I couldn't be happier
Marion created a website for my salon 7 years ago in 2014, the website served its purpose well, but was in need of a revamp.
I couldn't be happier with the website's new look. Once again Marion came up with amazing results and she executed imagery and text beautifully. From start to finish nothing was too difficult for Marion to tackle, and she completed the site in a very efficient manner. The revamped site has clients talking already! I would highly recommend working with My Virtual Assistant – Marion will definitely exceed your expectations. Thanks Marion, I am so happy with the results, the site looks stunning!

Exactly what we needed
We contacted Marion shortly after launching our business as we needed our current website updated and revamped.
Marion was so easy to deal with (and all by email!) Nothing was too much trouble and the end result is a website that is inviting, easy to navigate, fresh and new. Thanks again, Marion, we are very happy with the Barkers Plumbing website and thoroughly recommend you to others. Mike Barker Barkers Plumbing Ltd www.barkersplumbing.co.nz |

The results are fabulous
The website we inherited was a bit dismal and the thought of the work required to revamp it was quite daunting.
But the journey was so much easier with your help and the results are fabulous. We now have a website that is bright and inviting, with a warmth and friendliness that reflects our business goals so well. We will definitely use your services again and will happily recommend you to others. A job well done! Thank you so much, Marion. Pam Joll Facility Manager Lexham Gardens Limited www.lexham.co.nz |

Fast responses and took all the 'scary stuff' awayI'm absolutely thrilled with my fabulous new website that Marion has created for me! She designed the whole thing! Re-worded the text, displayed my artwork beautifully, made suggestions and set up the ecommerce side. My new website is an artwork in itself!
Marion was extremely fast in her responses when I had any questions and she took all the 'scary stuff' out of creating my website, as well as dealing directly with the domain name people and the hosting company. She even setup Mailchimp for me so that I can now grow a database of customers! She was so professional and I can't recommend her highly enough for doing a fabulous job and taking the worry out of my hands! Thank you Marion! Heléne Henare Artist www.helenehenare.co.nz |

We are over the moon
We have always wanted to get a website up and running, but we did not know where to start or who to go to. Then a friend got us in contact with Marion.
Working with Marion was very easy and as we are so busy with everything, we gave her very little help. She worked in with us and was very patient. As for the website we couldn't have asked for more - we are over the moon with it! The feedback from family and friends has been amazing – “so professional”. We absolutely love our new website and it backs up the level of workmanship that we strive for. We are also going to work with Marion, not just for our website, but also advertising media, as well as our new e-commerce shop. Thank you so much. Jason and Nina Racecar and Custom Electrical |

Much easier than I expected
Before getting my website built I spent almost a year trying to figure out what I wanted to advertise and what I wanted to say to make my customers understand we could help with anything they needed.
Once My Virtual Assistant got involved the process was much easier than I expected. My website was built quickly and changes were easy to make, if needed. Very pleased with the end result. Phillip Smith Director Oakhill Carpentry www.oakhillcarpentry.co.nz |

Nothing was too much trouble
I had been considering upgrading my website for a number of months and after reading Marion’s email newsletters and liking the nice newsy style of her writing I decided to use her services. I am so pleased I did.
Marion seemed to know what I wanted before I knew what I wanted and created a fresh look to my site and nothing was too much trouble for her to do. Thank you Marion. Susanne Rossiter Celebrant Ceremonies With Susanne www.ceremonieswithsusanne.co.nz |

I love my website and so do my clients
Dear Marion
I wanted to have on online presence for my business and was very confused as to where to start. After having my initial meeting with you I felt the weight off my shoulders as you answered all of my questions. We discussed colour schemes, branding and picture choices which I left up to you. I wanted a professional website that reflected my services. I could not be happier with the result. You delivered exactly what you promised, I would not change anything. I love my website and so do my clients. Thank you once again, I will be passing your details to others in my network.

Our website was re-created at a cost that was incredibly reasonable
In early 2019 we approached Marion Jackson from My Virtual Assistant with the view to upgrading our website and rebuilding it on a more user-friendly platform.
We had looked through websites that Marion has created for similar type of organisations, and were impressed with the design and functionality of the sites we viewed. After contacting Marion, we met in person to discuss our needs and whether Marion could deliver our upgrade at reasonable cost. Consequently, we commissioned My Virtual Assistant to proceed. Our website was re-created within a very short period; onto a platform that is easy to edit, and at a cost that was incredibly reasonable. I am very pleased to be able to highly recommend both Marion Jackson and My Virtual Assistant to anyone wishing to create or upgrade their website. Our experience has been entirely positive. We can also contact Marion if we need to solve any issues with posting or editing. Best regards, Fred Alder Trustee Southern Stars Charitable Trust www.southernstars.org.nz |

Simplistic and functional - just what I had wanted to achieve
Marion and My Virtual Assistant were referred to me by a family member who had engaged her to build their website.
Upon detailing what I wanted to achieve for my new start up, Marion delivered an end result that was both simplistic and functional – just what I had wanted to achieve. Even better, it flows perfectly with mobile devices; an area where most of my business is generated from. I would be happy to recommend her fantastic service to anyone looking for an upgrade or new website – Thanks Marion! Jason Koenen Phoenix Environmental Solutions www.phoenixenvironmental.co.nz |

Marion has done a fabulous job of completely redesigning and modernising my tired boring old web site. It looks great, modern and fresh, with moving parts! I am so pleased with it.

