We free up your time to grow your bottom line

We believe that Coaches should Coach, Surveyors should Survey and Plumbers should Plumb.  Get the gist?  If you’re not doing what you are great at, you’re not maximizing the growth of your business.  At Vi-VA we let you focus on driving your business forward, by taking on the stuff that’s slowing you down.

The cost-effective thing about Vi-VA is that there’s absolutely no tie-in.  You have access to flexible and affordable expertise as and when you need it.  Whether it’s emails to be checked, books to be done, unpaid invoices to be chased, a spreadsheet to be designed, calls to be made, a presentation to be collated… Vi-VA is the pain relief for your admin headaches.

Talent on Tap

We keep your business flowing with administrative, secretarial, creative, credit control expertise and more!

Having said that, Jack of all Trades we are not.  We won’t dabble in stuff we’re not great at.  As well as efficient VAs with tons of talent and initiative, we have a specialist in Social Media and a specialist in Spreadsheet Design.  We’ve also partnered with a Chartered Accountant who offers everything from basic bookkeeping and VAT returns through to tax advice and raising finance.

Peace of Mind

You won’t have to chase us for deadlines.  You don’t need to worry that we’ll phone in sick.  We don’t need you to buy us software. Or hardware.  Or anything else for that matter.

In fact, you don’t have to worry about anything.  Just hand it over and it’ll get done.  Efficiently.

In the unlikely event you are not happy with our work, we will give you a full refund.

We at Vi-VA are looking to help you with our new and exciting services in the lifestyle department. We understand how difficult it is to remember everything and juggle work and home life, and the overwhelming feeling of making sure everything is done on the correct day whether it’s the children’s PE kit or a friend’s birthday.

• We will find the best priced tradesmen for whatever job needs doing and then wait in for them for you so you don’t miss work.

• We will help cut your outgoings by doing comparisons on your utilities and car insurance.

• We will help book flights and accommodation and make sure your house is checked on while you’re away.

• We will sort out your car tax, pick up the dry cleaning, drop off the library books, and collect parcels.
