The Real Problem

The hardest part isn’t knowing you need help.
It’s figuring out what happens next.

Who do you hire? Where do you find them? How do you know they’re qualified? How do you train them? How do you get them up to speed? And how do you know you made the right choice?

You already have enough on your plate. The last thing you need is to turn hiring into another full-time job.

What if you could hand some of that work off?

More Time.More Focus.More Capacity.Less Doing Everything Yourself.

You’re not really looking for a VA.

You’re looking for more time.

A virtual assistant is only part of the solution. The real challenge is figuring out who to hire, how to evaluate them, how to prepare them, and how to get them productive. That’s where The Next Move comes in.

More energy for your clients and room to grow your program.

Tenant messages, maintenance coordination, and records eat every hour of your day.

Training & Preparation

Your VA should have a clear understanding of what they’re stepping into.

Harold Bautista, founder of The Next Move
A Note From the Founder

I’m not here to hand you a list of candidates and wish you luck.

Hi, I’m Harold. I’ve spent over a decade working inside US businesses as an operations manager, executive assistant, and marketer. I know what great support looks like because I’ve been that support.

The goal is to help you move from overwhelmed to supported. Bringing someone into your business requires trust. That’s why the process is built around communication, preparation, and finding the right fit.

FAQ

Questions? Answered.

How long does placement take?
Most placements are completed within one to two weeks from the discovery call, depending on how specialized the role is. You’ll get a realistic timeline upfront.
Can I interview the candidates?
Yes. We do the heavy lifting first, then present you with a shortlist. You can meet the top candidates before anything is finalized. You always have the final say.
Do you train the VA?
Yes. Depending on your package, your VA is prepared on tools, communication standards, and the expectations of the role before their first day, so you’re not spending your time teaching basics.
Can you train on my systems?
Yes. During the discovery call we map out the systems you use (CRM, calendar, project management, industry tools), and the onboarding is built around them.
Can I hire multiple VAs?
Absolutely. The Big Move package is designed exactly for that, with role strategy, team structure guidance, and multi-VA recruitment.
Do you provide ongoing support?
Every package includes at least a 30-day check-in. The Smart Move and The Big Move include extended support check-ins, and monthly support options are available.
Do you work with Realtors?
Real estate is a specialty. Our experience covers brokerages, investor teams, and property managers, including CRM, lead follow-up, listing support, and transaction coordination support.
Is the VA an employee of The Next Move?
No. Your VA works directly with your business. The Next Move handles the finding, screening, preparation, and onboarding process.
Who pays the VA?
You do, directly. VA compensation is separate from the placement fee and is agreed upon based on the candidate, role, experience, and responsibilities. There’s no ongoing markup on their pay.
How much does a VA cost?
Rates vary by role and experience. Many roles typically range from $6 to $12 per hour. We’ll give you realistic expectations for your specific role on the discovery call.
Can I request specific skills?
Yes. Role definition is part of every package. Tools, skills, industry experience, working hours, and communication style all factor into the match.
What happens if the VA isn’t a good fit?
Talk to us during your support window. We’ll work through the issue, and if it can’t be resolved, we’ll help you find a replacement candidate.
Is the placement fee refundable?
If we can’t present you with a suitable match, you don’t pay. Specific terms are confirmed before any engagement begins, so there are no surprises.
Do you guarantee placement?
We guarantee a thorough process: real screening, real preparation, and support after placement. No honest service can guarantee a perfect human being, but we stand behind every match and support you through the transition.
Can you help create the role description?
Yes. Many owners know they need help but haven’t defined the role. Role definition and delegation planning are part of the process.
Do you help with onboarding?
Yes. Onboarding guidance is included in every package, and The Smart Move includes a fully customized onboarding plan with workflow setup and initial task planning.
Can you help build SOPs?
Yes. SOP and process guidance is included in The Smart Move and The Big Move, so your business knowledge gets documented instead of living only in your head.
Do you offer monthly support?
Yes. If you’d like ongoing help beyond placement, ask about monthly support options on your discovery call.
How does the referral program work?
Introduce a business owner who needs a VA. They book a call, we manage the placement, and once the placement is successfully completed you earn a 20% referral commission on the placement fee.
