TESTIMONIALS
Take a look at my testimonials to find out what people say about me...
Alison has been a pleasure to work with and one of those people in life that always has a cheery smile – even though most of the time we worked remotely by phone or email. Never once would I have known if she’d had a bad day herself, such is the joy of her demeanour.
Nothing was ever too much trouble for Alison to take on and she seemed to thrive on the extensive variety of the work I gave her. Never afraid to turn her hand to any task, she also willing took on the training and learning of new systems, whether internal or external without hesitation and gave comprehensive handovers to her co-VA at the end of each week’s ‘shift’.
I truly wish Alison the very best for the future and would recommend her to anyone seeking the ever more rare qualities of polite manners, positive energy, hard-work and diligence.
Alison took on a task I hate and I was very pleased to easily out source. I gave her a written brief to request some specific quotes for services.
Alison used her own initiative and brilliance to collect market information, including from abroad, to give me exactly what I needed with no further input from me. I could then focus on other activities in my business I am more specialised in as food safety expert.
Alison is impressively efficient, polite and professional and I would recommend her highly for a multitude of tasks. She has entrepreneurial qualities herself and a positive attitude to finding solutions promptly
