Questions about the Virtual Teams
Who actually does the work?
Dedicated professionals assigned to your account. You work with the same people every month, building a real understanding of your business. No junior staff rotation.
How is this different from freelancers?
Reliability, accountability, and backup coverage. If your dedicated person is unavailable, work continues. Plus, you get ZOPPLY’s processes, tools, and quality standards.
What's the minimum commitment?
3-month initial engagement for all Virtual Team services. This allows proper onboarding and time to demonstrate results. Month-to-month thereafter with 30-day notice.
Can I combine Virtual Teams with automation products?
Absolutely. Virtual Teams count toward bundle product counts and work seamlessly with automation products. Many clients pair Marketing with Lead Automation.
What if I need more capacity?
All services have upgrade tiers. You can also add project-based work on top of your retainer. We’ll recommend the right level during your assessment.
Do I need existing automations for Maintenance?
Maintenance is designed for businesses with existing automations (5+ workflows recommended). If you’re starting fresh, consider our automation products with setup included.
