Get more done with Virtual Assistants for Consultants
How we boost productivity for Management Consultants
As demand for business transformation accelerates, and a shortage of consultants continues, your team doesn’t have time to waste on busywork. Unleash billable capacity with virtual assistants for consultancies.
Our Solution:
Management consultants spend 16 hours a week on administrative tasks. Meanwhile, two in three consulting firms say they’re short-staffed, and one in five are turning down work, Bloomberg reported. If you can’t find more consultants, you can give the ones you have more time for billable work by delegating administrative tasks to a cost-effective virtual assistant service.

Our Best Practices
We have used our decades of collective business experience to develop a collection of best practices that drive all our interactions. Here are just a few of the ways we will ensure you get exceptional service.
Keep Contacts Organized and Up to Date
Consultants have contacts stored in a variety of places, including inboxes, calendars, CRMs, spreadsheets, etc. This makes it difficult to accurately keep track of people, network, send emails, and engage in other outreach activities.
When you start working with quickskill, virtual assistants consolidate all contacts. After that, they will ensure all your contact management systems are consistent and up to date.
Adopt Your Communication Preferences
When consultants are networking, meeting clients, and carrying out other responsibilities, they just reach out to virtual assistants using the communication channels they prefer—email, text, telephone, or chat.
Our assistants will use your messaging tools and respond to all requests within the hour, so your consultants have easy access to support while they are on the go. Whenever they are not immediately available, your backup assistant will respond and ensure you get the support you need.
Research
Whether prospecting for sales, preparing reports, or generating planning documents, our virtual assistants are experts at collecting research data based on your requirements and criteria. Your virtual assistant will carefully curate the information consultants need to stay well-informed and support business initiatives. Information we gather for our current clients includes:
- Competitor and partner research
- Market research and performance
- Client activities
