Frequently Asked Questions
Can they do custom graphic design from scratch?
Our VAs specialize in file prep, not elite graphic design. They excel at converting JPEGs to vectors (SVG/DXF), laying out text, generating mockups for approval, and organizing files for LightBurn, but they do not typically create original artwork from scratch.
Do they know how to use LightBurn or CorelDRAW?
Yes. While they won't operate the laser remotely, they are trained in software like CorelDRAW and Illustrator to format files, assign cut/engrave colors, and nest designs so the files are completely ready for you to run.
How do they quote custom orders?
You provide your pricing matrix or formula (e.g., price per square inch, material costs, setup fees). The VA will use this logic to respond to emails or Etsy messages with accurate quotes, only escalating highly complex jobs to you.
How does the "Free Project Manager" work?
Your project manager handles the VA's onboarding, QA checks (e.g., ensuring mockups look correct before sending to clients), and task distribution at no extra cost. We manage the admin side so you can focus on production.
