    Virtual Assistant & Customer Support

    A virtual assistant and customer support service gives you a dedicated remote professional who handles administrative work, inbox and calendar management, and front-line customer requests. The assistant works your business hours, in your tools, and is trained on your processes before day one. Conexo recruits the profile, manages HR and payroll, and follows performance so the role keeps delivering month after month.

    The role is shaped around what is currently eating your team's week. Most mandates combine administrative support and customer contact.

    • Customer support by email, chat and phone, with escalation rules
    • Order processing, invoicing support, quotes and follow-up on payments
    • CRM and database updates, document preparation, reporting
    • Travel booking, expense reports and general executive admin
    • Knowledge base and process documentation upkeep

    How does the placement work?

    • Discovery call to map the tasks, tools and hours you need covered
    • Targeted search with practical tests: writing, tone, tool proficiency, live role-play
    • Shortlist in waves of 3, with full profiles and test results

    • A dedicated performance manager who tracks response times and quality
    • HR and payroll fully managed by Conexo, one monthly invoice

    A concrete example

    We recently placed a bilingual assistant with a French SaaS company. The mandate combined customer support in French and English with administrative follow-up on client accounts.

    • Coverage aligned with the client's European business hours
    • Front-line support handled remotely, escalation to the product team when needed
    • The internal team recovered the hours previously spent on inbox and admin work

    Client details stay confidential; we can walk you through the setup on a call.

    Why hire a remote assistant?

    • Time zone alignment: coverage during your real business hours, not overnight
    • Bilingual French–English profiles for Quebec and Canadian customers
    • Cost from $11 CAD/h versus a local administrative salary
    • A full-time dedicated person, not a shared pool of agents
    • 12-month replacement guarantee included

    Frequently asked questions

    What is a virtual assistant?

    A virtual assistant is a remote professional who handles administrative, organizational and customer-facing tasks for your company, working in your tools and during your business hours.

    What is the difference between a virtual assistant and a customer support agent?

    A virtual assistant covers broad administrative and executive support, while a customer support agent focuses on answering and resolving customer requests. Many Conexo placements combine both in one role.

    How much does a virtual assistant cost?

    Rates start at $11 CAD per hour and go up to $19 CAD per hour for specialized profiles, plus a one-time recruitment fee confirmed before any deposit.

    Can the assistant work in my time zone?

    Yes. Schedules are aligned with your business hours, whether you operate in North America or Europe.

    Are the assistants bilingual?

    We regularly place French–English bilingual assistants, and language proficiency in writing and on the phone is tested during selection.

    How do you protect confidential data?

    Assistants work in your own tools with the access levels you define, under confidentiality commitments, and Conexo can restrict access to specific systems on request.
