As schedules get busier and time runs out, often it’s hard to juggle everything one needs to do throughout the day, and this is where Exec comes in handy. This company offers residents of San Francisco instant help when requested. They have a team of people who run errands from 9am-9pm every day for only $25/hour.
Whether you need house cleaning, vacation planning, deliveries or grocery shopping, they have you covered. It’s like having a personal assistant on call, and you don’t have to be filthy rich to use this service, which is super awesome. Some recent examples of errands that have been done by the Execs include filling a client's fridge with coconut water, getting Giants tickets and shelf installations in a salon.
Clients are billed for the services rendered directly on their credit card. The Exec also has a division called ‘Exec for Companies’ that is specialized in providing corporations with instant aide when needed during busy times.
