Work directly with skilled offshore virtual assistants — no agency markups, no recurring fees. You pay once, your team earns more, and your business saves every month
At Pear Tree, we make it easy for Australian and New Zealand businesses to hire trusted virtual assistants from the Philippines -
without the high agency costs.
Traditional outsourcing agencies charge up to 72% in monthly markups, keeping most of what you pay.
We do things differently:
You hire directly. Every dollar goes to your VA.
You own the relationship. Full control, no middlemen.
You only pay once. A simple one-time placement fee.
If your first hire isn’t the right fit, our 6-month replacement guarantee has you covered - at no extra cost.