MyVA newsletter feedback (and a LinkedIn video tip!)
Hi Marion,
Congratulations on your 10 year anniversary! That is a huge achievement. Yay for you and much respect. A few thoughts… and a wee business birthday gift of advice... I get your newsletter – thank you – as you are very good at regularly sending it out to your list and I can see that you put great work into your EDM’s and that you are very genuine and good at what you do. I have respect for that, too. Today, I was enticed to watch your video draw – and I would like to praise you and give you a wee gift of my advice. You are wonderful on video. Do more. So likeable, fun and made for video content - I learned more about who you are (got a sense of you as a person and you are super likeable) in a few seconds on video than I felt I had gained through your regular EDM’s. I took greater notice of you. How cool is that! Now for my advice. I am a LinkedIn specialist (as you may have seen) and LinkedIn native video is LOVED by the algorithm on LinkedIn. I advise you to stop saving your video to You Tube for LinkedIn use and instead upload it directly to the LinkedIn platform. This will garner you many more views. And rinse and repeat. I’d love to see more video from you on LinkedIn. Enjoy your celebrations. Warmest regards, Kate Nankivell LinkedIn Specialist and Business Development Expert Force of Nature www.forceofnature.co.nz |

You have saved me so much time
Hi Marion
Wonderful - this is perfect! You have saved me so much time on this task which I wasn't looking forward to sorting out. It is wonderful to be able to call on your services when I need assistance with various administration tasks so I can carry on running my business knowing that you will do a great job. It's great to have this service for businesses like mine which cannot justify a full time assistant, but is available when I need help from time to time. Thanks again for your hard work. Kind Regards Gina McKenzie Director Real Communications Merivale, Christchurch |

Marked increase in traffic
Our new website was put together by My Virtual Assistant. We found Marion to be ultimately efficient, processing the information we supplied within 24 hours or less.
Once our website went live we had a marked increase in traffic and ‘cold’ enquiries, plus several compliments on the layout, visual impression, and ease of use of the site. Leigh Davy Managing Director Acryform Plastics Design & Fabrication Beach Haven, Auckland www.acryform.co.nz |

Fresh ideas and professionalism
Marion was very approachable and accommodated my wish list for a website very well.
I wanted a modern, easy on the eye, user friendly website. Marion's fresh ideas and professionalism gave me full confidence that she would get the job done without issues. The result was a vast improvement from my previously outdated website, and after the website went 'live', I was impressed with how easy changes could be made on my end. Thanks Marion for a job well done. Dr Ray Khoo Howick Health & Medical Centre |

Love, love, love my website and so do my clients
If you are looking at getting a website that will truly generate business, then Marion is your contact.
I left all the design/colour/picture choices up to Marion, (and ended up not changing a thing!) I just fed her the information and poof, just like that, my awesome website was born! Love, love, love my website and so do my clients. No more printing brochures, no more spending hours selling myself and my services, my website does that all and more. Thank you Marion for you patience and diligence in creating me a master site. Kind Regards Bernadette Moir Dawn 2 Dusk Bucklands Beach, Auckland |

Marion's expertise was invaluable
Online presence was an area of our business that we knew we needed to work on but didn’t know where to start.
Marion guided us in the right direction to get us started (with our website) and then efficiently managed the process for us. She was very quick with any changes we requested and was creative in her suggestions for promotional ideas. A great asset to our team and would highly recommend Marion; her expertise in this area was invaluable. Sharine Burns, Licensed Real Estate Salesperson Professionals Howick www.whysharine.com |

Marion seemed to know exactly what we wanted
Dear Marion Barbara and I would just like to thank you for the amazing job you have done on our website. After months of dealing with another company, we had been left feeling very frustrated and felt we would have been better off doing it ourselves. After speaking to you, you decided to come into the salon to get a feel for our environment. You then whizzed up this great site for us; you seemed to know exactly what we wanted and captured us perfectly! We have had great feedback from our clients who have found the site easy to navigate and informative. Once again thank you so much for making this so stress free for us, we will definitely be recommending you to others in the future.

