Florists, Meet Your Behind-the-Blooms LifelineA VA Who Keeps the Details in Bloom

You’re on your feet designing, sourcing, and setting up but the admin never stops. YSO matches florists with VAs trained to handle quotes, deliveries, vendor coordination, and client communication.

We handle the inbox so you can handle the flowers.

You work in beauty and precision. But behind-the-scenes tasks rarely feel that way.

We understand the pace of events, installations, and setups and bring calm to the backend of your floral business.

Lost in the Petal Pile

You're designing installations while new leads sit unopened for days.

Setup + Drop-Off Mayhem

Delivery windows, venue setups, returns, it’s too much to manage solo.

Contracts

Collecting Dust

You’re buried in stems but paperwork still needs to be signed and paid.

Mood Boards That Never Get Sent

From sending visuals to collecting feedback, admin tasks just don’t get done.

Every Order is

a Custom Sprint

Every event starts with a blank doc and a blank calendar.

Too Many Roles,

One Designer

You’re the designer, the driver, the sales team and it’s wearing you out.

Think of your VA like a design assistant who handles logistics while you focus on creating beauty.

Will Gill, Founder

"As my entertainment business started to bring in more bookings, I found myself spending more time on backend tasks than actual performances. From contracts & invoices to initial meetings & finalization meetings, doing all of this alone eventually caught up to me. Not to mention, an increase in my family means that time needed to be allotted strategically. Enter YSO.

 

Through a referral of a cohort in the same industry, I met Jenna. I was quite hesitant for about the first 4 weeks of working with her team. This is because I assumed only I could pull off managing behind the scenes work and "talking the way I talk" to clients. With the creation of an SOP, Jenna was able to learn my how and why my company books and executes events. This insured that a new team member can always be brought in and fit right into place in little to no time. Jenna and YSO even has their own dedicated team who shadows my new hires to make sure nothing slips through the cracks during the learning process.

 

I could go on, but now I feel like Im exposing the secrets to what makes YSO the best IMO. Jenna is a strongly recommended long term ally for all small businesses and startups."

100+ businesses have trusted our virtual assistants to handle their administrative tasks so they can focus on what they do best.

Need something custom? We've got you. Book a call and we'll walk you through options.

"But will they really get it?" Yes. Here's why.

We understand the unique needs of event vendors and have helped hundreds of owners reclaim their time

How do I know they'll understand my business? We specialize in working with trades and home service businesses. Your VA will already know how to support businesses like yours—and we stay involved to make sure they're delivering. They're familiar with industry terminology, service calls, scheduling needs, and common customer inquiries for your specific business type.

Do I have to train them? Nope. That's our job. We'll onboard them to your tools, workflows, and customers. Our virtual assistants are pre-trained in common home service business operations, including ServiceTitan, QuickBooks, and other industry-standard tools. We handle the training so you can focus on your work.

What if it doesn't work out? We guarantee a replacement VA, fast and free. But 90% of our matches stick long-term. We carefully vet and match each assistant based on your specific business needs, which is why our satisfaction rate is so high.

What's the cost? Less than hiring in-house—and no overhead. We offer flexible packages starting from 20 hours per month for solo owner-operators, 40 hours per month for small team owners (including admin, customer support, and light bookkeeping), and 40 hours per week for scaling home service companies needing full business support.

What types of tasks can a virtual assistant handle for my business? Our virtual assistants can handle a wide range of tasks: answering and returning customer calls, scheduling jobs and sending confirmations, following up on estimates and unpaid invoices, managing your inbox and calendar, entering receipts/mileage/expenses into QuickBooks, tracking leads and CRM updates, posting updates to social media, and ordering materials or permits.

Can virtual assistants use our existing business software? Yes, our VAs are trained to work with home service industry software including Service Titan, Jobber, Housecall Pro, QuickBooks, and other common business management tools. We'll create custom SOPs for your specific systems to ensure seamless integration.

How do your virtual assistants handle emergency service calls? Our VAs follow your specific protocols for emergencies - they can quickly identify true emergencies, prioritize urgent calls, gather key information about the issue, and immediately coordinate with your on-call service professionals. We understand that emergency response is critical in the home service industry.

Is there a minimum contract period? We keep it simple with month-to-month agreements. No long-term contracts required. We're confident in our service and know you'll want to keep your assistant once you see the difference they make for your business.

Our Story

We’re Jenna and Alexis — two serial entrepreneurs who’ve been in the trenches of building and scaling service businesses. We know exactly what it’s like to juggle everything: answering customer calls, managing invoices, scheduling jobs, chasing down payments — all while trying to grow.

That’s why we started Your Startup Operations (YSO) — to build the kind of support system we wish we had when we were running our own companies solo.

Our Virtual Assistant (VA) services are designed specifically for home-service providers who are ready to get out of the day-to-day chaos and focus on what they do best. Whether you're an electrician, plumber, landscaper, or contractor, we help take admin, scheduling, customer service, and follow-ups off your plate — with trained, managed VAs that actually get your business.

We’re not a faceless VA directory. We’re operators, just like you — and we’re here to help you run a tighter, more profitable, and way less stressful business.
