Bespoke and Different Support Service

Bespoke and Different Support Service

As a seasoned executive virtual assistant with over 20 years of corporate experience, I pride myself on offering a truly customized services with a boutique flair. While many virtual assistants may offer similar services, my approach is different, and I believe it sets me apart from the rest.

Firstly, I believe that communication is key when it comes to working with clients. That’s why I take the time to get to know each of my clients personally, understanding their specific needs and goals, as well as their communication preferences. Whether my clients prefer email, phone calls, or video chats, I make sure that our internal systems are set up to their advantage.

Secondly, I know that every business differs, and that’s why I don’t offer a one-size-fits-all cookie cutter approach. My approach is bespoke. I take the time to understand the individual needs of each business I work with, and I tailor my services accordingly. This means that my clients receive personalized attention and a customized strategy that is designed to help them achieve their specific goals. With that in mind, I also realize that goals morph and change over the course of a working relationship. To that end, my services are designed to be adaptable and grow.

My services go beyond what you might expect from a typical virtual assistant. I am actually way more than a virtual assistant and am also a personal assistant. In addition to traditional administrative tasks such as scheduling, email management, and presentation design (just to name a few), I also offer business management services. This means that I can help with everything from project management and social media to HR support.

I recognize that all of you [my clients and potential clients] are “uniquely” unique, with specific needs, preferences, and goals. As your support manager, I understand that what works for one does not necessarily work for all when it comes to providing services. I take the time to listen to my clients and understand their needs before offering any support solution. This way we are positioned for success and I can provide you an experience that is truly valuable.

While there is a plethora of remote support services available, it’s important to remember that not all of them are created equal. When searching for support, it’s crucial to do your research and check references to ensure that you’re working with someone who is reliable, trustworthy, and skilled. Additionally, it’s important to trust your gut feeling when deciding on a virtual assistant. If something doesn’t feel right or you have any doubts, it’s better to move on and find someone who you feel completely comfortable working with. Recognize the fact that this person will be an invaluable asset to your business, so it’s important to take the time to find someone who is the perfect fit for you.

Overall, I believe that I can offer you a worthwhile and boutique experience that sets me apart from the rest. My goal is to take your business to the next level. Feel free to reach out!
