I was so overwhelmed with admin when my business grew and I knew I wanted to spend more time taking photos and doing the part I love. I’d seen Katie’s name pop up here and there and decided to reach out.

Katie knows my business now so well that sometimes she gives me into trouble for doing something wrong haha! She’s taken so much pressure off of me and it’s massively helped.

I feel like my business is much more agile and in flow because I know the emails and admin side are taken care of but I also know I can ask Katie to help with projects that help me scale again too.

I’ll never be more thankful to Katie than I was this summer. When I was abroad my dad took critically ill and it was a very overwhelming time. Katie, in my eyes, went above and beyond for me. My business kept running and she looked after all of the admin and communications with people.

How would you describe the experience of working with me? I love it, we’ve been working together now for a while so any teething problems have been solved and I really don’t need to think about my admin. I’ve also gained a friend who gets motherhood and being in business too.

Would you recommend my services to other business owners? Yes!!! It just helps ease parts of your business that don’t sing to you and means Katie can take care of it and let you do something else.

My biggest challenge has always been time — running multiple projects meant things were getting chaotic, and I needed someone to step in and bring structure. The Scottish VA helped organise tasks, keep everything on track, and take a lot off my plate. If you’re juggling too much and need someone reliable to create order out of the madness, The Scottish VA is brilliant.

The support didn’t just save me time — it saved me from needing to hire extra staff altogether. They quickly understood what I needed, organised everything efficiently, and kept the wheels turning without any hassle. If you’re looking for someone who can step in, streamline your workload, and free you up to focus on growth, they’re a fantastic choice.

The Scottish VA brought structure to parts of my business that desperately needed it, and their organisation helped things run far more smoothly. On top of that, the extra clarity and consistency even led to a few new bookings coming in.

How would you describe the experience of working with me? Easy to work with, very approachable, and brought much-needed structure to my day-to-day. That extra organisation even led to a few new bookings coming in. Overall, a smooth, positive experience that made a real difference.

Would you recommend my services to other business owners? Yes

Struggling with small tasks that just needed completed in a time key fashion. You got it done, no questions. Rapid. You knew how to tackle the task, and even gave me advice.

How would you describe the experience of working with me? Super easy, will be using you again for something next week.

Would you recommend my services to other business owners? Yes! I already have.

Katie is amazing I tell everyone about her! Struggling with things like a good registration form, setting up CRM systems and keeping on top of my mailing list. All that stuff that sat at the bottom of my to do list was finally getting done and I feel I’m making my business better especially as it’s still growing, she’s able to help with all the stuff I don’t have the experience on so I can focus on what I am good at!

Plus coming into 2025 I have all my personal appointments booked in my diary. I am feeling the most organised I have felt in a long time.

How would you describe the experience of working with me? So straight forward stuff that I thought I would have to spend time showing you how to do you just done it no questions asked!

Would you recommend my services to other business owners? Always do it!

I was struggling with the amount of admin required for running 3 businesses.

Katie has taken the weight off my burden of admin! I was struggling to find the time to schedule social media so that was one area where I was happy to hand over!

How would you describe the experience of working with me? Fantastic! You coped so well with managing to juggle between different businesses and getting to grips with knowing them.

Would you recommend my services to other business owners? Of course!

I was struggling with managing and completing a range of tasks from managing my calendar, booking appointments, setting up meetings and completing HR paperwork.

Working with Katie helped me allocate space in my calendar for the variety of tasks that I require to complete, ensuring that deadlines were met and time was prioritised in relation to business need. This reduced my overwhelm and ensured continuity in business.

How would you describe the experience of working with me? Flexible, responsive, friendly, helpful and enjoyable.

Would you recommend my services to other business owners? Absolutely. You have been efficient, proactive and patient.

Working with Katie @ The Scottish VA has been nothing short of delightful. Katie is professional, personable and very competent.

I am making long overdue changes to my business because I am not alone anymore. I have backup, in terms of time and also a change in mindset from being a solopreneur to becoming a business owner, with potential for a larger team.

As a solopreneur, I've been unable to activate the natural growth required for my business and have known that I need help for sometime. However, I'm not at the stage where I can afford to hire PAYE staff. It's a conundrum that many folk like me face.

Hiring a VA that I can book for a specific amount of hours each month allows me to plan and take action on different aspects of my business that were previously stuck. I don't worry about meeting a PAYE obligation and instead can be flexible with more or less hours as per the needs of the business and my own time availability. The Scottish VA is a professional service that has proven to be just the perfect fit for me.

I am so thankful that I hopped onto Insta back in the summer and saw your ad, Katie! For the first time, I am in the position of imagining a business with a team behind it to help me put into action all of the many plans that have been simmering on the backburner for too long! For that, I am beyond grateful! I can't wait for the next stage! Thank you.

I have been working with Katie for a month now and I cannot explain how much every entrepreneur needs her in their corner. As I am moving through my busy period and trying to relaunch my business, Katie came in at the best time. She is incredibly efficient and makes light work of the tasks that would take me days. As a solo worker it has been so nice to have another person to talk to, share the load and occasionally have a shoulder to lean on.

If any business owners need a help I cannot recommend Katie enough.

Thank you so much for everything you have been incredible & I’ll shout your name from the rooftops. Huge asset.

Katie was an absolute delight to work with! After sending a quick brief of what I was looking for she absolutely surpassed expectations. Quick, professional and great at what she does I cannot recommend Katie enough x
