Transparent plans. No lock-ins.

When an agency locks you into a six-month or annual contract, your incentives and their incentives immediately diverge. They have already secured your revenue regardless of performance. Month-to-month billing at THC means we earn your business every single month. If the VA is not delivering, you leave. That reality keeps our standards high and our Client Manager layer genuinely engaged — because our business model only works if yours does.

The monthly rate covers more than the VA's time. Every THC plan includes the Client Manager layer — a senior team member who monitors performance, handles issues, and serves as your point of escalation if you ever need one. It includes backup coverage, so if your VA is unavailable, operations do not stop. It includes access to the THC client platform, which gives you visibility into hours, tasks, and performance metrics. It includes the matching process, the onboarding coordination, and any VA replacement if performance ever falls short of the KPIs established at onboarding. You are not paying for a warm body. You are paying for a managed outcome.

The comparison to a full-time hire is not rhetorical. A full-time administrative employee in the United States costs between $40,000 and $65,000 in base salary alone. Add employer payroll taxes (roughly 7.65%), health insurance ($6,000 to $12,000 per year per employee), paid time off, equipment, software licenses, HR management overhead, and the recruiting cost to replace them when they leave — and the true annual cost of a full-time hire is typically $55,000 to $85,000 or more. A THC Full-Time dedicated VA runs $1,300 per month, or $15,600 per year, with no benefits, no HR overhead, no recruiting fees, and a managed quality layer already built in. For most growing businesses, that math is not close.

Part-Time engagement at $700 per month — $8,400 annually — is the right starting point for operators who need consistent, reliable support without the commitment of a full-time resource. Many clients begin at Part-Time and expand to Full-Time within three to six months as their VA becomes embedded in operations and the volume of delegatable work becomes clear. There is no penalty for upgrading, and no friction in doing so.
