From Purpose to People: Why I Started Neta Virtual Team

By Simeon Hoffmann

My journey into business didn’t begin in a boardroom.

It started in community centres, youth programs, Indigenous communities, and on the ground with people who needed more than just services — they needed someone to believe in their potential. For over 20 years, I worked across not-for-profit and community sectors, leading teams, building programs, and pushing for change that mattered.

But over time, I began to see something else: the systems that support people often fail the people running them. Leaders burning out. Businesses stretched thin. Purpose getting lost under the weight of paperwork, admin, and rising costs.

I knew there had to be a better way to build — one that honoured both mission and sustainability.

That’s where Neta Virtual Team (NVT) was born.

I didn’t start NVT to follow a trend. I started it because I knew what it was like to carry too much — to lead a team, serve clients, grow a business, and still lie awake wondering how to make it all work.

NVT exists to give business owners like you what I wish I had years ago:

• A team you can trust

• Support you can afford

• Space to focus on what matters most

We provide high-quality virtual professionals who are fully trained, aligned to your goals, and integrated into your business like they’ve always been part of the team.

We’re not a platform. We’re a people-first solution — backed by real leadership, real support, and a deep understanding of what business owners are really carrying behind the scenes.

I believe the future of work isn’t just digital — it’s human, flexible, and sustainable.

And I’d love to help you build toward that future.
