Our Story
From Frustration to Focus: The RiConnect Journey
Our founder, after leaving a corporate job, became a virtual assistant. He saw firsthand how business owners were overwhelmed by daily tasks that didn’t drive growth. These tasks were holding them back from scaling their businesses. That’s why Riconnect Virtual Assistance Services was born in 2017.


A Story of Strength and Growth: In 2021, Rico, our founder faced a personal challenge – a cancer diagnosis with stage 2E Nodular Sclerosis Hodgkin Lymphoma (NSHL). With determination and a smile, he continued to manage our assistants and provide the stellar service that made RiConnect the leading VA agency in Fiji, New Zealand, Australia, and the United Kingdom. During his treatment, he discovered a renewed appreciation for fitness and exercise. This revelation has become a core value at RiConnect, influencing how we want to better the lives of everyone we work with.
Your Success, Our Mission: Our ultimate goal is to empower you to achieve your business and personal goals with more time, freedom, and overall well-being. By freeing you from time-consuming tasks, you can focus on what brings you joy and fuels your physical and mental health.
Beyond Service, Inspiration: Our founder’s journey is a constant reminder of the impact we make. It serves as an inspiration to our team to take our work seriously and deliver exceptional service every time.
Join the RiConnect Journey: Embark on the RiConnect journey towards business success and personal fulfillment. Let’s work together to rediscover the joy in what you do.
