You can see elsewhere on this site the many ways that I can work with you to help you with your processes, structure, skills and accountability, but sometimes the most efficient way to deal with a business situation is to outsource.
If you?re struggling with the age old ?too many things to do – too little time? problem then I can take on some of your load and simply do it for you.
This is how Virtual Bird began. I have quite literally years of experience of taking the headache-inducing tasks out of my clients? inboxes, working my magic and handing them back completed.
The chances are, if it?s a job you hate, it?s one I secretly – or not so secretly love. I?m a bit of a geek when it comes to detail, to organisation and structure. And if it?s all getting a bit much for you then I will most likely really enjoy getting in there, getting my hands dirty and sorting it all out for you.
So what kinds of things can I do?
The list is a long one, and honestly, will never be complete. The reason is that every client I work with has their own needs and each job is going to be slightly different.
