    What Does a Admin Assistant Do?

    Hire an Admin Assistant who handles the day-to-day so you don't have to. Scheduling, data entry, document management, and communicationsall covered in your US business hours.

    The problem: You're spending your evenings doing tasks that aren't your job booking meetings, cleaning up inboxes, formatting documents, chasing vendors. Admin work is expanding to fill all available time, and it's pulling you away from the work that actually grows your business. You need someone reliable who shows up every day, knows your preferences, and clears your plate without constant supervision.

    Admin Assistant FAQ

    Common questions from US businesses hiring a remote Admin Assistant.

    Calendar management and scheduling, email filtering and drafting responses, data entry and spreadsheet work, document creation and formatting, travel booking, vendor follow-ups, expense tracking, file organization, and basic research.

    Yes. Inbox management filtering, prioritizing, drafting replies for your review, and archiving is a core function. You agree on a response protocol during onboarding.

    Text-based inbox and scheduling work is primary. For live inbound calls, pair with a Chat Support Agent or Customer Support Agent.

    Basic social media posting, connection requests, and message follow-ups are within scope. For full social media strategy and management, pair with a Social Media Manager.

    Google Workspace, Microsoft Office 365, Notion, Asana, Trello, Slack, Zoom, Calendly, and most scheduling and project tools. If you have a specific stack, they adapt.

    Whatever system you already use Slack, Asana, email, Notion. We build a task intake SOP during onboarding so requests are submitted clearly and turnaround is agreed upfront.

    Yes. Basic bookkeeping tasks logging expenses, tracking invoices, and preparing expense reports are within scope. For full accounting work, pair with a dedicated bookkeeper.

    Most operators start with 80h/month (Part-Time) enough for 20 hours/week of admin support. If you're delegating heavily and want a full-time operations partner, 160h/month gives you a fully dedicated assistant. 40h/month works for light overflow support.
