How your remote virtual assistant Portland OR works
Portland is Oregon's largest city and a hub for technology, outdoor apparel, sustainability, healthcare and creative industries. Key local sectors are technology and software, outdoor gear and apparel, food and beverage, healthcare, and professional services. Nike, Adidas North America, Columbia Sportswear and Intel all have major operations in the Portland metro. Technology businesses need CRM management, vendor research and report formatting. Outdoor and apparel businesses need product admin, supplier management and marketing scheduling. Food and beverage businesses need recipe documentation, supplier admin and event scheduling. Healthcare businesses need scheduling and records admin. Your VA handles all of these task types. Shifts run on Pacific Time so your VA is there when your Portland 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.
