WoodBows are so confident you’ll be happy with their services they offer a 200% 30-day money-back guarantee. They also offer a free trial, and with no contracts, you can cancel anytime.
WoodBows Alternatives
WoodBows have positioned themselves in an interesting place in the market offering both US and Philippines-based VAs.
The most similar service is TaskBullet, which also has both US and Philippines-based staff. Instead of weekly or monthly plans, Task Bullet sells “buckets” of hours you can use until you run out, and refill as needed.
At $1500 a month for a full-time virtual assistant in the Philippines, WoodBows is priced higher than many other competing services. The popular option for do-it-yourselfers is OnlineJobs.ph, where you can recruit candidates to your job and pay them directly (often in the range of $400-1000 a month for full-time).
Of course, this comes with the drawbacks of not having any company infrastructure or management layers in place.
If you’re looking for VAs in the US, Time Etc and Virtual Assist USA are two highly rated companies with similar rates.
