Frequently asked questions
Do I need to be based in Derby to work with you?
No. ETC Virtual works with clients right across the UK, so being in Derby is a bonus rather than a requirement. Everything can be handled remotely by email, phone and video call.
Can we meet in person?
Emma is based in Wingerworth, near Chesterfield, so an occasional local meeting in and around Derby can usually be arranged. Most support, though, is delivered remotely to save you travel and time.
How much does a virtual assistant in Derby cost?
You can pay as you go by the hour or agree a monthly package. Typical UK rates are £35–£45 per hour. See the full cost guide, or book a free consultation for a tailored quote.