Marion was on my wavelength
My existing website really wasn't cutting the mustard, and I needed a site that showcased who I am and what I do.
After talking to a few website designers, I came back to Marion at My Virtual Assistant because I liked the look of a lot of the websites she had already created, and after discussing ideas with her, I felt she was on my wavelength. When Marion sent through the initial draft for my website, I was very happy with it. There was nothing about it that I wanted to change. I am more than happy to personally recommend My Virtual Assistant to anyone thinking about getting a new website for their business. Jesse Wilde Singer/Songwriter Auckland |

A huge weight off my shoulders
Marion did an AMAZING job on my website!
I started up my business last year in June 2015 and had no idea what to do about setting up a website. I was referred to Marion by a friend, and also the East Auckland Grapevine page on Facebook. Once I had my first meeting with Marion it was a huge weight off my shoulders; she was professional, friendly and fun to deal with. She put me at ease and went about 'getting it done'. I am so pleased with the end result and it has been just super-easy for me. If you or anyone you know needs a website set up don’t think twice, just leave it in Marion from My Virtual Assistant's capable hands and relax as all will be done, and to a very high standard.

The project was completed with ease
Hello Marion,
Just a note to thank you for your support with the development of our website. Our team had researched a number of vendors and we were so pleased we engaged your services. From our first meeting to twigging the final detail, the experience was a good one and the processes you have in place ensured the project was completed with ease. The goal was to provide our clients with a simple introduction to NZPGS, our products, services and people; this was achieved. Having completed the site in a timely manner ensured we were prepared to enter the market seamlessly and cost effectively. I will be passing on your details to others in my network looking for a website solution. Best Regards, John Chapman Director New Zealand Pump & Generators Stratford, Taranaki www.nzpgs.co.nz |

She is also a good listener and tries hard to think like my clients. I like the personal approach Marion has. Nothing ever seems to be a problem and she is so patient.

Professionalism, excellent communication and high quality end product
After many years working with a web designer who never replied to our messages or actioned our requests adequately, we were thrilled to have found and worked with Marion from My Virtual Assistant. From the moment I first messaged Marion she immediately replied, letting me know when we could talk and schedule in time to develop our new website. Her communication has been exemplary throughout the process and her after service follow-up and small amendments we request are updated very promptly. Marion has ensured the back end of our website is all correctly linked which has significantly increased our web visitor rate and level of enquiry. I recommend her to any organisation that is looking for professionalism, excellent communication and delivery of high quality end product and welcome you to contact me should you wish to ask any questions about the level of service she provides.

Our website is over and above my wildest expectations
I have recently had the pleasure of working with Marion Jackson, from My Virtual Assistant, over the past few weeks. My Virtual Assistant was recommended to me on Facebook's Howick Grapevine Page.
I visited Marion's webpage that evening and was thrilled to receive an instant reply. The wheels were in motion and from the idea's, suggestions and guidance that came from My Virtual Assistant that night, I knew I had found a master of her trade. Marion engineered, designed and pieced together the most outstanding and incredible Company Logo and Website, for our new business. Her work ethics, professionalism and her wealth of knowledge is faultless. Being afraid of looking at a computer, let alone touching one, Marion has guided me, effortlessly, every step of the way. Her valuable skills and industry know how, have been my company's biggest asset to date. Our website is over and above my wildest expectations. My business has started with a bang and I can not thank Marion enough for all her hard work, time, effort and energy. We are so proud of our website - it's spectacular! Marion @ My Virtual Assistant is the best in the business. Her professionalism, prices and service is absolutely above and beyond brilliant. Perfect websites and unbelieveable prices! Good luck for the future Marion. I'm forever grateful to you and your company. Kindest regards, Deborah Hemmingson Director Funky Cool Klobber |

Very cost effective
Marion's prompt, professional and creative service delivered exactly the results I was looking for.
I had a concept for a logo, in my mind's eye, that I communicated to Marion and she was able to run with the idea and deliver a range of options. Changes were made promptly and we quickly had a result that represents exactly what I was looking for. Her work was also very cost effective which is a huge bonus in a field where even the simplest projects can be expensive. I look forward to using My Virtual Assistant again. Thanks.

Marion is such an amazing onto-it person
I had been looking around for someone to fix up my website and add a shopping trolley, which my site did not have.
Every website designer I rang said, yes we can do it, but you will have to do a new website and get rid of the one that you have now. This will cost you around $3000 to $5000, plus a monthly fee to keep the website updated. I was approached by a web design and SEO company their cost was up to $5000. I did not get sucked into their offers, I am not stupid, and if I was dumb I would have signed up and now been in debt of $5000. I kept on persevering, asking around and finally I was at the Mt Eden Market selling my skincare and I met a lady that told me about My Virtual Assistant, run by a lady called Marion Jackson who specialises in template websites and more. Well I was so thrilled I rang Marion straight away. Marion is such an amazing onto-it person; she explained to me what she needed; I sent the information photos, product prices and all the stuff that Marion needed to revamp my website. The very next day Marion had done all of these things, keeping me informed of what changes were made. Every single bit of information that I sent to Marion was done straight away, there was no mucking around. When I viewed my website to check prices, etc, to my amazement my website was so brilliant! What Marion had done to it was just amazing. By the way it only took two and a half weeks for Marion to complete everything and the cost was under $1,500! I am a very happy customer. If it had not been for My Virtual Assistant I don’t know what I would have done. I highly recommend Marion Jackson to all of you people out there that are having problems with their websites. Marion Jackson you’re the best! Diane Callanan Diane's Organic Skincare www.dianesorganicskincare.co.nz |

