Find what you need

This guide covers the company: how it is put together and how the pieces connect. Your own schedule, client assignment, tools, and targets are covered privately by your manager during onboarding.

SECTION 01About Armasourcing

Armasourcing is a remote staffing company. We connect skilled virtual assistants and customer service reps with businesses that need dedicated remote team members. We are based in the Philippines, and our clients are primarily in the United States and Australia.

Our approach is hands-on, and that is the part worth understanding. We do not place people and disappear. We monitor performance, coach, and step in early when something is drifting, because a client who stays is what keeps your seat stable. Every platform in Section 4 exists to serve that one idea.

What we do
Remote staffing
VAs and full contact-center teams, recruited, trained, and managed by us.
Where our clients are

Which is why shifts are set to a client's timezone, not ours.
How we earn

SECTION 02How We Are Organised

We are a lean team on purpose. Fewer layers means a question reaches someone who can answer it on the same day.

Eli Gutilban
Founder and CEO
Your managers
Operations Manager
Client relations, schedules, tools, processes
QA Manager
Performance monitoring, coaching, evaluations
Two delivery lines
Placement line
Virtual Assistants
Each assigned to a dedicated client, reporting to the managers above

No team lead layer here. A VA works one-to-one with their client, so the managers above are your direct support.

Contact center line
Team Lead
On-shift people leader for the contact center team
Customer Service Reps
Contact center agents on a client program

The two lines are deliberately different. If you are a VA you work directly with your client and the managers above. If you are a CSR you sit on a team with a Team Lead who is your first stop during a shift.

Roles explained

RoleWhat they own
Founder and CEOCompany direction, taking on new clients, business development, and final authority on hiring decisions.
Operations ManagerDay-to-day team management, client communication, onboarding new hires, scheduling and leave, tool access, and process improvement.
QA ManagerReviews Arma Tracker activity data, runs performance reviews, coaches on improvement, and flags issues before a client notices them.
Team Lead, contact centerThe on-shift leader for a CSR team: runs the shift huddle, grades and coaches calls against the quality bar, watches adherence live, handles in-shift escalations, and is the first person a CSR raises anything with.
Team members (VAs and CSRs)Execute the work for an assigned client, track time in Arma Tracker, communicate daily with the client, stay active in Community, and attend check-ins.
Your reporting line, in one sentence Your day-to-day work direction comes from your client, and if you are a CSR your Team Lead runs your shift. Your performance is monitored by the QA Manager. Anything operational (schedule, leave, pay, tools) goes to the Operations Manager. Anything unresolved escalates to Eli.

SECTION 03Our Clients & How Billing Works

Our clients are businesses that need dedicated remote team members. They range from solo founders with a single VA to companies running full contact-center teams with us.

Every client is on a month-to-month agreement. There are no long-term contracts locking them in, which is the single most important fact on this page: client satisfaction is not a nice-to-have, it is what keeps the account alive. If a client is unhappy, they can leave at the end of the month.

Client details are confidential Never share who our clients are, what work you do for them, or anything you see inside their systems. That applies to social media, group chats, friends, and family. Who you are assigned to is covered privately during your onboarding.

How billing works

Understanding this makes it obvious why tracked hours matter so much:

  1. The client pays Armasourcing a monthly fee based on hours worked, taken from Arma Tracker.
  2. Armasourcing pays you your agreed rate, based on those same tracked hours.
  3. The cycle is monthly, from the 1st to the last day of each month.
Never discuss rates with a client Your rate and what Armasourcing charges the client are both confidential. Do not share what you earn, and do not ask what they pay. This is standard practice in staffing and it protects you as much as us.

If a client leaves

Because agreements are month-to-month, a client can end theirs at any time. If that happens:

  • You will be told immediately, not left to find out.
  • We will work to reassign you to another client.
  • If nothing is open right away, we will discuss a transition timeline with you directly.
  • This is usually not about your performance. Businesses change direction, budgets move, priorities shift.

SECTION 04The Platforms You Will Use

We built our own tools instead of renting them, so nothing about how you are measured is a black box. Here is each one and what it means for you.

Armasourcing Community
townhall.scalewitharma.com

Your daily workspace. Team chat, project channels, task boards, the leaderboard, wellness check-ins, and the Owlet assistant. Treat it as the office you walk into.

Use it every day
Arma Tracker
tracker.armasourcing.com

Your time and attendance. The desktop app that records your hours and activity while you work. Your pay is calculated from what it logs, so starting and stopping it correctly matters.

Use it every day
QA Agent Dashboard
qa.armasourcing.com

Where your performance is reviewed. Syncs your tracked data hourly and surfaces activity, idle time, and hours. Your QA Manager uses it to spot problems early and coach you, not to catch you out.

Your manager uses this
Performance Dashboard
dashboard.armasourcing.com

What your client sees. Weekly summaries, hours breakdowns, and a rating of your work. This is the view that builds or erodes client trust, and it updates from your tracked data automatically.

Client facing
Onboarding Hub
onboard.armasourcing.com

You are using it now. Your onboarding checklist, this resource library, and your milestones. Your progress here is visible to your manager, so finish your steps on time.

During onboarding
Talent Portal
talent.armasourcing.com

How you got here. Applications, assessments, and interviews run through it. Worth knowing because referrals you send in will land here too.

Your client will have their own tools too Expect a Slack, an Asana, a CRM, a dialer, or whatever their team already runs on. You will be given access during onboarding. Learn them fast: most clients expect you to be comfortable inside the first week, and asking early questions is far better than guessing quietly.

SECTION 05A Day, End to End

Here is what a normal day looks like and what happens behind it.

WhenWhat happens
Shift startStart Arma Tracker, check Community for announcements, review your tasks for the day.
Through the dayArma Tracker records activity in the background. You work the client's tasks and communicate on their preferred channel.
Every hourThe QA Agent pulls your tracked data and looks at the activity pattern.
End of shiftStop Arma Tracker, send your daily update to the client, update your tasks in Community.
WeeklyThe Performance Dashboard generates a summary for your client. Your QA Manager reviews the team's numbers and gives you feedback if anything needs it.
MonthlyFormal evaluation. The client is invoiced from tracked hours. You get paid.

Where your data goes

One chain connects the hour you work to the money that pays for it:

You work Arma Tracker logs the hours QA Agent reviews activity Dashboard shows the client Invoice raised
Every hour you track is an hour that gets billed and paid

SECTION 06Escalation & Key Takeaways

When something is wrong, work up this ladder. Skipping a rung usually slows the fix down rather than speeding it up.

1
Try it yourself first
Small blockers, things you can research, minor tool glitches. Give it a genuine attempt, then move up.
2
Your Team Lead, if you are a CSR
Anything that comes up during your shift: a call you are unsure about, adherence, a customer you could not resolve. VAs skip this rung and go to their client.
2
Your client, if you are a VA
Task clarification, what to prioritise, anything specific to how their business works.
3
Operations Manager or QA Manager
Schedule conflicts, tool access, performance concerns, anything involving more than one person.
4
Eli
Anything unresolved after a manager, pay problems, a client escalation, or a concern you cannot raise with your manager.
