Virtual Assistants Association of South Africa, We are here to help.

Need help with that?

Whether you are a Virtual Assistant, or looking for a VA, we can help.

Welcome to VAASA

The concept of VIRTUAL ASSISTANTS (VAs) in South Africa is still a fairly new one. The UK and USA have thousands of VAs, and the USA even have an online site of the Top 10 VAs in the USA. We believe South African Virtual Assistants can, and are, some the hardest working, professionals around. We believe that an Association to increase awareness of Virtual Assistants in South Africa is exactly what is needed to educate businesses and professional people, in the benefits of using Virtual Assistants.

When you join VAASA you have a place to exchange ideas and meet like-minded professionals committed to excellence. Joining VAASA gives you the opportunity to be recognised as a professional in your field. You get the benefit of years of advice, mentoring, templates and the opportunity for RFP’s from potential clients. There is the added benefit of advertising your VA business in our directory to be seen by numerous potential clients.