Took the stress away from me
If you are looking for a professional website tailored to your company's specifics then look no further than My Virtual Assistant. Marion Jackson is not only professional, she's reliable, honest and fun to work with.
She took the stress away from me, so I could stick with the fun bits - making jewellery! While Marion was creative with my website, I could be creative within my workshop - 'making my workshop dreams become a website reality!'

Takes such great pride in her work, as if it was her own website
I have toiled away with my websites for years and as a boat designer and builder I wanted to be able to update with regular news and advances. The hope was that if it was easy enough, I could do it myself to get the information I wanted across. What I found was that it was so cumbersome to make changes that I ended up shying away from doing it all. You almost needed a tech degree to sort it out!
I met with Marion and discussed my website, and agreed she would take control of it. The results have been outstanding. Firstly she provided a platform that is very simple and user friendly, so I can make changes if I wish. But through the process Marion takes such great pride in her work, as if it was her own website, and presents the information in a very professional and clear way, that I have now just left it to her. Her experience and ability to write in a clear and context sensitive way has enhanced my website hugely and is a very big improvement on what I had. She is very easy to work with and speaks in language you can understand, so it gives you the ability to stay connected and be part of the process as the site is being developed. You are able to understand and follow her through the process, which allows you to be involved as much or as little as you like. I highly recommend My Virtual Assistant to anyone thinking of setting up a website. No matter how big your company is, Marion will develop you a professional easy to use website, tailored to your business, that you can be proud of and will enhance your business.

Highest possible standard
Marion has been a pleasure to work with. I found Marion via asking for recommendations on the East Auckland Grapevine (on Facebook), and everyone that answered recommended her.
We had an old website which needed upgrading and she has certainly given it a new lease of life. We are delighted with it. She came up with some great ideas and was able to turn our old website into something that looks amazing and easy to get around. Marion is very easy to work with, punctual with replies and answers to questions, and does everything to the highest possible standard. I would highly recommend her to anyone. Elaine Heenan Managing Director/Owner Coral Palms Exclusive Beachfront Resort, Fiji www.coralpalmsfiji.com |

Fabulous results
We were referred to Marion at My Virtual Assistant to design various Power Point presentations for a Trade Show.
With very little notice Marion worked swiftly to put these together for us with fabulous results. We would highly recommend Marion and will definitely work with her again. Peter Shepherd Director Topcoat Specialist Coatings Limited East Tamaki, Auckland www.topcoat.co.nz |

The right person to help meI found Marion from My Virtual Assistant, on a Facebook page. After reading about her work, I felt that she would be the right person to help me, and I was right.
Marion has been thoughtful and intuitive at bringing together my discordant ideas into a cohesive and well thought out website, easy to understand and read, which I am very satisfied with. She also provided an interesting logo, which she incorporated onto my new business card. Thank you, Marion, for guiding me. I recommend you to all, and especially to those not totally familiar with techonology. Best wishes for the continuation of your work. I have enjoyed working with you. Marie Hickling Spiritual Life Coach |

Prompt timeframe and a very reasonable cost
I was referred to Marion by a large group of people on a local-based page on Facebook. It seems she has quite a following.
I had produced a rather limited tri-fold brochure for my diabetes counselling practice but realised it just wasn't professional enough to be taken seriously in the health sector. Marion produced an incredible version for me, in a very prompt timeframe, at a very reasonable cost, all accompanied by timely, knowledgeable and professional communication. I can't rate her highly enough. Katy Webber Specialist Diabetes and Health Counsellor |

Great ideas
Marion has been a pleasure to work with. For my 'new look' website, she came up with great ideas and formats that I would never have thought of and she does all of this with great ease. She was able to take my ideas and visions in my head and turn them into something that not only looks amazing, but is functional as well.
Marion is very easy to work with and does everything to the highest possible standard. I would not hesitate to utilise Marion’s skills again and highly recommend her to anyone. Caroline Karton Bowen and Myfascial Release Therapist Body Target |

Marion really listened to me
I was looking to build a website for my new massage business, so I went and asked around, did the Facebook post to all my friends, and I was referred to Marion by another massage therapist.
Marion has been fantastic. She really listened to me, used what information I could give her and has made me a beautiful website. She used the font I had specifically chosen and the colours I am using for my business. She took what was in my head and put it into digital format :) I would recommend her to anyone and everyone, she has been very good to me. Alexia Thorpe Massage Therapist |

Ties in perfectly with my existing brand
I am so happy with the work that Marion Jackson has done for me. She is super organised and so easy to deal with. She took on the design of my website quietly and diligently with almost no direction whatsoever and came up with something I truly love. It is logical, clear, easy to navigate, and ties in perfectly with my existing brand.
Marion also takes care of my social media pages for The Cath Vincent Show and quickly increased my followers in a short space of time. I can highly recommend her for a fuss-free service.

