Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about delegating your institutional administration.

Do your VAs know how to use specific Museum CMS software?
Yes. We specifically source VAs with experience in data management and administrative tools. While they may have baseline knowledge of systems like PastPerfect or TMS, the real value is in the Managed Service: your Project Manager will create specific SOPs based on your institution's unique cataloging nomenclature to ensure the VA executes data entry perfectly.
How do you handle sensitive donor data and privacy?
Confidentiality is critical for non-profits. All VAs sign strict NDAs. We recommend using secure credential managers (like LastPass) so VAs never see your actual passwords. Your Project Manager will establish strict protocols ensuring VAs access CRMs like Altru or Tessitura only via secure channels, maintaining donor privacy and institutional integrity.
Can they help with grant administration?
While our VAs are not typically primary Grant Writers, they are excellent at Grant Administration. They can research potential foundations, organize submission calendars, gather standard institutional documents (like 501c3 letters and board lists), and format final proposals for your review.
Can they communicate with our members directly?
Yes. Under your direction and using approved templates, VAs can manage general inquiry inboxes, reply to members regarding renewal statuses, and coordinate logistics for group tours or facility rentals. They act as a professional digital extension of your front desk.
