Services

Job Scheduling & Calendar Management

Managing multiple jobs and appointments can quickly become overwhelming. With TradieVA, your dedicated Virtual Assistant handles all scheduling tasks - from booking new jobs to rescheduling and sending reminders. This ensures your calendar is always accurate, up to date, and aligned with your priorities. By freeing you from constant phone calls and double-booking risks, you can stay focused on getting the job done on-site.

Quoting & Invoicing Support

Cash flow is the lifeblood of any trade business, but preparing quotes and chasing invoices often eats up valuable time. TradieVA streamlines the process by drafting professional quotes, ensuring they’re delivered quickly and accurately to your clients. We also track outstanding invoices, send polite follow-ups, and help keep your accounts in order. With this support, you get paid faster and spend less time worrying about paperwork.

Customer Communication

Your clients expect timely, professional communication at every step - and that’s where TradieVA comes in. From responding to enquiries and confirming bookings to sending updates and reminders, your VA ensures no message slips through the cracks. By maintaining consistent contact, you build stronger client relationships and avoid common misunderstandings. The result is a smoother customer journey and higher satisfaction rates.

Admin & Compliance

Staying on top of licenses, insurances, contracts, and compliance requirements can be stressful - especially when deadlines approach. TradieVA manages these essential documents for you, setting reminders for renewals and keeping everything organised in one place. This proactive approach helps you stay compliant with industry standards and avoid costly oversights. With admin off your plate, you can operate confidently and professionally.

Systems & Process Support

Running a trade business efficiently requires the right tools, but learning and maintaining them can take valuable time. Our VAs are skilled in SimPro and can assist with setup, data entry, and ongoing management. We also help streamline your processes so your systems work seamlessly together. By optimising these tools, you save hours each week and build a business that’s ready to scale.

Marketing Assistance

Consistent marketing keeps your brand visible and competitive, but it’s often the first thing to fall behind when you’re busy on-site. Our VA helps you plan and execute marketing activities such as social media posting, email newsletters, and content creation. We ensure your business maintains an active online presence and connects with your audience regularly. This ongoing support helps generate new leads, strengthen your reputation, and keep you ahead of the competition.

FAQ

We understand that every business is different. If your VA isn’t the right match, we’ll work with you to reassign and onboard a new VA quickly at no extra cost. Your success is our priority, so we make sure you always have the right support.
Our VAs are primarily based in the Philippines, where we source skilled professionals with strong English communication skills and admin expertise. This allows you to get high-quality support at a fraction of the cost of hiring locally.
Getting started is simple:

  1. Book a consultation with our team.

  2. We assess your business needs and match you with the right VA.

  3. Onboarding begins, and your VA is ready to support your business.

You’ll have ongoing support from the TradieVA team to ensure your VA delivers results and grows with your business.

We’re 100% trade-focused. Our systems, training, and VAs are designed around the unique needs of tradies. Unlike generic VA providers, we understand quoting, job scheduling, customer follow-ups, and the software you rely on.