Working with Marion on our website was a dream. She interpreted our needs and wants well and was extremely responsive to the changes we required.
We were so pleased with the results, we are now planning another website with Marion for a different organisation. Di Paton and Jenny Harper Advantage |

So much fun to work withMy business involves women in their mature years, so a complicated website is out of the question and it must be user friendly, which is why I have chosen Marion to design my website.
If you're looking to set up a website, Marion is amazing! She currently has my website under construction and she is coming up with some fantastic and very creative ideas, plus she is so much fun to work with. I thoroughly recommend her service and its money well spent to get a professional who knows her stuff and puts the right ingredients into your website so it works for you. I often struggle trying to navigate around websites so a lot of people miss out on my business because I just give up! Marion takes all the stress and pressure off me so I can get on with the things I am good at... thank you Marion! Marion, my words are from the heart...and well deserved. I don't comment where it's not appropriate...but you ARE the best! Sue Doig Breast Care Essentials Omana, Auckland www.breastcareessentials.co.nz |

Expertise and valuable guidance
For the last 15 years I have not had to rely on advertising my dressmaking business because recommendations from a number of my clients have helped build up my business. So when we decided to move from the South East to the North East of the UK I had to think about advertising and decided to have a website built.
I had no idea where to start, but there was no need to panic because I got in touch with Marion. Her expertise, valuable guidance and advice made things easy for me, and she has built and launched an amazing website for my business. I am absolutely thrilled and delighted with the result. Marion is so professional and replied to all of my queries promptly. At this stage, my website has only been up and running for two weeks and it has already started to generate clients. I am so pleased with the website and I check the Stats every day and did not think I would - it is so exciting to see how many people have looked at it and I have acquired two new clients just this week! Thank you Marion, you are amazing! From your very chuffed client! Pamela Stretch Dressmaker Hornsea, England www.pamthedressmaker.com |

My Virtual Assistant newsletter feedback
Dear Marion
Some feedback: I rarely read newsletters from companies because mostly they are full of useless self promotional stuff, but I have to say that yours is GREAT! (There, I never thought I would say it!). I have an IPAD and am pretty well a technological desert that blooms only enough to get by but it is difficult sometimes. Ta da... some useful tips from you. Thanks! Cheers Marian Hudson |
|
Marion's experience was evident
Marion worked with us to redesign our website. Her prompt, relevant responses ensured the process went smoothly and her experience was evident in the questions asked of us and subsequent communications. Marion was willing to experiment to get the look and functionality Kite was after.
We are very happy with Marion’s service and pleased to recommend her. Kathleen Boyd Kite Communications Hastings, New Zealand |

Quick and efficient
I engaged Marion Jackson of My Virtual Assistant to design my website. She effectively converted my ideas into a workable website and has been really quick and efficient whenever I requested changes.
From my experience, I would fully endorse Marion for website design. D C Grant Author Auckland www.dcgrant.co.nz |

High level support
LinkedIn message: Claire Mahon (Director and Chief Executive Officer, Geneva, Switzerland) has recommended your work as Director at My Virtual Assistant. (May 2013)
Dear Marion, I've written the following recommendation of your work to share with other LinkedIn users. "Marion is super responsive, very friendly, highly professional, and is one of those people who has clearly worked in high level administrative roles for a long time and has a great sense as to what is needed and expected in this kind of support. She delivers a high quality product, on time, in a manner that is efficient and cost effective. She asks all the right clarifying questions along the way, without being too "needy", and is exactly the kind of high level support that I am used to dealing with in very well resourced organisations, but which I don't always get the pleasure of working with, and certainly can't always find (or afford) to hire when I'm working on my own. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend her. I think that having a VA is a really important step for a business operator, having the right person at hand to help you - someone who is also business savvy and knows what both running a business and doing the substance of their role as a VA is about - is vital to help you perform at your best. I found Marion to really understand this well." Service Category: Virtual Assistant Year first hired: 2010 (hired more than once) Top Qualities: Great Results, Personable, High Integrity |

Great eye for detail
Marion has worked with us on a number of projects. She's flexible, responsive and has a great eye for detail.
Marion works with us on producing major documents for use internationally and she has a good eye for look and feel so that outputs are enjoyable for recipients to engage with. If you don't have a full time PA, Marion works very well remotely, is very professional and delivers!

