Is there a minimum commitment?
Yes. We start with a 3-month minimum to allow for onboarding, ramp-up, and measurable results. After that, you can adjust or extend based on your needs.
What if my Crew Assistant isn’t the right fit?
We offer one free replacement within the first few months to ensure you find the perfect match.
What makes Crew Assistants different from freelancers?
Crew Assistants are full-time employees - not contractors. They receive benefits, training, and work in structured environments, resulting in better reliability, retention, and performance.
Where are Crew Assistants located?
All Crew Assistants are based in the Philippines. They are college-educated, fluent in English, and trained to work with international teams. The Philippines has a large pool of highly educated, English-speaking professionals with strong cultural alignment to Western businesses. Filipino talent is known for its reliability, adaptability, and strong work ethic - making them a natural fit for global marketing support.
How soon can I expect results?
Most clients see measurable progress within 2–4 weeks, especially in tasks like social media, CRM cleanup, email campaigns, and project coordination.
Can I customize the assistant’s responsibilities?
Absolutely. During onboarding, you’ll define key tasks and focus areas. We match you with someone trained to meet those specific needs.
Do you provide SOP templates or onboarding support?
Yes. We provide templates and onboarding guidance to help you ramp your assistant quickly and ensure clear communication from day one.
How do I communicate and manage my Crew Assistant?
Crew Assistants integrate into your existing tools (Slack, Asana, Google Suite, etc.) and are trained on professional communication, meetings, and reporting.
Will my Crew Assistant work during my hours?
Yes. We match assistants based on your preferred working hours — including U.S. time zones — and confirm availability before placement.
How do I track performance and productivity?
Crew Assistants submit weekly updates and are trained to report using your preferred systems. We also conduct regular check-ins and performance reviews.
Do you offer continued training or upskilling?
Yes. Crew Assistants receive ongoing training, mentorship, and performance monitoring to keep improving on the job.
Can I scale up or add more assistants later?
Yes. Once your first Crew Assistant is integrated into your team, it’s easy to scale support by adding more based on workload or growth.
How do payments work?
We offer a simple monthly retainer model. We handle all payroll, payments, and compliance so you can focus on your business.
How do you ensure data security?
All Crew Assistants sign NDAs and follow strict security protocols. We also support secure workflows using tools like VPNs, password managers, and client-specific guidelines.
