Welcome to ‘Slate Online Solutions’!

Built to Support Businesses That Are Ready to Scale

Slate Online Solutions provides high-level virtual assistant support for established online businesses that need reliable, flexible, behind-the-scenes support to scale. We operate on a monthly retainer model, giving our clients access to a full in-house team without the complexity of hiring, managing, or coordinating multiple contractors.

This isn’t task-based support.
It’s operational infrastructure.

About Us

A Smarter Way to Get Support

Most online business owners don’t need more help, they need the right help. Support that adapts as priorities shift. Support that understands systems, content, launches, and operations. Support that doesn’t require micromanagement.

That’s why Slate Online Solutions works as a fully managed support team under one monthly retainer. Your scope flexes. Your support evolves. The structure stays solid.

Every task. Every skill. One team.

What Sets Us Apart

We do things differently here. Your retainer includes:

  • Project management oversight

  • Quality control built into every task

  • Senior-level thinking, not just task execution

  • Support designed to scale with your business

  • Clean systems, clear communication, consistent delivery

This is support that feels like an extension of your business - not another thing to manage.

What We Believe

  • We believe support should make your business feel lighter - not more complicated.

  • We believe scaling doesn’t require more hustle, more tools, or more people - it requires better structure, clearer priorities, and the right support behind the scenes.

  • We believe business owners shouldn’t have to choose between quality and momentum, or constantly decide which parts of their business deserve support this month.

  • We believe great support is proactive, thoughtful, and reliable - and that it should adapt as your business evolves.

  • And we believe one strong, well-managed team will always outperform a scattered group of contractors.

These beliefs shape how we work, how we communicate, and how we support our clients every single day.

Oh! And we believe in having fun while we do it! You can count on us to be working with smiles on, loving what we do, how we do it and who we do it for!

What We Don’t Do

  • We don’t operate in chaos, and we don’t support businesses that expect us to.

  • We don’t take on clients who want task-by-task pricing, constant renegotiation, or reactive, last-minute execution without planning.

  • We don’t replace leadership, decision-making, or clarity - you bring the vision, and we help bring it to life.

  • We don’t micromanage, and we don’t expect to be micromanaged.

  • And we don’t stretch our team thin to “do it all” at the expense of quality.

Instead, we work with clients who value structure, communication, and thoughtful support - and who understand that sustainable growth requires systems, not scrambling.

About Andrea (The Founder)

Led by Experience, Built with Intention

Slate Online Solutions is led by Andrea Slate - an operations strategist and business support expert who has spent years working behind the scenes of online businesses. Andrea understands what actually breaks when businesses grow: systems, communication, capacity, and follow-through.

Her approach blends structure with flexibility, strategy with execution, and leadership with care - so that clients feel supported without being overwhelmed.

In short (or is it ‘TLDR’ now?) - Andrea sees patterns EVERYWHERE. And the pattern she was seeing couldn’t be ignored.

Smart, capable business owners were doing everything right - selling consistently, launching offers, building audiences - yet still felt overwhelmed, stretched thin, and constantly in reactive mode. Not because they lacked talent or discipline, but because their support systems couldn’t keep up with their growth.

Many had tried hiring individual VA’s or contractors. Others were juggling different specialists, platforms, and workflows. The result was fragmented support, inconsistent quality, endless explaining, and more time spent managing help than actually being helped. (And don’t even get her started on turnover and the cost of not finding the right fit)!

Andrea saw that the real problem wasn’t a lack of support - it was the wrong support model.

Businesses don’t operate in isolated tasks. Admin touches content. Content connects to launches. Launches rely on systems. Systems break without oversight. When support is siloed or priced by task, business owners are forced to constantly choose what gets support and what gets dropped.

Why Andrea Built ‘Slate Online Solutions’

Slate Online Solutions was built to remove that friction.

By offering one consistent rate and access to a fully managed team, Slate Online Solutions allows support to flex with the business - without renegotiation, micromanagement, or constant decision fatigue. Instead of asking, “Can I afford help with this?” clients can focus on what actually matters most in their business at any given moment.

This model gives clients space to lead, create, and scale - while the backend is handled with structure, care, and consistency.

  • Thoughtful, proactive support

  • Clear communication and reliable timelines

  • Strategic thinking paired with execution

  • A team that understands the full picture - not just isolated tasks

  • A dedicated Project Manager as their main point of contact

  • Quality control on every single task

Andrea leads the team with intention, ensuring every client experience reflects the same standard of excellence.

Our Promise To You
