VA MISSION STATEMENT
My ultimate goal as a Virtual Assistant is to provide both ad hoc tasks and ongoing admin & marketing
support to small businesses and consultants so they can focus on their core business. They outsource
their necessary but time-consuming tasks to me so they’re freed up to get on with other things – like
making money, enhancing customer service, getting referrals or bringing in new clients.
