VAD
How it works · your first 14 days

From free audit to
embedded in ~2 weeks

A real onboarding sequence, not a sales funnel. We map your stack, match a dedicated VA, document every SOP as we ramp, then scale seat-by-seat as you add doors. Here's exactly what each step looks like.

The sequence · 4 steps

Your first 14 days, step by step

Four phases from first call to fully embedded. You leave step one with value even if you never hire us.

  1. 01
    Day 0 · before you commit

    Free ops audit

    We map your stack, your door count and your gaps — where response times slip, where margin leaks, what's stuck in someone's head. You leave with a clear picture even if you never hire us.

    • We map your PMS, pricing tool, turnover system and channels.
    • We benchmark your current first-response time and after-hours gaps.
    • You leave with a written gap analysis — yours to keep, hire us or not.
  2. 02
    Days 1–3 · match & train

    Match & train a dedicated VA

    We hand-match an STR-trained VA to your operation and train them on your tools — your PMS, your pricing platform, your turnover system — plus your house rules and tone.

    • We hand-match an STR-trained VA to your portfolio size and tone.
    • They train on your exact stack — Guesty or Hostaway, PriceLabs, Breezeway or Turno.
    • We load your house rules, canned replies and escalation paths.
  3. 03
    Days 4–14 · embed & ramp

    Embed & ramp

    Week one is shadowing and SOP capture. By week two your VA is live on guest comms, calendar and turnovers with QA checks, and every process is documented as we go.

    • Week one is shadowing — every reply is QA-checked before it sends.
    • We document each workflow as a written SOP as we go.
    • Week two your VA runs guest comms, calendar and turnovers live.
  4. 04
    Day 15+ · scale

    Scale

    As you add doors, we add seats. Spin up after-hours coverage, layer in pricing and marketing, or grow to a full VA team — without growing your in-house payroll.

    • Add after-hours coverage, pricing execution, or marketing as a standalone service.
    • Spin up a second seat as your door count climbs.
    • Monthly owner reporting and SLA reviews keep quality steady.
Inside the ramp

What week one looks like

The shadowing week is where quality gets built in. Every reply is QA-checked and every workflow is documented before your VA goes live.

  1. Mon

    Kickoff & access

    Least-privilege logins are provisioned, tools connected, your point of contact set.

  2. Tue

    Shadow guest comms

    Your VA reads live threads and drafts replies in your tone for QA review.

  3. Wed

    SOP capture

    Check-in, cleaning and escalation flows get written down as repeatable SOPs.

  4. Thu

    Supervised live

    Approved replies go out, calendar edits and turnover triggers handled with checks.

  5. Fri

    Review & go-live plan

    We review accuracy, tighten the SOPs and sign off week-two live scope together.

Typical schedule — adjusted to your portfolio and channels during the audit.

Your stack, not ours

The tools we plug straight into

We train your VA on the systems you already run, so there's no migration and no new platform to learn. If it's in your stack, we operate it.

Property management systems
  • Guesty
  • Hostaway
  • Hospitable
  • OwnerRez
Revenue & pricing
  • PriceLabs
  • Wheelhouse
Turnover & maintenance
  • Breezeway
  • Turno
Channels & OTAs
  • Airbnb
  • Vrbo
  • Booking.com

Running something else? We'll learn it during the audit and document it the same way.

Security & access

Scoped access, your data stays yours

Your VA works inside your accounts with the minimum access the job needs — and you can pull it back in minutes.

Least-privilege access

Your VA gets a scoped role in your PMS — never owner banking, payouts or admin you don't grant.

Your tools, your data

We work inside your systems. Guest and owner data stays in your accounts; nothing is exported to ours.

Credential hygiene

Shared password manager, enforced 2FA, no plain-text logins and no shared personal accounts.

Offboarding in minutes

Revoke one role and access is gone. We confirm removal in writing the same day.

Service levels

The SLAs we operate to

Clear, measurable commitments — set against your baseline during the audit and reviewed every month. Targets we build toward, not guarantees.

We map your stack, door count and gaps, then show you exactly where a dedicated VA pays for itself — and what your first 14 days would look like.
