How does it work?
1. Talk
Schedule a FREE 15 minute discovery call with Mary. In this session, we’ll discuss what you want to achieve in the coming months and how we can partner with you to get there. We’ll advise you on our team’s skillset and if business coaching is a good match for what you need.
That way, you can decide if this is the right fit for you and your business, quickly and simply.
2. Prep
Once we’ve agreed there’s a match, we’ll send you a private link to activate your monthly subscription. From there, we’ll set up your first 1-1 business coaching call with Mary. This clarity call will help us prioritize what to focus on first and delegate tasks to our team this month.
We’ll assign the very best person (or people!) on the team to your current project needs.
3. Work
Now we get to work. You can now focus on the bigger tasks, knowing that we’re taking care of the rest! We’ll be in regular communication with you, so you know which tasks have been completed, where we need to course-correct and achieve maximum progress in our work together.
Grow your team without growing your bottom line. It’s time to simplify!

FAQs
What is it like to work with my virtual assistant?
We keep things super simple.
Your virtual assistant will keep a running list of tasks, updating you regularly on the status of completion. You can also schedule quick check-in calls (via Google Meet) as and when you need to chat things out further. Unlike other VA agencies, your virtual assistant will be super skilled, English speaking, and you will be assigned a specific Simplifier per project or task.
What if I don’t use all the VA time each month?
Unused VA time rolls over for up to 3 months!
If we complete everything you’ve asked us to do in less time than we thought, then first off… it’s time to CELEBRATE A WIN.
We’ll keep the extra hours in the bank for you to use on the next project/task, for up to 3 months. So, the next time you have some work we can help you with, it’s there for you to redeem!
What if I don’t use all the 1-1 business coaching time each month?
Well, here’s where you snooze, you lose.
Your 1-1 business coaching time with Mary is best used in the month you receive it. That way, you’re getting the most out of your business support from The Simplifiers and ensuring the tasks you delegate to your virtual assistants are the very best ones that’ll get you closer to achieving your goals. Therefore, your coaching call time must be used in the month allocated, no rollover.
Is this good value for me though?
Great question. We say YES!
Here’s why: 5 hours of time on our VA’s watch will probably save you 20-25 hours of your time… we’ll match the task at hand with the very best person on the team for that job. Just think… how much extra revenue could you generate with an extra 20-25 hours? Or how much money will you save by getting these tasks checked off your to-do list?
Will you definitely help me?
The discovery call is where we mutually decide this together!
Well, we reserve the right to turn down any work if we feel the fit is not right between us. But once we decide to go ahead… we will absolutely help you.
With Mary as your business coach, she’ll work with you to prioritize which tasks to delegate each month. And then, she’ll help you get clear on exactly what you’d like from our virtual team, and we’ll get to work. We’ll check in with you regularly too as clear, simple communication is our specialty.
Can I hire Mary as my VA?
Wouldn’t that be GREAT!?
Sadly no. However, she will be your dedicated business coach and your account manager, ensuring the tasks that are delegated to her team of virtual assistants are getting done on time and just how you like it!
Can I change my plan?
Definitely, we make it super simple!
If you find you need more VA hours, you can add on additional 5-hour bundles at the Silver rate ($250), Gold rate ($225), or Platinum rate ($200) per bundle. As you see, the price goes down when you upgrade your monthly support package.
Also, if you find you need less assistance next month, simply let us know and we’ll be happy to downgrade your plan accordingly.
Where is my assistant located?
USA and the United Kingdom
Your virtual assistants are based in:
- Austin, Texas
- Nottingham, England
- York, England
We recommend having a virtual assistant who is 4-8 hours ahead of you, so they can do work while you sleep and vice versa, but also have the ability to chat with you in real time, as well.
How are you different from other VA agencies?
You get a real life human who cares!
We are thoughtful and keenly aware of your brand… giving ideas, insight and advice on how to refine, simplify, and grow your business.
We are not just bots checking off tasks, but rather a skilled team that understands the bigger picture. Through coaching and knowledge of your business goals, we’re here for you, ensuring you are headed in the right direction, always.

We would be so sad to see you go!
