services
As a Small Business Assistant my services are bespoke, my missions encompass some of the areas I have worked on for other clients, but the below is by no means exhaustive:
Improving Operations - analysing procedures to identify ways in which to save time and money, including margin calculations to ensure the maximum is achieved
Reducing Costs - through procurement research, negotiation with various suppliers (energy/rates/office services etc), and streamlining procedures
Finding Simple Solutions - this is inherent throughout, for example in establishing filing systems which don't duplicate efforts
Ongoing Support - myflexibility and ability to take on small projects means that clients can seek support on an ad-hoc and ongoing basis as their business changes
Sustainable Organisation - arguably the key to less stress for any small business owner, with streamlined procedures; IT that works for you; a simple filing system; and as much automation as can be - it is achievable.
pricing
Free initial discussion
Hourly estimate provided, which you are under no obligation to accept
No hidden charges or graduated rates
A simple hourly rate of £15/hour helps people keep track of their spend
For more extensive projects I would negotiate a day rate where preferable
A much more flexible alternative to employing more staff
A much more accessible alternative to the large consultancies
