A managed service, not a marketplace. Six steps; the longest ones being the calls. 01 ### Share what’s on your plate. Book a 30 minute discovery call. We walk through your work, your priorities, and what you want to hand off first. This helps us find the right plan for you. 02 ### Kick off with your account manager. Once you’re subscribed, your dedicated account manager gets on a call with just you. This is where we go deeper: your personality, your workflows, how you think, how you communicate, and exactly how you like work done. Everything we need to find the right fit. 03 ### Matched. Based on your kickoff, we select the professional whose background, working style, and experience align with yours. If something feels off, we rematch. No drama. 04 ### Get introduced. Your assistant introduces themselves and you take it from there. Schedule a call, hop on a Zoom, or just start working. There’s no forced process, just a real introduction on your terms. 05 ### Get integrated. Share access, fill out your notes, drop in your first tasks. Your assistant gets to work. Your account manager stays close. 06 ### Find your rhythm. Daily handoffs. Weekly check-ins. Your account manager keeps things moving so nothing falls through the cracks.
