For Solo Founders

The Situation

You're working 60-hour weeks. Every email, every meeting, every invoice falls on you. You know you need help, but hiring feels like another job you don't have time for.

The local hiring market is brutal. Posting jobs, screening candidates, conducting interviews, checking references. Even if you found someone great, you'd need to figure out payroll, benefits, and equipment. And if they don't work out? Start all over again.

Meanwhile, your actual business (the thing that makes money) sits on the back burner while you play calendar Tetris and chase down invoices.

How SoTalented Helps

We take the entire hiring process off your plate. Within 48 hours, you'll have a senior executive assistant who's been pre-vetted for both skills and cultural fit, trained on your specific tools, and ready to hit the ground running.

Your EA works from a Grade A office with proper infrastructure: reliable internet, professional environment, and dedicated equipment. No bedroom setups, no coffee shop WiFi drops during important calls.

Tasks They Handle

Here's what gets lifted off your shoulders from day one:

  • Calendar management and scheduling - No more double-bookings or missed meetings. Your EA owns your calendar completely.

  • Email triage and responses - They filter the noise, flag what matters, and draft responses in your voice.

  • Meeting preparation and follow-ups - Agendas ready before you walk in, action items tracked after you walk out.

  • Travel coordination and booking - Flights, hotels, ground transport, all handled with your preferences in mind.

  • Research and data gathering - Need market intel before a pitch? Competitor analysis? They've got it.

  • Basic bookkeeping and expense tracking - Invoices processed, expenses categorized, receipts filed.

  • Customer responses and follow-ups - Keep your clients happy without adding to your inbox.

Why SoTalented Is Different

When you compare us to other options, the difference is clear:

  • Works from a Grade A office, not their bedroom - Professional infrastructure means reliable performance.

  • We handle payroll, compliance, and equipment - One invoice, zero HR headaches. See our full pricing breakdown for what's included.

  • 30-day replacement guarantee - If it's not the right fit, we find you someone new at no extra cost.

The Result

Solo founders who bring on an EA through SoTalented typically see these outcomes within the first month:

  • Reclaim 20+ hours weekly - That's half a work week back to focus on growth.

  • 2x your sales meetings - When someone else handles the scheduling, you take more calls.

  • 90% faster response times - Customers and partners get answers while you're still in meetings.