Updates every step of the way so there are no hidden surprises
Marion is a very communicative and professional person.
What we like about working with Marion is she always updates you every step of the way so there are no hidden surprises.

Fast, efficient and helpful assistance
You are my right hand woman! Without your fast, efficient and helpful assistance my new venture would not have looked so professional.
From coming up with a great name for my boutique, setting up my website and Facebook page, right through to creating a database, designing flyers and a monthly newsletter - all of which I would not have been able to achieve on my own, but know it’s so important in this computer/social media age, in the development and promotion of my business. Thank you, Marion. Tina Hegley-Smith Twirl Boutique Howick, Auckland |

Great work on our brochures

Reliable and proactive
Marion has provided admin and marketing support to me since November 2011 and I find her to be incredibly reliable, proactive and great at communicating with me.
She demonstrates great initiative - I know I can send her something with minimal info and she'll take it and sort it. It's great to have this kind of support in my business!

Knowledgeable, trusted and reliable
Marion is the first person I think of when I need help! Thank goodness a friend gave me Marion's name and number.
I am a busy Mum looking after my business, consulting from my home office. I was able to keep on top of my client's business needs, but my own needs were always being put at the bottom of the to do list! I needed a website, marketing materials and to start using some social media. Marion was fantastic in helping me create all of these. Since then, I use Marion on a regular basis for any changes I need to make to marketing and admin type tasks that I just can't get to myself. I have found that having fantastic help on hand from Marion means my time is better spent looking after my clients, while Marion looks after me! Marion completes all my requests in a very timely manner and to the highest standard. Marion is also very proactive with keeping in touch and offering suggestions for improvements. I thoroughly recommend Marion as a knowledgeable, trusted and reliable assistant for your business needs.

Incredibly adaptable
Marion is one of the most adaptable, can-do-it people I’ve met.
She is the type of person you want around you in a fast growing environment, where all you know, is there will be a constant of change. This demands having access to the kind of resource that is flexible, self starting and can adapt to any request. An incredibly adaptable person - she is able to turn her hand to anything and is amazingly flexible about dealing to the time pressures in business. Marion gets it done without fluster and with a smile. She is a joy to have around.

Help and supportDear Marion
Well done for helping us with the TEC day yesterday. Thank you for your involvement in all the different ways. What an exceptional place to have a meeting, not just because the 'classroom' was perfect (AV, Whiteboard, etc), but because of the GREAT staff that came and saw us, and helped. And the lunch bags - magic! We have at least two budding 007 types who brandished their guns for the rest of the day shooting things (lucky the speaker had left!) Many thanks for your help and support. Best wishes, Simon O'Shaughnessy Executive Coach and Innovative Visionary Carista |

Stress free
Marion has been amazing to work with. She is extremely knowledgeable and goes out of her way to ensure everything is done to a high standard.
I have had so much positive feedback from the wonderful website Marion has created for my business, that it is overwhelming. Nothing is stressful when dealing with Marion. She empowers your vision and works fast and efficiently in creating it. I highly recommend her and will certainly be using her services again.

Ticks all the boxes
There are a few times in one's working life when one comes across someone who ticks all the boxes and then some. Marion is one of these people.
Marion makes the business of doing business much easier and delivers over and above one's expectations. When I was late getting material to her for my website she explained that she couldn't get to it until after Christmas, but then promptly proceeded to complete the whole thing well before Christmas much to my absolute delight. Not only that but she was even happy to make minor adjustments right up to her last day of work before the Christmas break. Nothing is too much trouble for Marion, she is always cheerful, is readily able to tune into a client's needs and comes up with some excellent ideas. I look forward to a continued working relationship with Marion. Incidentally - I keep getting terrific feedback about my website - people really like it and the messages that it conveys. So, well done you! You got my website just soooo RIGHT! Christine Norton MBA Director/Personal Historian Forget-Me-Not Life Stories Omokoroa, New Zealand www.forget-me-notlifestories.co.nz |

Gets the job done on time
Marion has excellent attention to detail, knowlege and advice, and is always well versed with the latest ideas and processes. I have always found Marion very efficient in getting the job done on time.
A strength of Marion's is her ability to advise on areas that skirt on the periphery of her core services - something that I greatly appreciate especially when it comes to taste/design - as let's face it, us men don't always shine in that field! Shane Jones Owner Vodis Automobile Ltd Milford, Auckland |

Fast and accurate
Running a local rental property company means constantly keeping our website updated with the latest available properties, allowing prospective tenants to see what's currently available for rent.
Before I found Marion, I struggled to find the time to regularly maintain our website and sometimes had disappointed clients on the other end of the phone when they discovered a property they had seen on our website had already been rented out. Marion quickly learned the process of adding and removing property information and photographs onto our website, which she uploads as needed and this can be several times a week. She has been working with me for a full year now and her response to our requests is always fast and accurate, and as a result our website is always current. I'm very happy with the service I receive and recommend Marion to anyone wanting to keep their website up-to-date.

