Welcome

Do you feel as if you are stuck under a dark cloud of administration and paperwork? Need to set up a new CRM system and don't know where to start? Invoicing to do but just don't have the time? Yes….then Shining Star Virtual Assistant Services can help.   With a team of highly skilled assistants, we can provide administration and technical support for your business to help you shine, whilst saving you time. 

What is a VA?

A Virtual Assistant (VA) is a highly-skilled, independent professional who remotely provides administrative, technical and/or creative business support services.

If you need an administrative assistant but don’t…

  • Have the space to hire one in-house
  • Don’t want to pay fringe benefits for a full-time employee
  • Don’t have the office software/equipment needed to run your business
  • Or for whatever your reason…

Then a VA is the ideal solution.

Working remotely from my across Kent on a time schedule that suits your needs we can help give you back some much needed time to spend on those important business tasks to help you grow and nurture your business.

Interested in finding out how I can help free up your time and grow your business then get in touch today for a FREE no obligations consultation of your business needs.

Becky has been supporting me for a couple of months and has demonstrated not only great knowledge and expertise in the technical areas of my business, but also other qualities which have made her a joy to work with such as tenacity, diligence and precision. Becky has taken all the jobs, that I don’t enjoy doing, away from me and this allows me to spend more time being creative and working with my clients, instead of getting stuck in the mechanics of it all. Every entrepreneur should have support and I can recommend Becky wholeheartedly.
