DWS reviews responsibilities, workload, complexity, and required judgment, including stakeholders and time-zone coverage. More routine work may need more hours within Essential, rather than a higher tier.

Find My Tier

When coordination starts consuming leadership.

Competing commitments crowd out priorities

A full calendar and a busy inbox leave little space to assess what matters most.

Agreed priorities guide daily coordination, giving you a clearer view of what needs your attention.

Decisions lose momentum after meetings

Teams leave with different expectations, while preparation and follow-through fall between owners.

Dedicated support connects preparation with the next steps, keeping commitments visible.

You become the link between every moving part

Travel changes, stakeholders, and cross-team dependencies keep routing back through you.

Coordination moves to an assistant with an agreed level of independence, while business decisions remain yours.

Getting started

How do I get freelance executive assistant support?

Submit a business inquiry with your responsibilities and preferred availability. You meet with our operations professionals to discuss what your business wants and needs. We agree on responsibilities, scope, hours, and pricing, then coordinate a team to provide the executive support you need.

Can the subscription fit a limited weekly workload?

Yes. Hours and availability are agreed around your workload. The tier reflects complexity and independence; it does not set a fixed number of hours.

How do I choose Essential, Advanced, or Strategic support?

Essential covers routine administration, Advanced adds team communication and coordination across stakeholders and time zones, and Strategic adds project and team management alongside complex leadership support. DWS reviews your responsibilities, workload, stakeholders, and required judgment to recommend a tier. More routine work may call for more hours within Essential rather than a higher tier.
