FAQs

What experience should I look for in a freelance personal assistant on Contra?

Look for someone who has helped people like you before. Check if they’ve organized calendars, managed emails, or coordinated projects. They should be good at things you need help with.

How do I agree on deliverables with a personal assistant?

Clearly write down what you want them to do. It can be like keeping your schedule, booking travel, or managing meetings. Make sure they know what finishing the task looks like.

What kind of tools should a personal assistant be familiar with?

A good assistant should know tools like Google Workspace or Microsoft Office. They should be comfortable with using communication apps like Slack or Zoom. Being tech-savvy helps them work better and faster.

How do I set expectations with a freelancer from the start?

Talk about how you like to communicate and how often. Set a schedule for updates or check-ins. This way, both of you will know what to expect.

How do I ensure my personal assistant understands my goals?

Have a chat where you explain your big plans and small tasks. Ask them to repeat it back to you to ensure they get it. This makes your goals clear and helps them work better.

How can I make the onboarding process smooth and quick?

Gather all the information and tools they will need. Have a checklist of tasks and tools ready for them. A quick welcome meeting will also help them understand who they are working with.

What should I do to start the project successfully with a personal assistant?

Have a kick-off meeting to start things right. Discuss the first tasks you need them to handle. Tell them who to contact if they have questions.

How do I evaluate the initial work of a freelance personal assistant?

Look at if they meet deadlines or ask questions if unsure. Check if they keep you updated on their progress. Evaluate if the tasks are done as you expected.

Which US-based regulations should I be aware of when hiring a freelancer?

In the US, it’s important to classify the relationship correctly. You are not their employer, so avoid over-controlling their work. Make sure all agreements are clear and in writing.

Keep the communication open and frequent. Be adaptable to any changes needed in their tasks. Show appreciation for their good work regularly to keep the relationship strong.
