The company is also known as Peachtree Virtual Assistants and Peachtree Versatile Assistants. The foundation of the company is helping you. We support the success of our communities, our clients, our teammates, our partners and our neighbors.
How did Peachtree VA get here?
We started in 2014. In 2022, John McKenna, founder of the Emerald Group, acquired the company and became CEO. John has said that we do not want to become the largest VA staffing firm in the industry. We want clients to stay with us for the long term.

What makes Peachtree VA different?
Four things set us apart.
- U.S.-based professionals. All of our virtual assistants and bookkeepers are based in the United States. We use no offshore call center.
- Method Matching. We match on competency and chemistry: skill set, personality, culture, and capacity. A real person makes the match, not an algorithm. Read how Method Matching works.
- A dedicated Relationship Specialist. This person oversees your partnership, helps with onboarding, and stays available for questions or course corrections.
- The 100% Matching Guarantee. If a match is not right, we rematch you at no extra cost. The guarantee has no expiration date.
How do we vet our people?
Every virtual assistant and bookkeeper clears multi-stage interviews, skills assessments, background checks and an NDA before they meet a client. Most clients are matched in as little as 10 business days. Our virtual assistants are 1099 independent contractors, so we handle the contractual and compliance side.
