The nature of the Virtual Assistant service to shut down abruptly rang some alarm bells. I’m thinking that is to prevent their Virtual Assistants from making arrangements and taking their clients with them.
This is confirmed by:
1) Disabling the @zirtual email addresses and phone numbers. The way the customers contact their assistants
2) Sending an email to customers that they’re “pausing” their service, but telling their employees that they’ve “ceased operations”.
Its telling that the suddeness is to sell off the customer database WHILE the customers are still hot.
Now this is a supreme dick move. The QUESTION is, who made the call. The founder or the investors? As we know in Silicon Valley founders and investors LOVE to play lip service to “doing the right thing”. Now when shit hits the fan, its obvious they don’t always walk the talk.
