So many websites..!
Southern Stars Charitable Trust
The original website for Southern Stars Charitable Trust was built by My Virtual Assistant in 2019, and after recent changes within the Trust, it was time for a fresh new look online too.
READ MORE
There was no hesitation in handing the reins back to My Virtual Assistant, who was given the creative freedom to bring Southern Stars' story to life in a bold, new way.

READ MORE
Philippa, who lives in the UK, decided to take over and contacted My Virtual Assistant for help.
Having been born in East Africa myself, I jumped at the opportunity to build a new website for Kapatagat Prep School, using the Rocketspark website platform
The site has a fresh look, utilising the school's colours combined with an African feel. It is also laid out in a user-friendly way to enable other ex-pupils of the school to find what they are looking for and remain connected to a relevant part of their upbringing.
With so many memories from as far back as the 1940's, this website has been created solely for ex-students and teachers to fondly reminisce about their days at Kaptagat Prep.

Castle European
Castle European owners, Sarah and Trevor Lay, had no problem switching to Rocketspark, an NZ-based website platform.
READ MORE
Although their original website, created in 2019, had a layout and content they were happy with, they recognised the importance of moving over to the new platform sooner rather than later.
To ensure a smooth transition, My Virtual Assistant successfully replicated the original site, enabling Castle European’s customers to access the information they need.

Quixotic Candles
Simone from Quixotic Candles usually sticks to black and white, however, she decided to step out of her comfort zone and allow bright colours to burst throughout her website.
READ MORE

Michael's decision to transfer his website to Rocketspark was an easy choice driven by the platform's strong reputation and robust backend functionality.
Oakhill Carpentry
The Oakhill Carpentry website, originally built in 2020 by My Virtual Assistant, had been serving Phillip Smith and his business well.

He jumped at the opportunity to move his site over to Rocketspark, realising the NZ-based platform would not only meet his current needs but also support the growth of his business.
This time, Phillip requested a website with a flexible layout - one that could easily expand as he takes on more building projects.
The new design is crafted to evolve alongside Oakhill Carpentry, allowing the website to grow and adapt as the business continues to thrive and develop.

Massive congratulations to Vanessa Munford, who is the proud new owner of Strawberry Garden Childcare.
READ MORE
The Strawberry Garden Childcare website was due to expire at the same time Vanessa took over the reins, so she jumped at the chance to make the move over to Rocketspark.
The brief required an improved online presence, along with providing a better user experience for website visitors.

The Learning Ladder

PathLight
The PathLight website was about to expire with Weebly, so Jon jumped at the chance to make the move over to Rocketspark and avoided having to pay a renewal fee.
READ MORE
When Jon Kershaw got in touch with My Virtual Assistant, he had a fair idea of how he wanted his website to look but was also open to suggestions.
The original colours of the Pathlight logo were rather vivid and it was agreed that the overly bright colours could make the logo and website look rather dated, so softer tones of blue and green were chosen.
Logo options were then created by My Virtual Assistant and after a few tweaks, Jon was very happy with the final design.
For brand consistency, the new logo colours have been carried throughout the website.
It was important to Jon that his website focused on user experience - not just how the site looked, but also ease of navigation.
Force Line Engineering

DAS Foods
Michelle and Dean from DAS Foods are very happy with their choice to have their website built by My Virtual Assistant, using the Rocketspark platform.
READ MORE
When Michelle and Dean got in touch with My Virtual Assistant, they mentioned that their existing website was very minimal and rather outdated.
One of the main issues they had was unclear contact information, making it difficult for people to get in touch.
They also had several potential suppliers looking at their site thinking they were a small online food store.
Dean and Michelle wanted to project a professional image, as well as explain who they are and what they do.
They also needed the site to be easily updated with new FMCG products which are constantly being sourced from around the globe.
CU4Admin Limited
My Virtual Assistant was beyond flattered to be asked to build a website for fellow Virtual Assistant, Carole Unkovich from CU4Admin Limited.
READ MORE
Back in 2012, My Virtual Assistant was awarded Runner Up Virtual Assistant of the year. The award was presented to me by one of the event organisers, Carole Unkovich. Carole and I have remained in contact ever since.
Jump ahead a mere 12 years, and Carole recently got in touch to ask if My Virtual Assistant would build a new website for CU4Admin.
Carole's existing website was with Weebly and after seeing that My Virtual Assistant’s website had been moved from Weebly to Rocketspark, she decided it was time to do the same.
Carole took the opportunity to completely update the layout of her old website and gave My Virtual Assistant free rein over the design and build, for CU4Admin Limited's new site.
The vivid colours of CU4Admin's logo were carried throughout the new format, creating a cohesive, bright, and friendly feel.
The resulting site is user-friendly and informative, which is exactly what Carole was looking to achieve.
NZPGS
The Owners/Directors of NZPGS recognised their new website needed to showcase the incredible work they do and the services they provide.

