Mid Missouri · Working Nationally
Virtual assistance for small businesses and nonprofits. Hands-on administrative, operational, and client-facing support, backed by 20+ years of business management experience.
Based in Mid Missouri, working virtually with clients across the country. Pay only for the time we work on your business.
Why a small business virtual assistant pays for itself
If the owner of a small business spends ten hours a week on inbox triage, scheduling, invoicing, and follow-ups, that is ten hours not spent selling, building, or serving customers. The hours come back when those tasks shift to a virtual assistant who handles them faster and at a fraction of an in-house hire.
A small business virtual assistant from Clarkston Virtual Business Solutions costs less than a part-time employee, with no benefits, no retainer, and no payment for downtime. Engagements are flat-fee or hourly starting at $20, scoped to your specific needs in writing before the work starts.
What we do
Triage, drafting, scheduling, meeting prep. The communications backbone of the business, kept tidy.
Invoices sent on time, polite follow-ups, AR/AP records kept clean in Quickbooks, Wave, or whatever you use.
Quotes sent, prospects re-engaged, onboarding scheduled, your CRM kept honest. Hubspot, Salesforce, Pipedrive, or simpler tools.
SharePoint, Google Drive, Dropbox. Filing, naming, organizing, and archiving so your team can find what they need.
Vendor and competitor research, lead-list building, list cleaning, the spreadsheet work that quietly makes the business run.
Newsletter campaigns, online forms, donor thank-you flows, event RSVPs, the small projects you keep meaning to launch.
Who we work with
The teams we work with are small enough that the owner is also doing three other jobs, and the to-do list keeps growing. Service businesses, professional firms, retailers, real-estate teams, contractors, churches, nonprofits.
Most of our clients pay for between five and twenty hours a month and find that those hours quietly make a real difference in what the business can take on.
