Hi Kathie,
Managing Director
Squeaky Clean
—————————————-
“A Clayton’s Secretary”
“Congratulations on your nomination for Australian of the Year 2009, it is very well deserved. You are very hardworking and give a lot of your time to enhancing and promoting the VA Industry, something I am sure all VAs are very grateful for, I know I am. Becoming a Virtual Assistant has given me the ability to work from home and spend quality time with my young family while still having my own business which I’m really looking forward to expanding. I’ve got everything crossed for you and send my best wishes.”

“Kathie has been assisting me in her capacity as a Virtual Assistant now for several months, with my websites and blogs, social media and general research for programs and items that would help me in my business.
I have found her to be efficient and reliable and she keeps in touch with me, letting me know the progress of the work she is doing for me. Something that is very important to me rather than being left ‘in the cold’ as I have been in the past (with others). What is more, Kathie is a great centre of influence and has other contacts who have been able to assist me with various items so she has become a very valuable and useful resource to my business.
I highly recommend Kathie and her team for VA support.”
Shannon Panzo, Zoxpro, Victoria, Australia has been using Kathie’s services since 2011.

Kathie has been my virtual assistant for many years. She is very competent, trustworthy and reliable. I first started using Kathie to manage my database over 10 years ago but as I became aware of her capabilities that increased so that she now handles around 98% of my admin support – almost all of it virtually! She now not only maintains both my computer and online databases, but the registrations and name tags for my workshops, my website, ezines, broadcast emails, product sales, shopping cart, PowerPoint presentations and so on. She is an integral part of my business.

“I have known Kathie for over 8 years now, not only as a fellow VA but on various committee and groups and now as valued friend and colleague. Her experience and knowledge on the VA business is extraordinary but it also extends out into the general business stream. You want to know about it, Kathie will tell you about it and help you achieve it.”

“I have been a member of A Clayton’s Secretary for several years now and I have always found Kathie to be a dedicated and very knowledgeable person who is a leader in her field. I am always amazed at the many endeavours Kathie undertakes yet still finds time to be a Virtual Mentor as well as a great support to me and the other team members. Kathie is a great moderator of our online group and I have also come to consider her a “virtual friend”. Among her passions are writing, public speaking, blogging and Kathie is also now a VA Coach. Should you at any time require any of the services Kathie provides you won’t be disappointed!”

I met Kathie on the internet, when I started to introduce WinWeb to the VA community. It was great to meet someone who is as passioned about VAs as I about small business. She is a guest-author on my blog (www.sme-blog.com) and her input is highly valued – thank you for that.

“I needed Kathie’s assistance and advice setting up a blog site. Kathie spent the better part of an hour explaining the pro’s and con’s and put me onto a number of people that could also guide me.
Thanks Kathie for your assistance.”

“My observations about Kathie relate to a series of breakfast meetings which she organises to bring business people together at Bayside Church. Kathie is highly organised, but combines with this a wonderful capacity to “come alongside” the people she works with. If you are seeking a truly collaborative business relationship, Kathie is the person you are after. She makes you look good.”
