Need to schedule and confirm meetings, manage your calendar or appointments regularly? Don’t worry! Let your Buddy take care of them for you.

Too busy to handle a lot of things on your own? Hire a Buddy to send gifts, make purchases, handle phone calls, and track order on your behalf!

Is your inbox full of clutter? Your Buddy can help you with emailing clients, mailbox management, setting up business emails, and organizing email campaigns.

Does your schedule involve a lot of traveling? Allow one of our Buddies to assist with flight planning, researching car and hotel options, finding new restaurants, and building an itinerary for upcoming trips.

It’s okay to seek help with website and blog management, social media site updates, scheduling social media, and engaging with customers via social media. Don’t worry — we got you!

Is there anything that you need to research? From organizing details, locating events and venues, creating dossiers for clients, and gathering qualitative and quantitative data, our Buddies will do everything for you!

Why are our Buddies primarily based in the United States?

At the Buddy Effect, we tend to connect you with assistants that are native to the United States. Why? Because with them, you don’t have to face issues that can arrive due to language barriers, familiarity with the American culture, and overall communication.

1. No Language Barrier

It’s all about communication! Imagine not being able to convey your message clearly to your buddy. Wouldn’t it be a drag? Most of the communication will probably be through email, text, or phone. Clear communication is essential when you’re hiring a right-hand to assist you in your business.

2. No Culture Barriers

The American culture is a lot to learn in regards to finances, traveling, media, measurements, and so much more. Wouldn’t it be a drag if you had to spend a lot of time explaining things that are foreign to someone? That’s why we connect you with local talent that is geared towards getting things done for you!

Hiring in the US also allows us to do a thorough background check on each candidate to ensure we can protect our client’s security and trust.

3. No Major Time Zone Differences

Having an assistant that works overseas can make it extremely difficult to connect easily due to major time zone differences. Imagine having a last-minute task, and your assistant is catching ZZZs while you’re in the midst of a crisis?

We don’t let that happen at the Buddy Effect. This approach reduces the need for you to conduct training and gives you a more immediate boost in your level of productivity.
