Frequently Asked Questions

What is a Freelance Secretary?

A Freelance Secretary (often referred to as a Virtual Secretary) is someone who can offer you secretarial and administrative assistance in person or remotely. The work style is freelance as you only pay for the hours that are worked and there are no extra charges such as holiday or sickness.

How much will it cost for me to have help?

I offer a FREE 30 minute consultation where we can meet to discuss your needs and how much my services would cost you. My prices are set out on the prices tab.

Will I get value for money?

Just check out my testimonials for evidence of this. You only pay for the hours that are worked (with time charged in 30 minute increments). Work can either be done on your premises or in my fully equipped home office thus saving you any additional costs.

Does the work have to be regular?

No, not at all, that's why I am a Freelance Secretary. You have all the services of a full time secretary but with the flexibility you want - and you only pay for the hours that you want me to work. If you want a reduction in the hourly rate I do offer retention packages (check out my prices tab). But rest assured once you have had work from me you will add me as one of your emergency contact numbers!

How confidential is this service?

Completely. I have standard terms and conditions, but tailor a specific Client Terms and Conditions for each client ensuring full confidentiality of all work undertaken. Signed agreement of both these documents is required before any work is completed. Please read our full GDPR Privacy statement.