Make your working life easier
Marion Jackson has been updating our websites since 2009 and always does a fabulous job.
The Mountfort Estate Agents - Ray White Eastern group comprises of seven offices, with individual websites for each office. Any changes to one site must be duplicated across the other six. Marion always responds promptly to my requests, and makes the necessary changes quickly, easily and accurately. Recently our websites changed platforms, which required a complete rebuild within the Ray White template. Marion took on the task with her customary efficiency and quickly learned the necessary programming changes. She made a complicated process look easy. I would happily recommend Marion to anyone who requires secretarial or website assistance – she will make your working life much easier!

Entirely rely on Marion
I am writing this testimonial for Marion Jackson from My Virtual Assistant, and boy-oh-boy is she virtual!
In the busy world of real estate you need to be one step ahead of your fellow agents and with Marion’s help I have a brand new website that I believe gives me another dimension to my business. When I first decided to develop a new site I did some research into costs and bang for your buck. After talking to Marion she basically persuaded me in a millisecond that she could take over the whole project from end to end. I had the basic idea of what I wanted from the site and Marion picked those ideas up and ran with them to produce a fantastic addition to my business profile. Not only did Marion produce a superb website she also did this in quick time and extremely seamless, she was virtually inside my head space. I like to be across things in my business, controlling most aspects of my day-to-day schedule and workflow, not allowing others to take over the development of my website would normally be my thought process. After a very short time frame I realised I could entirely rely on Marion to work through everything with very little affect on my time. Marion also managed the change of service provider and reduced my website hosting costs. I would highly recommend Marion if you have any administration needs and I don't think there is anything she can't put her hand to. I am sure I will continue to work alongside Marion in future business. Thanks again, awesome job, Marion! Ian Taylor Branch Manager ITLSEL Ray White Real Estate |

Understanding of our needs
Hi Marion
Thank you so much for the wonderful work that you have done for Stoney Grove. You seemingly effortlessly have linked website, Twitter, Facebook and emails together to make them work much more efficiently, sent out a nice simple and effective newsletter to all of our contacts, added us to all sorts of sites to increase our profile – all of which we could have done for ourselves, eventually, after many hours of research and headaches. It was an absolute pleasure to hand everything over to you knowing that you would take care of it all for us. Your efficiency and understanding of our needs has been refreshing. Warmest regards. Sue Gallagher Stoney Grove – Macadamias and Almonds Nelson, New Zealand |

A life saver!
A great service. Not only did Marion deliver on time and offer us quality input into possible improvements to our marketing collateral content, she also picked up spellng and grammatical errors that had already been proof read by three different people - a life saver!

Always happy to help
Marion was recommended to me by a close friend, to help with the promotional and advertising side of my business.
The best thing I ever did was pick up the phone and ring Marion. She has been so helpful and had a clear understanding of what I needed after only one visit, and within a matter of weeks, I now have a new professional website up and running, as well as monthly newsletters that we are proud to send our clients, all at a fraction of the cost. I think Marion is absolutely fantastic she has done an amazing job and I love the fact that if I need to change something it's done instantly. If there's ever a problem she's always happy to help. She has made life so much easier and taken the stress and hassle out of advertising my business. I would be happy to recommend Marion, (I have done so already!), to anyone looking to market their business professionally and quickly. Marion, I can't thank you enough for everything you've done so far, and I look forward to continue working with you in the future. I'm glad I found you, too!

One of the most beautiful displays of human nature
You dont know me, but my name is Mel Hooper. I heard about your book Curly from Shirley through Victoria (the Illistrator) as I am a teacher at her son's pre -school.
I would just like to say a big thank you to all who helped with this book, and think what you are doing is one of the most beautiful displays of human nature I have ever seen! I was raised, and lived in Christchurch for 25 years, and my parents and younger sister still live down there. They have been devestated by this tragic event, twice. To see our home ruined and our beautiful city falling to pieces is heart breaking. This book has made me cry, not in sadness, but in pure happiness, that all of you would take the time out of your busy lives to do this for my family, friends, and the city I will always call home. Words can't explain my gratitude, but please share this email with all involved. Passing on my sincere gratitude for the amazing thing you are doing for the people of Christchurch. On behalf of me, my family, and my friends.....thank you!!!!! The book is fantastic, and I have purchased one, in hope of sharing with everyone I know to help get the word out! Once again thank you to all Kind regards Hooper Family, of Kaiapoi xoxoxox My Virtual Assistant strongly believes in giving back to the community and enjoyed working 'for love', proudly providing sponsorship and support, by building the website for 'Curly from Shirley, the Christchurch Dog'. |

