Can a virtual sales assistant make sales or customer calls?

The role can include customer follow-ups and approved calls, depending on the candidate's experience and agreed responsibilities. If you need dedicated cold prospecting or appointment setting, ask about a Sales Development Representative.

Can a virtual sales assistant work during U.S. business hours?

Tell us your operating hours and the time-zone overlap you need. We'll use those requirements when reviewing suitable candidates and available schedules.

What's the difference between a sales assistant and an SDR?

A sales assistant keeps contacts, customers, and account activity organized. An SDR focuses primarily on outbound prospecting, lead qualification, and booking meetings. We can help you identify the right role for your priorities.

Are there long-term contracts or minimum hours?

Berry Virtual advertises no lock-in contracts. Your proposal will confirm the available schedule, minimum hours if applicable, billing, and any notice requirements before you begin.

What happens if the assistant isn't the right fit?

Contact your Berry Virtual account team to review what isn't working and discuss the options available under your staffing agreement, including whether a different candidate is a better match.

How do we protect customer and CRM information?

Start with restricted user permissions, your approved authentication settings, and clear access rules. Discuss confidentiality requirements and current Berry Virtual security documentation before sharing sensitive customer information.

Ideal for businesses losing time to missed follow-ups, outdated CRM records, and inconsistent customer communication.
