Frequently asked questions

How much does a social media virtual assistant cost?+
A full-time offshore social media virtual assistant costs $800 to $1,800 USD per month. Junior schedulers and community managers sit at the lower end. Mid-level VAs who handle content writing, reel editing, and analytics sit at the higher end.
Can a virtual assistant for social media management edit reels and TikToks?+
Many can, but ask specifically. In your SourceU interview questions, request a walkthrough of a CapCut edit or a sample reel they've edited. The video answer will tell you whether their editing matches your expectations.
Will a social media VA understand my brand voice?+
Not on day one — no one will, including a local hire. The video interview lets you screen for taste, writing quality, and judgment before hiring. You then train on brand voice over the first 2–4 weeks. That combination is more reliable than hiring blind and hoping.
Can a social media VA manage paid ads?+
Most general social media VAs do not run paid Meta or TikTok ads. That usually requires a dedicated paid-media specialist. If you need both organic and paid coverage, post two roles or specifically test for ads experience in your interview questions.
