Case Study: How ibLE Transformed a Client’s Admin Support—Without the Hassle of a Temp

The Problem: A Fast-Paced Business Drowning in Admin

A growing investment firm came to us with a familiar challenge: their EA team was overstretched, a key assistant was about to go on leave, and urgent projects were piling up.

They considered hiring a traditional temp—but quickly realized the downsides:

❌ Lengthy recruitment process (CV reviews, interviews, and contract negotiations) ❌ Onboarding headaches (training someone new on their systems and expectations) ❌ High costs (agency fees, employer costs, and minimum contract terms) ❌ Inconsistent quality (no guarantee a temp would have the right experience)

They needed support fast, without the hassle of hiring and onboarding a short-term fix.

The Solution: An ibLE EA Who Hit the Ground Running

Instead of hiring a temp, they came to ibLE—and within 24 hours, they were matched with a highly experienced, remote EA who immediately got to work.

🎯 Day 1: The EA was onboarded with zero setup cost (thanks to ibLE’s free first hour) and got familiar with the team’s workflows. 🎯 Week 1: They streamlined scheduling, managed inboxes, and took over key reporting tasks, freeing up the exec team’s time. 🎯 Month 1: They became a critical part of the team, handling complex stakeholder management, project coordination, and internal communications—without adding to the company’s headcount.

The Results: A More Efficient, Less Stressed Team

✔ No recruitment delays—support started in hours, not weeks ✔ No HR admin—no contracts, payroll, or compliance headaches ✔ 50% lower cost compared to hiring a temp through an agency ✔ Consistent support—the same EA every time, so no need to keep retraining ✔ Immediate impact—senior leaders got their time back to focus on strategy, not admin

Why This Business Will Never Use Temps Again

With ibLE, they unlocked high-quality, flexible support without the traditional hiring headache. Their EA continues to be a trusted part of the team, providing on-demand support that flexes with their business needs.
