Day 21 - Do you know what I do yet?

Ok so you've been dipping in and out of my blogs for three weeks now are you any more familiar with what I do? Or what I can do for you? I know some of my clients are reading this and they will know what I am doing for their businesses but there are many other things I can do too. So here's a list of 40 things I can do for your business to make your day to day life better.



  1. Help you set up your website/blog.
  2. Set up your email list.
  3. Transcribe voice memos you record on your phone, and then email them to you.
  4. Fix problems with your iTunes account 
  5. Spend hours comparing and contrasting all the hotels in London and present you with a categorised list of the top ten, their features and then book the one you want for you.
  6. Unsubscribe you from those annoying mailing lists that just won’t stop.
  7. Send out emails that say “Hi, this is {insert your name here}’s assistant” which always impresses friends and family.
