Real people that deliver real results.
We know a thing or two about building powerful teams that operate fully remotely. Learn more about who we are and how virtual assistants can contribute to your business.
We are Contractors – Above All Else.
No corporate nonsense here. We are contractors by trade and we are proud of that fact. Our approach to building teams virtually is a bit different than you’ll find anywhere else. We have built the entirety of this business around training VA’s specifically for the contracting service industry. And it makes a world of difference.

Our Story
It’s not quite a fairytale, but we are proud of where we are and where we have come from.
Zerva is the brainchild of a trio of professionals with unique backgrounds. Kevin and Josh have built their careers in the landscaping industry and bring with them years of business management and ownership experience. They have the “typical” landscaper story – mowing lawns at a young age, learning things the hard way, but persevering and making something of it. If you ask them, they will humbly tell you they still haven’t made much of it, but 15 years later and well into 8-figures of revenue say otherwise. A friendship that started in college has culminated in multiple successful shared business ventures, including Zerva most recently.
Their paths crossed with the third founding member – Erdison. Kevin and Josh founded a landscape design company, SCAPES, in 2020 in a business model where they work with landscape contractors as an outsourced, managed design service provider. This endeavor created high demand for talent in a rapidly scaling business aimed at solving problems for landscapers. After exhausting seemingly every avenue to build teams organically in the United States, they turned abroad to tap into the international talent pool to support the growing business. This initiative is where they first met Erdison. After trying to build teams in multiple countries, Kevin and Josh elected to invest into the Philippines to support SCAPES. Erdison joined the team as Operations Manager to continue sourcing and developing high-level talent.
When some of our landscape contractor clients caught wind of the success SCAPES was able to achieve with building remote teams, they wanted in! We helped them out and placed our first virtual assistant in 2022. Zerva was formally introduced in 2023 after a years’ worth of process and procedural development to ensure we would provide the level of service that was worthy of putting our name on it.
Today, we are extremely proud of the teams we have helped service providers build throughout the United States and beyond! We continue to push the envelope every day to advance the success of our clients and remote team members alike, relentlessly pursuing constant improvement, and sharing in the journey of the lives that we can positively impact – we hope to earn the opportunity to do the same for you and your team.
