Stealth Agents delivers skilled virtual assistants at a fraction of traditional hiring costs.
Traditional staffing firms charge clients an average markup of 50 percent or more above worker pay rates, while managed service providers offering dedicated support models are capturing market share by eliminating those markup structures and delivering predictable monthly costs that finance teams can actually budget around.
The Hidden Cost Of DIY Business Management
Business owners spend 16 hours per week on admin tasks that could be done by others.
This time drain keeps you from focusing on growth and making money.
Missed follow-ups cost companies $1.8 million per year in lost revenue.
You end up working nights and weekends just to keep up with basic tasks.

A Day In The Life Of Your Remote Assistant
Your assistant starts each morning by checking your priority list and urgent emails.
They handle customer inquiries, update your CRM, and prepare your daily schedule.
Throughout the day, they manage your calendar, research new opportunities, and keep projects moving forward.
By evening, you receive a summary of completed tasks and tomorrow’s priorities.
Set up weekly check-ins with your assistant to review priorities and adjust tasks based on your changing business needs.
