Personal Assistance
My longest-standing client was a town and transport planner who described himself as a "planning odd job man" so I helped him identify what he was truly passionate about and develop such a unique niche in canal restoration that he had no competition and work just landed in his lap!
I then challenged him to submit a paper into the World Canal Conference in Syracuse, USA, and he was accepted to speak alongside world-class experts!
This then opened the door to a fabulous business trip to the East Coast of America, where we were able to enjoy our shared interests in regeneration, music, history & heritage - visiting the site of Woodstock festival, Niagara Falls, Jon Bon Jovi's Soul Kitchen (where we met the man himself!) and more.
We shared many other adventures in work too!
This client was a mature, independent singer/songwriter releasing her second album and needed help with tech, admin, social media and getting gigs etc.
I was also able to consult on how to release an album professionally and luckily she found an affordable promoter and got a review in national press next to the London Philharmonc Orchestra with one of the photos I'd taken in the outfit I'd also found for her.
I loved working with this client as I could understand her challenges so I was really motivated to help her be successful.
This was possibly more about the transformation of my life cause I was being paid to get out of sleepy ol' Frome and work in the music business!
I was hired to be Office Manager for a top publisher who was experiencing overwhelm and so I was able to take on a lot of the admin, tech and interfacing with clients so that my client could just get on with working on deals and contracts.
This client was just about to release a christmas single and needed help promoting it with no budget for paying a PR company (when do we ever think about budgeting for a PR campaign!) so I sat with her (online) and walked her through the steps of uploading to BBC Introducing and wrote a press release which we sent to local community radio stations.
Her song got some radio play and she was invited to do an inerview, which she smashed! I also did some social media content for her but essentially this became more about building foundational confidence (on & offline) in such a challenging industry, and managing overwhelm.
