Inbox triage and prioritization
Your EA reviews incoming messages, flags urgent items, archives noise, and surfaces what actually needs your attention.
Fractional Email & Inbox Management
Your inbox shouldn't run your day
The average professional spends 28% of their workday on email. That's over 11 hours a week triaging, responding, and following up. Nacho's Executive Assistants manage your inbox so you can focus on the work that moves your business forward.
Can I delegate email & inbox management to a Virtual Assistant?
Yes. Nacho matches you with a vetted, 100% US-based Executive Assistant who owns your email & inbox management every week, not a one-off task. Onboarding starts with a $300 Delegation Strategy Plan, your Talent Budget starts at $1,000 a month, and matching takes about a week.

What we handle
What your Executive Assistant takes over
Recurring work your US-based Executive Assistant owns from week one. No vague promises.
Draft responses and follow-ups
Routine replies handled in your voice, with templates for common scenarios and escalation rules for anything that needs your direct input.
Scheduling coordination via email
Meeting requests, availability confirmations, and calendar holds managed directly from your inbox without the back-and-forth.
Client and vendor communication
Regular touchpoints, status updates, and check-ins sent on your behalf, keeping relationships warm without eating your calendar.
Newsletter and subscription management
Unsubscribe from noise, organize important newsletters into folders, and surface industry updates worth reading.
Slack and messaging overflow
For teams using Slack or Teams alongside email, your EA monitors channels, flags action items, and ensures nothing gets buried in the scroll.
How it works
How the handoff works
During onboarding, you and your Client Success Manager define your inbox rules: what gets forwarded to you immediately, what your EA can handle independently, and what needs a drafted response for your approval. Most clients start with a 'triage and flag' approach for the first week, then expand to independent responses as your EA learns your communication style. You'll get a daily summary of what was handled and what needs your attention.

What delegating to Nacho actually looks like
This is ongoing delegation to one vetted, US-based person, not a task posted to a marketplace.

Good questions
Frequently asked questions
How does an EA learn my communication style?
Your EA studies your sent messages during the first week, noting tone, common phrases, and response patterns. Most EAs are drafting accurate responses within 5-7 days. You review and approve drafts until you're confident, then they handle responses independently.
Will people know they're emailing an EA instead of me?
That's up to you. Some clients prefer their EA to sign off as themselves, while others have their EA respond from a shared alias. Either way, the goal is seamless communication that matches your voice.
What if something urgent comes in?
Your triage rules define what counts as urgent and how your EA escalates: text, Slack message, or phone call. Response time for flagged items is typically under 15 minutes during business hours.
Can an EA manage multiple email accounts?
Yes. Many clients have their EA manage both a personal and business inbox, or monitor a shared team inbox alongside their individual one. Your Delegation Strategy Plan defines the scope and access for each account.
