Supportive systems that make your VA life easier

BrightHelp was built by a VA who’s been where you are, balancing multiple clients, craving stability, and wanting to grow sustainably without burnout.

That’s why this platform focuses on clarity, connection, and the kind of structure that helps you do your best work.

This isn’t another app. It’s a better way to run your business.

BrightHelp isn’t just another directory; it’s a system that helps you stay visible, organized, and connected to verified clients who value structure and clear communication.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I join BrightHelp as a VA?

Submit the application form, complete your profile, and we’ll review everything within 48 hours. Once approved, you’ll get access to your own BrightHelp Workspace and your directory listing (if you’re in Canada).

What’s included in the Founding VA Membership?

You get your own BrightHelp Workspace, a directory listing (Canada only), client matching (Canada only), support templates, onboarding tools, and early access to new features. Founding VAs also keep their lifetime pricing.

Can VAs from any country join?

Yes! Any VA can get a BrightHelp Workspace.
Matching and the public directory are Canada-only for now, with plans to expand.

Can I bring my existing clients into my Workspace?

Absolutely. Many VAs start that way. You can invite your current clients into your Workspace for organized communication, file sharing, and task management, all under your own name.

Do I get guaranteed clients by joining?

No. BrightHelp isn’t a job placement service. We help you get discovered by the right clients and give you a professional system to work with them, but you set your own hours, choose your clients, and run your business independently.

How long does it take for my profile to go live?

Usually within 48 hours after your application is approved and your payment is confirmed. You’ll get an email when your listing is active.

Do I need experience to join?

You don’t need years of experience, but you do need real skills you can offer clients. Your application should include samples, links, or proof of your abilities so clients can make an informed decision.

How do I get paid by clients?

You handle your own billing. You and the client decide your rate and payment schedule. BrightHelp does not take a commission and doesn’t sit between you and your money. I recommend Stripe for credit card processing and invoicing, or Shakepay for accepting international crypto payments.

What if I want to change my services or update my profile?

Easy, you can edit your listing anytime. You can also update your Workspace files and templates as your business grows.

Do clients see my Workspace?

Only the clients you invite. Each client gets their own shared space with you, and they don’t see anything from your other clients.

What happens if I cancel my membership?

Your Workspace access ends, and your directory listing is removed. You can export your files before cancelling, and your clients will no longer access the Workspace afterward.

Is BrightHelp good for brand-new VAs?

Yes. You get structure, templates, a professional workspace, and a clear way to present your skills. You’ll also be positioned in a Canadian VA directory designed for real small-business owners (if applicable).

Is BrightHelp good for established VAs?

Definitely. Many established VAs use the Workspace to streamline client communication and to keep projects organized without needing 15 different apps. You can also invite your full client list in if you want everything in one place.

How many clients can I work with inside my Workspace?

As many as you want. There’s no cap, the system is built to scale with your business.

Do you offer support if I get stuck?

Yes! You can reach out anytime for help with your Workspace, your listing, or anything related to your membership and you can find more answers to frequently asked questions here.
