Experience you can lean on

I'm not a general virtual assistant. I bring years of real office management experience to every engagement.

  • No learning curve. I've managed complex administrative operations firsthand. I hit the ground running.

  • Flexible engagements. Hourly, project-based, or monthly retainer, structured around what works for you.

  • Remote or on-site. I work wherever the job requires, serving businesses throughout the Dallas Metroplex.

  • No overhead, no agency fees, no long-term commitments. Get the benefit of an experienced office manager without the cost of a full-time hire.

  • Professionally insured. Pivot Office Services carries E&O/Professional Liability Insurance, so you can engage with confidence.

On-site rates reflect fully equipped, hands-on work at your location — I bring my own computer, monitor, and gear, and reserve the day for you. The flat travel charge covers round-trip mileage and drive time only, so nothing is billed twice. Many projects can also be handled remotely at the lower rate — your choice. On-site visits have a four-hour minimum.

All engagements are covered by a signed Service Agreement and Statement of Work — happy to walk you through them before you commit.

The Professional in Transition

Rachel Hartman, owner of Pivot Office Services — smiling in a pinstripe blazer, glasses in hand

Meet Rachel

Dallas-raised, three decades inside offices of every size — and one honest realization. That's how Pivot began.

I'm Rachel Hartman. Dallas-raised, UNT-educated, and back home in Big D after a few years in Scottsdale.

I've spent nearly three decades inside offices of every size: managing the finances and technology for a family-owned consulting firm, supporting executives from the C-suite at Omni Hotels to EVP level at Michaels, and developing private-brand products for mass-market retail.

Pivot began with an honest realization. Everywhere I looked, businesses were paying premium rates for inexperienced help, and owners were surrendering their best hours to paperwork. The winemaker stuck at a desk instead of out in the vines. The manager who just needs an extra pair of hands to carry a big project across the finish line. Time is the one thing a business can't buy back, so I built a business that gives it back: your hours return to the work you actually love. That's Pivot — the expertise without the markup, or the overhead of a full-time hire.

Beyond that? I'm the geek who genuinely enjoys getting your Wi-Fi working, showing you what your iPhone can really do, and passing along the little shortcuts that make everyday computer work easier. But underneath all of it is something simpler: I care about people and their happiness. I'm the sort who once hand-made birthday cards for every senior on my Meals on Wheels route. Helping people work better isn't just my business. It's my nature.
