What exactly IS a Virtual Assistant - or VA?

“VAs are independent contractors who provide administrative support or specialized business services from a distance, through the Internet, fax, telephone or another method of communication. They can help a company that needs extra people to meet seasonal demands; provide unique skills for a special project; or step in to meet the demands of business growth, locally, domestically or globally." *

You may have to get your own coffee and donuts, but LampStone Office Solutions can provide office assistance for virtually any job or project that requires an extra hand - at a price you can afford.

Did you know that using a virtual assistant can cost roughly 50 percent less than hiring a full-time employee? And unlike hiring a temp, you only pay for the time it takes to do the job.

IPS Standards For Your Protection...

LampStone Office Solutions uses Industry Production Standards guidelines published by the Association of Business Support Services International, Inc. and Executive Suite Association for computing time as one factor in calculating charges for document production and non-keyboard services.

Industry Production Standards are based on average time required in the performance of specific duties for project production by a professional information processing operator, and calculated uniformly in 6-minute (or 0.1 hr.) increments.
