Services and Companies
A virtual assistance service is a larger company providing clients with a wide variety of support services through a single point of contact. Tasks may or may not be delegated to another person in the company depending on who is best-suited for the assignment. For instance, graphic design work would be delegated to a graphic designer within the company. Proponents of this model say that the benefit to the client is that all types of services are offered under one roof.. Critics of this model say that the danger to the client is that if there's a problem with one of the team members, the loss of the entire team could be devastating, and it's smarter for a client to work with a solo VA practitioner and build a team around his or her own business.
