25.01.2022 In over your head in the office I can help keep you afloat! . I often get asked by clients, what are my tips and tricks for getting organised when there is so much to get done, so many interruptions and only so many hours in the day, how do you remain calm and focused? . Well, everyone has their own methods, but here's a bit of tough love to help you reduce some of that overwhelm.... . You may have 100 things on your to do list, but probably only 10 of them really matter. You need to focus on what truly matters. . Stop Taking on More Work When you find yourself in a hole, the first thing you need to do is stop digging. I am amazed when I see individuals who are behind on their work agreeing to take on more. Learn to say No when appropriate. . Reclaim Your Calendar When trying to catch up, you need to reclaim as much time as possible for your work. Look at your calendar and determine which appointments you need to cancel or reschedule. Then block time for your work and deliverables to ensure that you have adequate time to make up ground. . Minimize Your To Do List If your To Do list has become unmanageable, its time to get it under control. Write it all down, review your list and eliminate any tasks that arent important. Reduce your list to the bare essentials. . Work Priorities Only You need to stop doing anything that isnt a priority. Make sure that lesser priority tasks are not being given attention. Put all of your effort on the top few tasks that must be done. . Put Yourself First Many people have trouble putting themselves first. Make sure you are eating healthily, getting enough rest and finding time in your week to do something you love. . Stop struggling to get too many things done, and instead concentrate on one task at a time. Shut down your tabs, turn off your phone, stop multitasking, concentrate on one thing at a time and focus on the important. . That's the shortened version! Feel free to comment below if you need more tips.... See more

17.01.2022 Here are just some of the ways in which I help my clients reduce their overwhelm... . Update and streamline their administration processes, create to do lists and organise their calendars . Bring their inbox down to zero and help respond to their clients/customer or supplier enquiries quickly and efficiently... . Help with creating content and scheduling of their social media or marketing newsletters . Become a 'gatekeeper' between the client and their disruptions, in some cases I act as the first point of contact for their business . Clear all their daily or monthly admin tasks they don't have time for, whether for personal or business, allowing them space to concentrate on growing their business . Save clients money by not having to employ admin support on a P/T or F/T basis and all the costs associated with that i.e. superannuation, holiday pay, office space etc They use me only when they need me . I act as a sounding board to help to bounce off ideas off and create a realistic plan of action . Help create a balance in their home and work lives by suggesting time saving ideas and tips for a more organised and stress free life . This is just a snapshot. Each client has different needs and requirements. Some have used a PA before, others its a new concept which we work through together and build that trust. . Either way, its important that we both share the same values, passion and enthusiasm for what needs to get done .

17.01.2022 Today I thought Id share with you what happens when you contact me about my services. Whether youve contacted me via email or through the contact form on my website: https://www.elitepaonline.com.au/reach-out Firstly Ill conduct a little research about your business, take a look at your business online and determine whether I feel well be a good fit for each other. Its important to me that I feel a connection with the business that Im supporting.... This is usually in the form of an email or face to face catch up (if youre local to the South West). I also service interstate and overseas clients, so we can Skype or Facetime if youre elsewhere in the world. We have a discussion around what services I can help you with to meet your goals. Im extremely transparent and upfront with what support Im able to offer you, including how my time is managed and how much it will cost. If youd like to proceed, then the next step it to issue you with a Confidentiality and Services Agreement for you to sign, along with an outline of tasks discussed. Once signed were ready to begin! Some clients only require ad hoc support and pay hourly, others need continuous assistance and therefore sign up to a monthly retainer, which offers them discounts along with priority support. Tasks may include: Email Management Inbox Management Responding to customer enquiries and follow up Event Management Database Management Marketing and Newsletter Creation MailChimp or CRM Support Calendar and Meeting Management Document Creation Social Media Management Time Management Advice plus much more. Most of my clients have come from previous employers or by word of mouth. If you would like to learn more about working with me, please reach out and give me a call. If you need someone on your team who can work quickly and hit the ground running with minimal supervision then please reach out. No lock in contracts. https://www.elitepaonline.com.au/what-is-a-va

13.01.2022 When you talk about business values, trust always comes out top for me, always has. Ive always been a person with high integrity, trust matters to me, I cant operate my business without it. What matters to me is that I provide 100% support and attention to each and every one of my clients and ensure that the tasks get completed on time and within budget.... When choosing a VA to work alongside you in your business - a business that you yourself have created - you know that you need someone on your team that you can not only get along with, but also trust - along with experience, capability and proven performance. Its just the delegating that sometimes can be hard and I get that. https://www.elitepaonline.com.au/ https://www.linkedin.com//simon-sinek_theinfinitegame-tru/

11.01.2022 A Virtual Assistant (VA) is a person who provides support services to other businesses from a remote location. The term originated in the 1990s as the ability to work virtually, due to technology improvements like high-speed internet and document sharing, made working remotely a reality. Virtual assistants are especially in demand by entrepreneurs and online businesses that need help but don't want to bring on staff at their location. However, many small and mid-size busines...ses use virtual support, especially for specific tasks, such as social media management. Theoretically, a VA can do anything any other support staff does, except bring the coffee (although, when home-delivery coffee is created, the VA will be able to do that too). However, virtual support duties are not limited to clerical work. Many VAs provide marketing, web design and other services. Some virtual assistants specialize in a specific skill set. For example, a marketing or PR virtual assistant only does marketing or PR work. Other virtual assistants do a variety of duties within a specific industry.

11.01.2022 Whilst none of us knows for sure when or if Brexit will happen, we still need to be made aware of any potential changes to our businesses. Deal or no deal, it doesn't look like Brexit will impact my business, but it may affect yours, especially if you frequently travel to Europe or sell goods to EU countries. The UK government has provided a 7-question online tool (https://www.gov.uk/business-uk-leaving-eu) so businesses can see if they will be affected by Brexit:

03.01.2022 Enjoy your weekend!

03.01.2022 I don't know about you, but I find it pretty difficult to put myself out there, especially on social media Being an entrepreneur, I know how important it is to connect to your audience and for them to get to know you, but that doesn't make it any easier. Having been a PA for most of my career, I'm so used to working behind the scenes, always have been, but today I'm being brave and putting this photo out there, no make up, no filter, no staging ...- just me! Here I am in my happy place, my home It’s from here that I operate my Virtual Assistant business, in the beautiful region of Margaret River Having emigrated from the UK to Perth back in 2002 and having worked in both London & the Perth CBD for over 30 years for global execs, it was time for a change of lifestyle. Especially for my two young children. I'm a working mother, loving wife of a FIFO husband and an avid cook Being organised and simplifying your life is my game! I absolutely love what I do Sharing my extensive administrative knowledge with clients who just ask for simplicity in their systems and time back in their day. Simple! So here it is, my lockdown selfie and a little more info about me. No judgements here...! Guaranteed the next photo may be a little more polished (and smiley), but that’s ok, it’s all part of the journey See more
