TRISTAN SKILES
CHIEF OPERATING OFFICER (COO)
Tristan Skiles, COO at VBS Real Estate™, specializes in operations, human resources, and accounts receivable. She works directly with our team's department managers, creates new processes, reviews and audits current virtual assistants, checks in with clients, and establishes systems to ensure that our company's high standard of accuracy and consistency is being met. Tristan also hires all new team members, signs on new clients, processes payroll, and manages accounts and invoices.
Tristan's past work experience is in Administration. Before VBS, she worked at a junior college, where she played a key role in setting up new systems and training employees. She left the college to work from home as a Virtual Assistant, after having her third child and was determined to teach herself everything she needed to know to be successful. Tristan spent countless hours watching videos, reading material, and working with unfamiliar programs in order to provide clients with the services they needed. Her first role with VBS was in administrative support, later transitioning into a Listing Coordinator where she worked her way up to the manager of that department. As VBS grew, Tristan continued to learn and use her skills to help Tiffany expand the company from only 10 clients to a well-known Real Estate Virtual Assistant Company helping over 200 real estate agents & teams, supported by a team of 20 highly trained virtual assistants, listing coordinators, and transaction coordinators.
Considered by her clients to be organized, creative, responsive, and trustworthy, Tristan places a premium value on the production of quality work by taking the time to understand the needs and wants of every client. She values integrity and accountability and her dedication and genuine interest in the success of her clients ensure that consistent and high-quality work is produced. Tristan’s clients are free to focus on what they love to do, while she handles all of the details.
Although VBS is owned by CEO, Tiffany Haynes, Tristan loves the company and takes ownership in every part of it, "VBS has my heart! I love the team we have built and the clients who have made it a success. This company has been such a blessing to me and my family in so many ways. I can't imagine ever working for anyone else."
