"I first contacted Virtual Miss Friday for some support with article rewriting early in June 2012. I had decided to rebrand my business and had already made arrangements for creating the new website and in my mind there was just a small “box” that I could fit them in. Little did I realise ... once I saw the quality of the work that Dale (Content and SEO Manager) and his team produced for me, I asked if they could offer more general support for growing my new online business. Dale said that Michelle could advise on social media generally, and so I spoke to her ... and now they have completely recast my website, set me up on Twitter and Facebook, transformed the way I use LinkedIn and generally become a completely indispensable part of my business development strategy.
I’m one of those people who’s always been a bit worried about becoming over-dependent on anyone. But in the case of VMF I’m now – less than four months later – well beyond that stage. I know I need them and don’t mind saying that, because I just trust them completely. Their standard-setting, their engagement, their encouragement, their all round commitment to helping me believe that my business can achieve what I want from it just couldn’t be better. They never cut any corners and never display irritation (at least not to me!) with the fact that lots of my questions about social media are driven by the fact that I’m a novice trying to learn quickly. And their fees are very reasonable too.
So I’m quite happy to put my hand up and say I’m a self-confessed VMF junkie. What helps me sleep at night is that because Michelle, Dale, Marianne and the team are all virtual, I don’t have to worry about what I’d do if they left the country. Some of them already have! And even though Dale and Michelle are now based in Crete, they’re closer than ever."
