Helping businesses thrive by managing their daily administration and business operations, so they can focus on growth.

20/10/2026

Let's keep it simple. Here are the four things I do for business owners:

- Inbox & diary
- Invoicing & payments
- Systems & processes
- Admin & research

You'll see these four come up again and again on here, because that's the work.
I take the day-to-day off your plate, so you can grow your business.

If one of these four is eating your week, send me a message. I'd love to chat about how I can help you.

I recently started using Wispr Flow, a voice dictation app. I talk, it types, and it tidies up the ums and ahs as it goes. It works in email, messages and documents, so it fits into whatever you already use.

The app reckons it's saving me around 15 minutes a day. On working days alone, that adds up to roughly 60 hours a year. That's more than a full working week back, just from talking instead of typing.

It's best for the things you write most: email replies, quick updates and first drafts. Give everything a quick read before you hit send, but starting from a draft is far quicker than starting from a blank page.

Finding small time-savers like this is a big part of what I do for clients.

If you'd rather someone else looked at where your hours are going, send me a message. And follow along for a new fix every Friday this month.

Running a business on your own is a very particular experience.

A few things I think every solo business owner will recognise:

• Being the CEO, the finance team and the IT department before 9am.
• Celebrating a paid invoice like a lottery win.
• Saying I'll do the admin tonight and meaning it every single time.
• Answering emails from the car park.
• Having nobody to ask does this email sound OK?

If you're nodding along, you're in good company. And if you know someone who's every department of their business at once, tag them. They'll appreciate knowing they're not the only one.

And if you’re ready to stop doing all the jobs yourself, that’s exactly where I come in.

I support solo business owners with the admin, operations and behind‑the‑scenes tasks that keep everything moving, so you can focus on the work only you can do.

If your workload has started to feel heavier than it should, send me a message. I’d love to help lighten it.

The admin to sort before Christmas.....

There are about ten weeks until Christmas (yes sorry..!)

If you run a small business, that's ten weeks to get the admin in order before everyone disappears for the holidays. Here's the list I'd work through now, not in mid-December:

1. Chase every outstanding invoice. Payments slow right down once people switch off.
2. Decide your Christmas closure dates and tell your clients now.
3. Cancel the subscriptions you're no longer using.
4. Get your receipts and paperwork into one place.
5. Book an hour in the first week of January to plan the new year.

None of it is glamorous, but all of it is easier now than when you're tired and the diary is full of Christmas.

Or if you could do with a hand getting your admin in order before the Christmas madness, send me a message. I'd love to chat about how I could help.

New Friday series alert! One small admin fix each week that takes under ten minutes to set up.

This week: the three-folder inbox.

* Action: things you need to do
* Waiting: things you're waiting on someone else for
* Reference: things to keep but not act on

Everything else gets archived.

Sort new emails into a folder as soon as you read them, and your inbox stops being a pile.

Rather hand it over? That's what I do for clients, so send me a message, andnd follow the page so you don't miss next Friday's.

A - Inbox and emails
B - Invoicing and chasing payments
C - Diary and scheduling
D - Something else (tell me!)

3 - I'm studying for my AAT bookkeeping qualification right now
4 - I have a hearing impairment and wear hearing aids.
5 - I'm a mum of two, and flexibility is the reason this business exists

Now tell me one thing about you in the comments 👇

Thinking about getting some support but not sure what it's actually like day to day? Here's what every client can expect when working with me.

Communication on your terms. Email, WhatsApp, whatever suits you, I fit around how you already work, not the other way round.

A weekly written update. You'll know exactly what's been done, what's outstanding, and what's coming up, without ever having to chase me for it.

Things get flagged early. If something needs your attention, you'll hear about it while there's still time to act, not once its become a problem.

And whatever the day throws up, you'll get the same calm, steady response. Clients often tell me that's the thing they didn't know they needed until they had it.

If that sounds like the kind of support you're after, I have room for a couple more clients this October.

Send me a message if you'd like to chat, I'd love to see where I can help.

"What actually happens if I get in touch?" Fair question! Here's how it works:

- You message me and tell me what's piling up
- We have a relaxed discovery call, a chance for us both to check we're a good fit
- I send you a clear proposal
- If you're happy, we get the forms sorted and have an onboarding meeting where I learn how your business runs

Then you get a weekly update from me, so you always know what's been done.

You don't need to hand over everything. Lots of people start with just one task.

Curious? Why not book a free discovery call. Send me a message to get booked in

The nicest thing a client can say to me? Something like this:

"I don't worry about what piles up while I'm away. I know it'll get handled."

That's exactly what I'm here for: taking the day-to-day off your plate so you can properly switch off when you need to.

I'm a one-person business, so I only take on a small number of clients at a time, and I have room for a couple more right now.

If you'd like some of that breathing space, come and have a chat. Send me a message, I'd love to see how I can support you.
