery, and sound pronunciation. We also test for writing comprehension, sentence structure, and speed of reading. On the English classification scale, we tend to look for only mid-to high B2, C1, and C2 levels. In house testing for this is given in order to measure and quantify English-level standards.

For Skills and Experience, we look for depth of experience, longevity and diversity of experiences, specific skill sets possessed, competencies and challenges of the previous work experiences, Thorough screening of background experiences allow us to walk in the shoes of the person’s life, and determine their standing in our qualitative human analysis scale. Appropriate discernment of these elements help towards placing the right talent for the right client and job. We seek insights into their attentiveness to detail and foster around this subject to uncover further insights into experience factors

For the element of Professionalism, we look for strong personalities that carry confidence, ability, and energy. We but also have the knack to discover the quiet yet innately powerful personalities that add significant productivity and reliability, while maintaining a more quiet demeanor. We like to foster excellence, dependability, ethics and responsibility in the way we carry ourselves individually, and how that extends towards placing upmost value in the client relationship. All agents will come with these intangibles as part of their experience with LOGOS Virtual Assistants.
There are normally two different angles to approach this question:
  • The Client takes ownership of their own ecosystem, and implements any set of tools or manual checks to ensure an assigned virtual assistant are properly doing their jobs. Due to the circumstances of the client exposing the VA to broad and detailed internal workflows that are normally not fully shared entirely to the account manager of the service provider, only the client will directly know the nature and quality of the work output required. Having agents signed in to your internal CRMs and Time platforms can help to fully integrate them into your ecosystem and thus you would have more operational control on manually checking for yourself to know if a VA is working or not.
 
  • The client asks the Service Provider to service them with reliability checks that the VA is working. LOGOS Virtual Assistants can help with this by providing the client with admin/management access to remote tracking tools like Time Doctor or Hubstaff. A small additional fee of $50 is assessed monthly for the inclusion of these services for each VA on a given project. Management can waive these fees on a case-by-case basis depending on the project, and often times include it within the service if hiring two or more VAs.


The above two points are primarily for how to understand if specific or core operational workflows are being done by the VA. Separately, LOGOS Virtual Assistants does require that all contracted Virtual Assistants report in and out of work on each given day within our own internal platforms, so we do assess their daily presence and punctuality, and track all absences and deviations accordingly. We also put to use the same software’s mentioned, Time Doctor and Hubstaff.
Yes! We take a consultative approach and discuss and execute your human capital needs for your scalability objectives. We will take a proactive approach as if constructing a BPO (Business Process Outsourcing) project, and customize a detailed proposal and Scope of Work for the organization of your new team of Virtual Assistants
We check for the operational integrity and reliability of home computer equipment, headsets, Internet Service Provider, Connectivity Speed and Capacity, and Electricity Reliability. We thoroughly understand the home environment of the working VA, their living conditions, proximity to noise our outside noise factors, and assess weak points for quality that we then address and mitigate within an onboarding process. We also assist agents to amplify noise reduction by installing Krisp noise cancelling software, and ensure clarity, crispness, and diction are well managed within the equipment being used by the virtual assistant.
We treat our agents like adults. We hire responsible people, and therefore we extend them the courtesy of a work-life balance that affords them the dignity of self-responsibility. You the client, who are managing them on a day-to-day basis, will have the primary impact on their work environment. They will operate under your management and supervision, stresses in your office extend to them, and the natural pressures and challenges of your business will also extend to your virtual assistant

What we do is to remind them frequently of why they are there, offer them support on the back-end, motivating incentives to keep them enthusiastic about their roles with your business, and offer skill development programs and courses to keep them sharp and continuously evolving professionally. We strive to keep people in our umbrella, and give them reasons to stay for the long-term and not consider alternative options.

Our work environment is essentially entrepreneurial in nature, sophisticated in its interactions, with a strong self-responsibility ethics template.

We strive for the universal principles of Order, Reason, and Logic, the essence of LOGOS.

No! A client cannot have their assigned virtual assistant work for, or do any recurring delegated tasks, on- behalf of an outside party not related to the contracting client. A client can have the VA work for any staff member of the contracting client, and can have them working with any number of people within their own ecosystem. They just can’t be shared with any other outside entities
You have the flexibility to adjust your package, within reason. For example, you can’t switch from full-time to part-time, and then back again, repeatedly and consistently over the course of a year. We ask that you consider the stability of the assigned agent and the client-vendor relationship, and do your best to choose the best package up front and commit to it.

However, we do understand that dynamics can change and you may need to scale up a VA’s hours, or scale down. You are afforded the ability to do this on request. Depending on the impact to the stability factor of an assigned agent, LOGOS Virtual Assistants reserves the right to swap or replace agents that may be more suitably aligned to the adjusted package cost.
Yes. Assigned agents can be requested to come with outside phone access, and even customized to a specific area code if needed. This is if you plan on having the virtual assistant handle client intake and outbound calls from their own phone ecosystem, that we will provide them to service your account.

Most clients however choose to integrate the virtual assistants into their own phone ecosystems, assigning them phone software access thus not requiring them to come with an outside phone platform. This allows a more complete control and management of the phone ecosystem and businesses normally choose to integrate VAs. If you’re cost conscious and/or have limitations in your own phone ecosystem, we can have the virtual assistant fully ready and operating with their own platform.

No! We do not charge any additional fees for the recruitment, selection, onboarding, or management/supervision process. Our fees are collected within the structure of the monthly pricing. So you get one clear monthly cost, and in return you’ll get a full-service experience.
