I hired Remote Raven to source, onboard, and support dedicated virtual assistants (VAs) across multiple areas of our business.

Over our time working together, their scope of work has spanned several distinct roles, including: 

• Administrative Support: Sourcing a dedicated Personal Assistant.
• Customer Relations: Providing a Customer Service Representative to handle client inquiries. 
• Media Production: Matching us with a skilled Video Editor for content creation.
• Financial Management: Securing virtual accounting services.

Beyond the initial hiring phase, Remote Raven’s scope includes ongoing staff management. They actively support, educate, and train the virtual assistants they place, ensuring they integrate smoothly into our daily operations.

Key Deliverables

Remote Raven consistently met all of our business requirements by delivering:

• Highly Qualified Talent: Pre-vetted, college-graduate virtual assistants who possessed the exact skills required for each specialized role.
• Turnkey Onboarding & Education: Ongoing training, professional development, and support for the hired staff, which significantly reduced our management overhead.
• Reliable Client Support: Attentive service that aligned perfectly with our operational needs.

Their consistent delivery and high-quality placements have made me a repeat client and gave me the confidence to refer numerous other businesses to them.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

• Massive Time Savings: By delegating our administrative, customer service, video editing, and accounting tasks to dedicated virtual assistants, I have reclaimed a significant portion of my workweek to focus on high-level business growth.
• Unbeatable Cost Efficiency: The service is highly affordable. It allowed us to staff four distinct roles at a fraction of the cost of hiring even one local, full-time employee.
• Increased Operational Efficiency: Our daily tasks and workflows run much more smoothly and quickly now that we have dedicated specialists handling each area.

Describe their project management. Did they deliver items on time? How did they respond to your needs?

• Proactive, Ongoing Management: Their project management style is highly hands-on. Because they continuously support the VA's were easy to manage and bring up to speed.  

What was your primary form of communication with Remote Raven?

• Virtual Meeting
• Email or Messaging App

What did you find most impressive or unique about this company?

What is most impressive and unique about Remote Raven is their company culture and the high level of integrity they bring to how they treat their virtual assistants.

• Active Community-Building: Unlike agencies that simply place a virtual assistant and leave them "on an island," Remote Raven consistently fosters a vibrant, supportive community for their VAs so they never feel isolated in a remote work environment.
• Genuine Support and Integrity: They invest heavily in their people. By prioritizing the well-being and professional growth of their staff, they ensure the VAs feel valued and motivated.
• A Human-First Approach: Their dedication to caring for their employees directly translates to happier, highly loyal VAs who perform at a much higher level for our business.

Knowing that our VAs have a strong, ongoing support system behind them gives us incredible peace of mind and sets Remote Raven completely apart from other staffing firms.

None!!! I have zero complaints on how they do things!

Their communication has been excellent, they have delivered quality employees, and they've been responsive whenever we've needed additional support. If I had to mention one area, it would simply be that as our company continues to grow, we'd love to see them expand their talent pool even further so they can continue filling specialized roles as quickly as they have for our current positions. Other than that, we have been extremely satisfied with the partnership and look forward to continuing to work with them.
