Client story
Hear it from GigCX Marketplace
Cole Pritchard, Vice President at GigCX Marketplace, on what working with KeyPlayers has been like.
What an executive assistant agency should actually do
Most agencies stop at the placement
The usual model is simple: an agency sends a résumé, you do the interview, and from the first day it’s your problem. Training, tools, performance and the rough patch in month four all land back on you.
We built KeyPlayers the other way around. The placement is where our work starts. We stay involved for as long as you’re a client, with a client success team whose job is to keep your assistant performing.
We hire for comprehension, not credentials
After more than 200 placements, the lesson is that the job title barely matters. Two companies can both hire an “executive assistant” and need completely different people. What decides whether it works is how well the person understands you and your business.
So that’s what we test hardest: written and spoken English, comprehension, judgment on real tasks, and how they think on their feet in live and recorded interviews. Fewer than 1% of applicants get through.
Trained on the systems we run our own company on
Our leadership team comes from marketing, advertising and go-to-market. Every KeyPlayer goes through KeyPlayers University before day one, including the parts most assistants never learn: using AI past the chat box, working with prompt libraries, and running the follow-up systems we use ourselves.

Questions founders ask us
How is KeyPlayers different from other executive assistant agencies?
We train every assistant on AI before day one, keep a client success team behind them after the placement, and back every placement with a lifetime replacement guarantee.
What kind of companies do you work with?
Founder-led companies, agencies, SaaS businesses, consultants, coaches and online service providers.
How do you find assistants this good?
Thousands of people apply. We test written and spoken English, comprehension, judgment and real tasks, then interview live and on recording. Fewer than 1% are hired.
What does AI-trained actually mean?
Before day one, every KeyPlayer goes through KeyPlayers University: executive operations plus the AI tools that speed up research, drafting, follow-up and reporting. You don’t need to know anything about AI to benefit.
Do I meet my assistant before they start?
Yes. You interview your match and approve the fit. If you’re not sold, we line up another candidate.
What happens if it isn’t the right fit later on?
Our lifetime replacement guarantee covers you. If your KeyPlayer is ever the wrong fit, we replace them at no cost for as long as you’re a client.
Who manages my KeyPlayer day to day?
You direct the work. Our client success team handles check-ins, performance, cover and development in the background.
Is my KeyPlayer dedicated to my business?
Yes. One dedicated person working your hours as part of your team, never a shared pool.
Where are KeyPlayers based?
Most of our team is in the Philippines, where we can be this selective: a deep pool of experienced professionals with strong English, including people who have worked at companies like Amazon, Google, IBM and Walmart.
Can they work inside our existing tools?
Yes. They work in your systems with access you control, and they’re trained across common tools like Google Workspace, Slack, Notion, HubSpot, Asana and ClickUp.
How do you handle security and access?
Access is scoped to what the role needs and stays under your control. Processes are documented in your systems, so knowledge never lives in one person’s head.
What happens on the call?
We map what’s landing on you each week, scope the role that takes it off your plate, and walk you through next steps. It’s a fit conversation, not a hard sell.
