The Collaborative Co.

The Collaborative Co. The Collaborative Co. is a VA, founded by a two-time Aus VA of the Year finalist.

We match skilled Filipino virtual assistants with Australian business owners who are ready to grow without burning out.

You know the tab.

The one that's been open for three weeks. Maybe longer. The one you minimise when things get busy and reopen on a Sunday night when the spiral kicks in.

You've read the same agency websites. Looked at the same price points. Wondered if it's even worth it. Wondered if you'll get burned again. Wondered if you're actually ready to hand something over this time, or if you'll just do what you did last time and quietly take it all back after two weeks.

I see you.

And I want you to know that the tab staying open isn't indecision. It's care.

You care about getting this right. You care about not wasting money on another VA that doesn't work. You care about finding someone who actually gets your business and shows up for it the way you do.

That care is exactly why TCC exists.

We don't do bulk placements. We don't send you three options and wish you luck. We don't place someone and disappear.

We find your person. We back them. We stay in it with you.

The tab has been open long enough.

For a long time the answer to that question was always the business...

The next placement.
The next client.
The next thing on the list that never got shorter no matter how early I started or how late I stayed.

It was like being the most available person in my own business was something to be proud of.

It wasn't. It was burnout with better branding.

The most important project I've been working on lately? Me.

The Pilates reformer that's now a non-negotiable.
The weekends at Dreamworld with my daughter.
The dinners with friends that don't get cancelled.
The overseas trips with my family because I built something that can actually run without me holding every piece of it together.

None of this happened because I worked 'harder'. It happened because I stopped being the only one who could.

The right VA didn't just give me time back. She gave me permission to stop treating myself like the least important thing on my own list.

That's what we're really building at TCC.

Not just great VA placements. A business that works for you. Not the other way around.

If you're still the most available person in your own business, I'd love to change that.

Two words your VA says so you don't have to...

The inbox. Handled.
The follow ups. Handled.
The content. Handled.
The onboarding. Handled.
The scheduling. Handled.
The reporting. Handled.
Finding the right VA in the first place. Also handled.

That last one is on us.

Because here's what most founders don't sit down and calculate. What doing all of this yourself is actually costing you. Not just in hours. In dollars. Real ones.

The average founder loses at least 20 hours a week to tasks a Virtual Assistant could own. At your hourly rate, whatever that is, add it up. That number is uncomfortable. We know. We built a calculator for it 😉

But then there's the other side of the equation...

A fully dedicated VA embedded in your business from $1,900 a month. Sourced specifically for you. Vetted. Onboarded with structure. Backed by a full team. Working set business hours so they show up focused every single day.

The math is not complicated. Not having the right support costs more than having it.
It always has.

→ DM us 'CALCULATOR' and we'll send you the link to run your own numbers.

See exactly what doing it alone is costing you and what the right VA would actually save. It's handled. From the moment we find your person.

Three packages. Multiple areas of support. One framework behind all of it.

And a process that means by the time you meet your Virtual Assistant...

→ the sourcing
→ the vetting
→ the interviewing
→ the onboarding

Everything is already handled by us.

Your job is to tell us what you need.

We help with the rest.

Your VA can only be as good as the environment you build around them.

And most founders don't realise that until three months in, wondering why it's not working.

The passwords.
The brand kit (or lack thereof).
The brief.
The feedback.
The single communication channel they don't have to hunt across five platforms 😅

These aren't big asks. But they change everything about how your VA shows up for you.

The best VA placements I've seen have one thing in common. The founder was actually ready. Not perfect. Not fully organised. Just ready to actually let someone in.

That readiness starts here.

Let's talk about the number nobody wants to say out loud...

What not having a Virtual Assistant is actually costing you.Not JUST in dollars.

In hours.
In energy.
In the decisions you're not making because you're too busy answering your own emails. In the growth that isn't happening because you're still the bottleneck in your own business.

But let's do the dollars too. Because the math is not complicated 😉

A full time Australian admin assistant costs around $66,500 a year.

Add super. Add annual leave. Add sick leave. Add public holidays. Add the time you spent hiring, onboarding, and managing them yourself. Add everything else.

Now compare that to a fully dedicated, skilled, vetted VA embedded in your business for $3,650+ gst a month.

That's $43,800 a year.

With a recruitment process that does the hard work for you. A framework that sets them up to succeed from day one. A full team behind them. And a founder who won't place anyone until the match is ACTUALLY right.

The number nobody wants to say out loud? You've been leaving $33,238 on the table every single year.

Not because you didn't know high quality offshore support existed. Because you hadn't found the right agency to make it work properly.

That's what we're for.

This is the whole reason...

Every message. Every "how did I live without you."

This is why we don't cut corners on the match. Why we don't pull from a waiting list. Why we ask the hard questions before anyone starts.

Because this is what it looks like when it's done right.

And honestly, there is nothing better. ❤️

The tasks leave your plate because someone chose to pick them up.

Not because they had to. Because they wanted to.

That's the part nobody talks about when they talk about hiring a Virtual Assistant.

It's not just about the hours. It's about finding someone who genuinely cares what happens to your inbox. Who treats your follow ups like they matter. Who shows up on a Monday morning invested in how your week goes.

That kind of person doesn't just appear. They're built by the environment around them.

At TCC our VAs are paid above award. They have set business hours that are actually respected. They have a full team behind them and a founder who checks in because she genuinely wants to, not because she has to.

A VA who feels looked after looks after your business differently.

And I promise that's not a theory. That's every single message we've received from a client who finally found their person.

If you're ready to find yours, I'd love to help.

Burnout happens when one person tries to carry everything for too long.

The inbox.
The content.
The follow ups.
The onboarding.
The invoicing.
The scheduling.
The reporting.
The tasks that were never supposed to be yours but somehow ended up there anyway...

And you kept going. Because YOU built this. Because nobody else knows it like you do. Because it's just quicker if you do it yourself.

Until it wasn't.

You didn't build this to burn out in it. Stop doing it all on your own.
