What is a Virtual Business Manager?
A Virtual Business Manager (VBM) goes beyond the role of a typical assistant by offering comprehensive support tailored to your unique business needs. If you find yourself needing a professional who can handle your business operations, allowing you to focus on what truly matters to you, a VBM might be the solution you're looking for.
We aim to provide you with the time and space to concentrate on your priorities, such as building relationships, following your vision, and achieving your goals.
As your VBM, our role encompasses managing your team, overseeing operations, coordinating projects, tracking metrics, and aligning all these elements with your core values and purpose. In essence, we're here to streamline your processes, ensuring you can dedicate your energy to the aspects of your business that you excel at and enjoy most.

How is a virtual business manager different from a virtual assistant?
A Virtual Assistant is an excellent resource for tackling tasks on your to-do list and helping with day-to-day administrative tasks.
On the other hand, a Virtual Business Manager (VBM) brings a more strategic and holistic approach to your business.
As your VBM, our responsibilities include:
​
-
Directing your focus towards what's most important in your business.
-
Creating more time for you to seize new opportunities.
-
Boosting both profitability and productivity in your business.
-
Streamlining your business operations for increased efficiency.
-
Proactively managing day-to-day operations to ensure smooth functioning.
-
Giving you peace of mind by reducing your workload.
Essentially, a VBM aims to free up your time and mental space, thereby enhancing your business's overall performance and growth.

How do we work together? Is it online, or can you come to my office?
We work from our home office, serving clients around New Zealand and overseas.
If you are local, we love meeting my clients now and then for a coffee. If you prefer that we work on-site, we could make that happen, but there would be an extra cost for travel time and expenses.

How do you know when to hire a Virtual Business Manager?
It’s a great time to consider hiring a VBM if you’re:
-
Feeling overwhelmed and lacking time.
-
Being reactive in your business rather than proactive.
-
Want to scale without any speed wobbles
-
Annoyed that your systems and processes are all over the place
-
Caught up IN your business and frustrated because you want to work ON it
-
You need a vested partner by your side who keeps you focused, accountable and motivated
-
You want to recover your peace of mind back
Then, you might want to consider partnering with me. ​

How do you ensure the confidentiality of my business information when we’re working together?
We take confidentiality seriously and offer to sign a non-disclosure agreement in addition to the terms of service. We also use LastPass to protect passwords and sensitive information, making password sharing confidential and easy for clients to share their logins while keeping access to corporate data safe.​​​
