Virtual Secretary/PA and a bit of a "Jack of All T...

Dear Reader, I run a small virtual assistant business in Surrey, with the most fantastic clients, who are responsible for keeping my day exciting and different. Coupled with the variety of tasks I can perform, I am supported by my wealth of experience which come from various industries, to name but a few: Events Management, Training, Education, PR, Hotel and Catering, IT, Banking, Sales, Marketing, Medical (cosmetic surgery) Environmental and Professional Music. On a personal note, but one that has filtered into my professional, my love of films, theatre, reading and writing has extended my experience to script writing, manuscripts and proofreading plus using FirstDraft and all its "querbles"! What I think you would like to know is that I am versatile in my approach, flexible and willing to learn a new trade at the drop of a hat. I am a very happy "Jack of all Trades" with the ability to be Master, but quite likes the variety of being the former. I believe that nothing is ever set in stone, that you CAN and most certainly "teach a [old] dog new tricks" and flexibility allows you to be more adventurous. I handle several tasks at once, and prefer it that way...no job is too small and nothing is too much trouble. I believe strongly that virtual assistance is one of the most hardest concepts to sell because most of us like to deal with a 'live' person, but I also believe it is one of the most long term cost effective ways to support a sole trader/small business. I can argue all day why it is better to pay me at £15 per hour than it is a temp at £8 per hour, but I think it depends on your concept and whether you like consistency. I will leave you with a couple of testimonies below that you might like to read, but in the meantime, thank you for taking the time to read my profile. TESTIMONIALS “Sam is a very competent and able business partner who is always incredibly enthusiastic and looks for ways to improve the way you work, saving you time and money. She takes the time to understand your business and is flexible in her approach.” October 18, ...2011 Top qualities: Great Results, Personable, Expert - Andrew S, Smithbrook ---- “Samantha was by far the best personal assistant... that I have encountered in any major business. She is bright, intelligent and able to manage complex situations and office environments. Her input at IMI was well beyond her paygrade and had the company survived she would have undoubtedly progressed into a management role within the IT division. If the opportunity arose I would have no hesitation at all about hiring Samantha myself or recomending her to others as she would grow to become a key member of any organisation that she becomes involved with.” October 20, 2011 Shaun M - Managing Director, Croxley Morris & Co

Sasha maintains having a select number of clients, to enable providing a 1:1 service and getting to know her clients properly, working independently and on occasion, when necessary, with other qualified PA's and admin staff. "Having worked for many professionals and high-profile individuals with heavy workloads, tight deadlines, hectic lives and little free time, I truly understand the value of good support and enabling business leaders to spend their time on tasks that bring them the most value and income.

I am a London-based Freelance Political Writer and Analyst, I hold a Masters in International Law (LLM) from the University of Nottingham, specialising in Jurisprudence, International Human Rights, International Trade, International Development, International Environmental and Public International Law. I also hold BA (Hons) 2:1 in Politics from the University of Greenwich. I have excellent written and verbal communications skills, and a deep understanding of many of the issues we face today. Having worked for a leading human rights charity and a Freelance Select Committee Reporter for leading Political Intelligence Agencies, I’ve gained experience developing research and writing reports. I can gather and analyze information and translate complex and technical information into clear formats. I’m highly committed to International Humanitarian work, working with many groups and organizations’ that truly care about the world and its future. After my degree I was appointed to a work placement at the Fabian Society think tank. I worked on the Commission for Life Chances and Child Poverty called 'Life Chances: ...what do the public really think about poverty?' I also gained an internship as a research assistant to the former... Secretary of State for International Development the RT Hon Hilary Benn MP. During this time I worked with Cabinet Ministers and met with the Prime Minister while I researched on various political issues. I shadowed the Secretary of State at the Department for International Development, for when oral question responses were being prepared for the House of Commons, during confidential meetings and in media interviews. Being involved with the Parliamentary process gave me a direct experience of the workings of politics. The current political system was created before the internet, before cell phones, before global travel and before the exponential levels of information sharing across borders and cultures; this has led to a growing movement based on ethical, environmental, sustainability, which increasingly becoming a mainstream phenomenon. Now more than ever we need to breathe fresh air into political thinking, we need people with a clear vision and intelligence, people who are willing to work with compassion, wisdom and a spirit of determination. I personally believe there is always a wise solution to a problem, solutions that go beyond conventional thinking. Real and effective thinking can happen when we see that the individual and society are one; because without each one of us the society does not exist. The outer and the inner cannot be separated; they are constantly affecting each other. This is an intelligent process, a process in which the solutions can be found in the heart of the problems. It is by bringing clarity into complexity, wisdom into intelligence that we can find new solutions to a set of problems converging together that can no-longer be fixed by conventional thinking. The freelance and consultancy work I can provide includes: Research | Original research and analysis relating to politics and international affairs Writing | Reports and articles written to a very high standard for a variety of readerships and publications Presentations | Lectures and briefings on a range of issues and for various audiences Media | Interviews (radio, television and print), press releases and media campaigns Facilitation | Planning, speaking, consultations and conferences

Thank you! Larry P. Morton, Ph.D. Links to work examples: www.morton-morton.com/bp.html The difference between business plan writers is the style. Investors are just people, like you and I, they look for value in the business plan which is revealed in the style of the plan with the research, easy to read narrative, color scheme, marketing approach, graphics, tables that are relevant, and a plan that is written in such a way that the reader cannot put it down until they have come to the end. If the investor sees that you have sent him a template then he discounts you, the business concept and his attitude toward the business concept. Most templates go into the trash. If you do not put value into your plan then why should an investor put value into your business?
