Suggestions to lighten your load

One of the biggest ‘stealers of time’ is email.

As you can see, the list of tasks that virtual assistants can handle for you is diverse. The fact is that working with irtual assistant has gone far further than most people ever thought possible. It’s more than just filtering email and managing your social media (although that’s covered, too!). It’s about business growth. It’s about waking up and understanding that, as business owners, you shouldn’t be doing half the stuff that you’re doing on a day to day basis!

I hope this list serves as a bit of a spring board for some of you yet to take the VA plunge, and perhaps a ‘go to’ source of additional potential, for those of you that are already utilising the power of virtual staff in your business.

Over the years, I’ve developed a very good knowledge of Microsoft Office, in particular, Word, Excel, Powerpoint, and Outlook, and look forward to using these skills to enhance your business. I will ensure that your document or presentation is professionally produced to impress your target audience and customers.

In addition, I have vast experience in business management; arranging meetings, conferences, and events; booking UK and worldwide travel (including booking flights & hotels, arranging visas and currency, researching hotels and local transport); purchase order and invoice management, social media updates and so much more.

I’d love the opportunity to discuss your requirements further and see where I can help to release you to develop and grow your business. Please use the Contact Me page to leave your details and any comments or questions and I’ll be in touch.