A fabulous job
Dear Marion
A Summer Wrap @ Valley de Sol, on Saturday 19 March 2011, was an enormous success. We are delighted to let you know that we raised $22,000, which will be split evenly between Hospice South Auckland and the Christchurch Earthquake Appeal. We had a truly enjoyable day. The atmosphere was positively buzzing and it was fabulous to see so many people having a good time. Valley de Sol was bursting with positive energy, enthusiasm and overwhelming support for our two charities. We sincerely thank you for all the work you did setting up the concert website and managing it. You did a fabulous job and it was very reassuring knowing that the sponsor's names appeared as soon as they had contributed. Your generosity to A Summer Wrap @ Valley de Sol had a big impact on our end result and we are extremely grateful for the professionalism you brought to the concert. A special thank you for sharing the afternoon with us. Kindest regards Chris Bull And all the BNI Business Brunch Members Howick, Auckland, New Zealand My Virtual Assistant strongly believes in giving back to the community and enjoyed working 'for love', proudly providing sponsorship and support, by building the website for 'A Summer Wrap @ Valley de Sol'. |

What a great job!
Wow, that was quick! When you said you'd start work on the Geneva Guide this week I certainly hadn't expected to receive it already on Monday! What a great job! This is really excellent, thanks so much. This is exactly what I had in mind, as it makes the Guide much more readable.
The pictures look fabulous and made me smile - you definitely found great ones to reflect the issues discussed in the Guide, and good shots of the accommodation, which will make it more 'real' for the students. Thanks Marion, this is looking really good! Claire Mahon International Human Rights Lawyer Geneva, Switzerland www.clairemahon.net |

Don't know how I've ever managed without Marion
I didn't even know what a Virtual Assistant was until a few weeks ago, and now I don't know how I've ever managed without one! Or more specifically, without Marion.
In mere moments and with minimal and scattered instruction, she's streamlined my process and paperwork, set up wonderful communications including newsletters, YouTube links and book trailers, and even designed and put together a whole new website for me. This is all for a fraction of the money that I've shelled out to other folks who didn't really finish the job, or that I wasted trying to sort it all out for myself. Marion is a treasure, an absolute find, and I can't recommend her highly enough. Jill Marshall Author New Zealand & England |

I'm so glad I found you
It is with pleasure that I provide Marion with my personal recommendation.
Marion has helped from the beginning of MJ & MJ Trading Limited’s launch. With her amazing skill set she was able to put together all my product catalogues, produce and create my website, organise various mediums to promote my business in local directories and even a wonderful little YouTube presentation. Marion takes away the hassle and stress that can be created because I don’t have the skills and time to do the parts of business that I don’t enjoy, leaving me the ability to concentrate on the parts that I do enjoy and put my skill set into good use in my business, making it a pleasure to run and a successful small business. Marion has saved me an immense amount of time, enabling me to focus on the important part of my business - sales creation. Thanks Marion, for all your help and our continued business relationship. I’m so glad I found you! Maria Stephens Director MJ & MJ Trading Limited Auckland |

A breath of fresh air
I have to share with you how fantastic it is having Marion as my Virtual Assistant - she is like a breath of fresh air. She has incredible understanding and insight into what you want. You can give Marion minimal instructions and she understands what you are looking for.
Marion has prepared templates for Abfab Business Results incorporating some really boring stuff and she enhanced this by adding original and thought provoking images. After seeing the completed documents, which were returned well before deadline, I was so impressed I even told Marion her prices were too low! Marion is also amazing at creating websites, she is listens to what people want, whilst also advising clients on what will work for their business. I highly recommend Marion - awesome to work with and keeps to all timelines. Sue Howe Director Abfab Business Results Auckland |

A real passion
Marion was my Executive Assistant for four years in the ‘real’ world and she's a fantastic assistant.
Marion’s got a real passion for what she does and pays close attention to getting the job done right, first time. She’s saved me a lot of time, is reliable and very efficient. Now that Marion’s set up her own business, I love the fact that I can call on her whenever I need her, and I know she’ll always do a fantastic job.

Secondly, a very cost effective and professional service. Finally, loved the creative slides you sourced for the brief I gave you. No questions, no fuss, just terrific service.

Exceeded my expectations
The following is an extract from a reference written by a former employer and refers to my role as Executive Assistant to the Chief Executive Officer:
During the time she worked for me at Excell Corporation, I found Marion to be an extremely competent person who quickly and easily understood both my requirements and the fuller requirements of the role, and undertook them brilliantly. In every aspect of her duties Marion’s performance met and exceeded my expectations. Marion is an intelligent and intuitive individual who displays excellent motivation and innovation. These skill sets were well used in her wider role with particular emphasis on her duties, assisting me in developing a much stronger brand image for the company. Marion also took the lead in Communications and Media Relations and I feel strongly that our public profile was never better than during her time in that position. As a result of the above, I have no hesitation in fully endorsing Marion, as I know from direct experience she will bring excellent interpersonal skills, dedication and commitment, as well as a high level of professional delivery. David Geor Chief Executive Officer Excell Corporation Limited |
