How your remote virtual assistant Columbus OH works
Columbus is Ohio's state capital and largest city, and one of the growing major cities in the Midwest. Key local sectors are financial services and insurance, technology, healthcare, education, and retail and e-commerce. Nationwide, JPMorgan Chase, L Brands and Alliance Data are major Columbus employers. Financial services businesses need compliance records, report formatting and correspondence management. Technology businesses need CRM management, vendor research and report formatting. Healthcare and education businesses need scheduling and records admin. Retail and e-commerce businesses need supplier admin, product research and order management support. Your VA handles all of these task types. Shifts run on Eastern Time so your VA is there when your Columbus office is open.
Your VA uses the tools you already have — Gmail, Outlook, Slack, Asana or Trello. They do not make outbound calls. All work goes through a team lead check before it reaches you.
