Carrie Jones/The Hive Solution
The Hive Solution is a virtual office assistant company offering phone answering and admin for entrepreneurs who have become a victim of their own success. Founded in 2014, clients virtually share office services with other small to medium-sized businesses and start-ups. The Hive bees support skilled trades, attorneys and busy professionals who need office services, but not necessarily the overhead of a brick and mortar office. Choosing The Hive Solution helps businesses offer that extra old-fashioned customer service touch that most are lacking today. Services include phone answering, admin, vacation service, light bookkeeping, data entry, research, graphic design and Send Out Cards account management. Packages include Messenger Bee (a messaging service), Carpenter Bee, Honey Bee, Bumble Bee (Graphic Design), and Bank of Hours (Admin only).
