Welcome to our Blog! This is where we share tips and tricks for anyone who wants to become a virtual assistant.
This blog from Sphere Rocket Jobs provides a practical guide for Filipino Virtual Assistants who want to confidently set competitive rates and build long-term success in the remote workforce. Key Highlights: Why Pricing Matters for Filipino VAs Many VAs struggle to price their services fairly—often undercharging due to lack of guidance. This blog encourages VAs to view their work as a business and explains how strategic pricing leads to a more sustainable remote career. Understanding VA Pricing Models VAs can choose hourly, project-based, or hybrid pricing structures depending on the role. The blog outlines examples of each model and where they are most effective. Sample Rate Ranges by Role (2025) Based on industry data and Sphere Rocket placements, the blog provides general rate benchmarks by experience level and job type—ranging from $3/hour for entry-level admin roles to $20/hour for advanced design or bookkeeping work. (Note: Actual rates may vary by client and project scope.) Factors That Influence Your Rate Rates depend on skills, experience, client region (U.S., UK, AU clients often pay higher), certifications, and project complexity. Specialized skills and completed training programs can help justify higher compensation. Tips for Rate Negotiation The blog includes clear strategies for rate conversations, such as: Understanding market averages Presenting your value with confidence Offering tiered service packages Raising rates professionally after skill upgrades or certifications How to Increase Your Value (and Your Income) VAs are encouraged to upskill, bundle services, and specialize in high-demand niches (e.g., real estate, automation, or content creation) to remain competitive in a global marketplace. Final Takeaway: Setting the right rate is not just about getting hired—it’s about building a long-term, rewarding remote career. With the right mindset, training, and tools, Filipino Virtual Assistants can confidently charge what they’re worth.
