One of the best things to help boost your business is easy and cheap - testimonials!
 The'14 days of love'campaign being run at the moment byThe Best of Hitchinhas had me thinking a lot about testimonials. A few clients have commented in the last year that they had read through my testimonials on mywebsite, or on myBest of Hitchin page, before they contacted me. It's an important part of marketing your business.
If you get an positive email of thanks from a client, or a more formal testimonial then shout about it from the roof-tops! |

If you’re wondering if you’re the type of business who could benefit from a Virtual Assistant, on a one-off or on-going basis, then wonder no more! Since I started Actual Admin I’ve had such an array of business types turn to me for assistance. I’ve had a tree surgeon, a business turnaround specialist, a training company, a commercial cleaner, an advertising company, a pre-school, a gymnastics coach, a children’s hairdressers and many more. Some of these businesses have wanted on-going assistance, some have wanted help on a one-off basis. |

 This second year has been amazing, work has increased steadily. Clients have booked me for more and more work, and work I have obtained from word of mouth has increased.
I thank all those who have asked me to do work for them, and who have written me some brilliant testimonials. My results in TheBestOf's Most Loved Businesses just astounded me: 16th most loved business in Hitchin, and 4th in the UK for Secretarial and Virtual PA Services. I thank those who helped me get there.
Here's to the next successful year for Actual Admin!! |

You've set up your own business, recognised your dream, and business is going well. However your stress levels are through the roof and you seem to have less free time now than when you were an employee. Work days are spent juggling the real work of your business, and the paperwork etc. To make up time you work into the evening and at weekends. Surely time you should be spending with family and/or friends? So what are your choices? Hire a full-time member of staff? |

Hello everyone! It seemed a bit wrong for a Virtual PA not to have a blog, in this age of Facebook, Twitter, Blogs etc! So here it is! I'll share some insights into what a VPA does, shouldn't do, and anything else along the way! |