New brand colours, larger images, concise navigation, and an easy-to-read layout was agreed upon.

READ MORE
Both websites have been operating perfectly well over the years, and as it always happens, time goes by and eventually it's time for a 'birthday'.
Now, it's 2023 and things have changed quite a bit in the world of websites, so the owner knew the time was right to have both sites rebuilt.
My Virtual Assistant is happy to announce the recent launch of two new childcare websites, both of which were built using the NZ-based Rocketspark platform.

READ MORE
Anna had a few vague ideas about what she would like but needed guidance through the process.
She contacted My Virtual Assistant after being highly recommended by Deborah Macrae, a presenter at a course Anna attended. (Thank you, Deborah!)
Anna says, ‘There's nothing like a good recommendation especially when you don't know what you are doing or supposed to be looking for.’
Anna had photos taken, along with some beautiful branding work, which was to be incorporated throughout her site.
The website needed to be professional, clear, concise, and informative, making it easy for potential clients to quickly find what they are looking for.
My Virtual Assistant enjoyed working with Anna and is happy to announce the launch of her new website, powered by Rocketspark.

Kirsten French
Thelma French has been receiving monthly newsletters from My Virtual Assistant since February 2012.
READ MORE
Understandably, Covid caused a huge decline in the general public attending this regular event and Malvina was keen to use a website to promote the Car Boot Sale and to attract people into coming along.
She also needed a centralised location where sellers could find all the information they needed about setting up their stalls.
Malvina hoped for a bright, colourful website to attract the general public which would encourage them to bring along their families and their friends to join in on the fun.
My Virtual Assistant worked to create an appealing, user-friendly website with moving graphics, which Malvina loved!
Website built by My Virtual Assistant and powered by Rocketspark.
Plastics Constructions Limited
After looking at a website built by My Virtual Assistant, Sarah Selwood from Plastics Constructions Ltd liked what she saw and decided to get in touch.
READ MORE
Thelma’s daughter, Kirsten, has worked as a personal trainer for 20 years, operating without a website and meaning to get around to it.
When the time finally came, Thelma knew exactly who should build Kirsten’s website.
Kirsten asked for a professional, ‘approachable’ website; one that wasn’t intimidating to potential clients, and of course it needed to be user-friendly and responsive.
My Virtual Assistant loved every minute of working with Kirsten and was lucky enough to share in the joy and excitement when Kirsten first saw her website draft for the very first time.
Such a pleasure and an honour to be involved with helping Kirsten “complete her business dream” now that she has a website to showcase what she does and how she can help people achieve their health and lifestyle goals.
After the new website was launched, Thelma emailed My Virtual Assistant and said, "I knew there was a reason to save your newsletters!"
Elim Car Boot Sale
When Malvina Zainey needed a new website for Elim Car Boot Sale, she searched online and found My Virtual Assistant listed in the New Zealand Virtual Assistant Directory.
READ MORE
Sarah sent an email to My Virtual Assistant, explaining that Plastics Constructions is a small business with a 15-year-old website in need of an overhaul.
Their clients are primarily industrial and they received a lot of repeat and word-of-mouth business.
Plastics Constructions was keen to attract new candidates/workers, who will no doubt view their website when they advertise job vacancies, and they knew it was time for a more professional and appealing website.
My Virtual Assistant set about building a bright, new, user-friendly, website for Plastics Constructions, using NZ-based platform, Rocketspark.
