Testimonials

In our business, how we interact with our clients is so important. The experience that they have from the very first interaction must be special; otherwise why would they come to us again. Shirley is at the forefront of this for us. Her professionalism is exemplary and I have so much confidence in her ability to represent me and our business in a way that is consistent with our purpose and values. Her attention to detail is superb and she provides a level of support for me that, quite frankly, I would be lost without. I can’t recommend Shirley highly enough.

Shirley is amazing! She is one of the most organised and efficient people I have ever worked with! Exceptionally proactive in her approach and extremely personal in her manner, Shirley takes everything in her stride to get the job done. My Clients love Shirley for the way she interacts with them which makes my job of doing what is vital for me, so much easier. For the past 15 years I have know Shirley, she has always been consistent in her effectiveness, positive attitude and goal orientated focus. I recommend Shirley without reservation to anyone I know.

Shirley provides an EA role to our business. Shirley brings a high level of competence and a safe set of hands from deep experience over 30 years as EA at the top end of business in Australia. The benchmark Shirley has for her service reflects the same benchmark we have for our business. We are fortunate to have Shirley as our EA and part of our team.

Running a start up is like running a marathon backwards: obstacles and challenging pop up and you have to be flexible and pivot constantly to stay ahead of the pack. You need a PA who works well within this climate and who is challenged by it; You need a Shirley Harris.

Shirley has been my mentor for the last 11 months. Upon meeting Shirley I was thrilled to have been matched with her and we got on incredibly well from the first meeting. Shirley has a wealth of knowledge and experience that she is willing to share. She has been a wonderful support to me during a rocky year with many highs and lows. I couldn’t have done it without her sound advice and empathetic personality. I look forward to all our future meetings.

I have used the virtual assistant services of BusinessAssistant for many years, particularly in assisting me with promotional flyers, product updates and newsletters. During that time, I have found Shirley to be a great partner. She uses her initiative, is creative, doesn’t hesitate to make suggestions and has a great eye for detail and never misses a deadline. Despite the fact that I am located in South Africa and Shirley is in Australia, we have a close working partnership and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to anyone seeking the services of a professional virtual assistant.
