A HubSpot virtual assistant keeps the portal you already pay for current: contacts, deals, lists, sequences, and the weekly report. This guide is the working detail. The seat we hire is the HubSpot virtual assistant. That page is the offer: a full-time person in the Philippines, $1,800 a month, a 14-day start, and a 1-week trial with replacement or refund.
This guide and the role we hire
Use this page to decide the tasks, the access, and how you will know the work is done. Use the role page when you want us to shortlist someone for that seat. They are not two versions of the same pitch.
If HubSpot is one tool among ads, email, and social, the closer seat is a marketing assistant. If the week is outbound calls and meetings, look at an outsourced SDR instead. Campaign strategy, discounts, and new pipeline rules stay with you either way.
What a HubSpot virtual assistant does each week
Name the hub and the output. A useful week is cleaner records and a report you can read.
| HubSpot area | Weekly tasks a virtual assistant can own | What stays with you |
|---|---|---|
| Contacts and companies | Deduplicate records, fill the fields your rules require, and fix lifecycle stages you already defined | The lifecycle definitions |
| Deals and pipeline | Move a deal to the stage your definitions describe, log the activity, and flag a deal that has gone quiet | Stage rules, discounts, and close decisions |
| Sequences and email | Load a list you approved, schedule the sends, and log replies | The copy and who is allowed to be emailed |
| Lists and segments | Rebuild a list when your rules change, and say what the count did | The rules |
| Forms and workflows | Test a form or workflow after someone else edits it, and report what broke | Publishing a new workflow |
| Reporting | Pull the weekly pipeline and activity report for the meeting you already hold | What the meeting decides |
Permissions to grant
HubSpot’s permission names change, and this is not a screenshot of your portal. Treat the list as an illustrative seat, then match it to the objects you actually use.
- A user who can view and edit contacts and companies, not a super admin.
- Deal edit on the pipelines you name. Not every pipeline, and not billing.
- Sequence send from the connected inbox you approve. Not a personal mailbox.
- Workflows: they can test one you already turned on. They do not publish a new one until you have read it.
- Reporting: they can open the dashboards you use for the weekly meeting.
Create the user yourself and keep the switch. When the seat ends, you remove the user. We do not claim a HubSpot security certification, single sign-on setup, or a particular permission package beyond the access you choose to grant.
A work sample you can score
The method is a work sample test: the same brief, scored against rules you wrote first. The rows below are an illustration, not a file from a real portal.
Give a spreadsheet of about 40 contacts. Include duplicate emails, a blank lifecycle stage, and one company spelled two ways. Ask for a deduplicated list, the merge rule, the rows they would not merge, and the count before and after.
You score three things. Did they follow your rule? Did they leave the ambiguous rows for you? Can you check the count without opening HubSpot? Certification is not the test. A tidy sample on made-up rows is.
The first week on the role is a 1-week trial with replacement or refund, so the same exercise can run on a copy of your export once you trust the person with it. Do not start them on the live portal.
What handover looks like
Ask for this pack at the end of a cleanup. It is an illustrative checklist, not a template we file for you.
- Records changed, and records left alone, with the reason.
- Fields filled, and the rule for each field.
- Lists loaded into a sequence, and who approved the list.
- Anything that failed a test, including a form that did not notify.
- The user seat you can turn off, and which pipelines it could edit.
You still own the pipeline. The assistant’s job is to make the change visible. How to brief and score a sample is also in how to vet and interview a virtual assistant.

Frequently asked questions
Can a virtual assistant manage my HubSpot CRM?
Yes, inside rules you write down: required fields, stage definitions, and which objects they may edit. They keep contacts, deals, sequences, lists, and the weekly report current. You still own the pipeline and you still approve what gets sent.
Which HubSpot permissions should I grant?
Start with the smallest seat that can do the week’s tasks: edit contacts and the pipelines you name, send from an inbox you connect, and read the report you already use. The examples on this page are illustrative. HubSpot’s exact permission labels are yours to match. Do not start with a super admin.

How is this guide different from the HubSpot role page?
This guide is how to scope the work, the access, a sample, and the handover. The role page is the seat we hire, including the price and what the person does not own.
