My mission is …
To help small business owners run their business rather than their business running them(!) so they can live life as they want, as they dreamed.
My formula is …
Take Control
In order for you to take control of your business firstly you need to know what you’re aiming for, what’s the dream? Running a business isn’t easy but if you know what the goal is, you always have something to aim for! Next you need to find out where you are – what are you spending your time on, for example – then work out the route to your destination.
Automate
Once you have your processes and know what’s being done in your business the key to freedom is automating what you can. This will not only give you more time back to do the things you really want to spend your time doing, but it will maintain consistency as computers and systems are good at doing things the same way every time.
Processorise
Don’t look this word up in the dictionary, I don’t think you’ll find it, but most people instinctively understand it. Every business has processes, whether or not they’re formalised and repeatable makes a huge difference to the control you have in your business. It’s not an easy task but processorising your business is key.
Delegate
Some things just need the human touch and aren’t suitable for automation but it doesn’t always need to be you who does it, so this is where you need to learn the art of letting someone else do stuff – but with all the processes you have developed this will be much easier than you might expect.
Hi,
Welcome to my website and thank you for taking the time to find out more about me and my business.
Since I started work at age 17 I have worked in administration. I have experienced the office environment from the bottom up, starting as an Office Junior in a University, becoming a secretary and PA in private industry, then an Office Manager in the NHS and finally a Conference Manager in a private company, before starting my own business as a Virtual PA in my mid-30’s.
Organising is one of my great skills, logic is the key to how I work and software is where the magic happens.
I am excited to be creating a range of resources that pull all of my skills and experiences together to help other small business owners to improve the efficiency of their business systems and processes so that they can reduce the time they spend on paperwork and reduce the stress and chaos of the least favourite part of everyone’s business.
These are all delivered through my Teachable school which you can access via the ‘Resources’ link in the menu at the top of the page.
