“Before working with Lisa, I was like so many other business owners starting out: doing it all myself. As I got busier with client work, I realized I needed to add support to help me serve my clients well, maintain sales & marketing consistency, and not become overworked in the process. When I found Lisa’s website, I was intrigued by Lisa’s breadth of expertise and her experience working with coaches. Deciding to work with Lisa was the best decision for me. We’ve been working together now for 2.5 years and going! Lisa is diligent and not afraid of a tech problem. She helps me stay organized and consistent with my marketing and supports my client onboarding process. As a result, I have more time and energy to focus on my business and deliver great service to my clients. She’s been, and continues to be, invaluable to me and my business!”

“Thank you for all you have done to help me with my business. I appreciate all of the details you have looked after and that you did them with the utmost care and professionalism. You stepped in and continued to post in my group when I just simply couldn’t bring myself to get to it or know what to say, and you have always looked after everything so efficiently and professionally.”

“I have been working for myself since 2002 and I really know that administration is NOT my strength or passion! When my coaching business evolved to an even more virtually-based model, it was definitely time to find someone to help me. I researched an spoke to many different VA’s and, after one disastrous choice after another, I am so very glad I finally found Lisa and The Virtual Solution!

Lisa is always prompt, helpful and professional. She knows her stuff and can explain how things work in easy to understand language. She sets up the needed systems to make my online coaching business work – website changes, promotions, webinars, enrollment, payments and more – she really makes my vision for my business a reality! I whole-heartedly recommend her as a essential support for any coach wanting to grow their business online.”

“I have had VAs in the past but none so on-top-of things as Lisa. She gets things done promptly, she does them well and always goes a beyond expectations. She knows a lot too!”

“I have resisted and put off hiring a VA because I couldn’t afford it. In reality, trying to do it myself cost me more time and frustration, and I didn’t do it as well as Lisa MacDonald, the techie VA did!!

Thank you Lisa for all your help with this. Website has been revamped and a landing page created for my IFO, and I love what Lisa has done. I feel so relieved with her taking care of my video blogs. It clears my head so I can work on client stuff!”

“You are a goddess! This project was a challenge for me to do on my own because it was not my area of expertise. As a result, the time I was spending on it was taking me away from running my business. It was wonderful to have someone as talented, efficient and full of integrity as you, to help me with it. I hope our paths cross again soon!”

“Lisa made my pages beautiful for my landing page setup and, more importantly, the sequence all works — way more moving parts than I could have figured out. I can’t thank-you enough!”

I’ve been in business for 2 years now trying to do it all on my own. My first lesson learned is “You need a VA!” After my first strategy call with Lisa I immediately felt like I was in good hands and was not alone in my business anymore.

Lisa was able to explain to me all that needed to be done on the back side of my business (in understandable terminology, as I am not techno savvy).

Lisa is brilliant! She took all of my ideas and business needs, and within a week had put what I had no idea of how to do, into a professional operating system where I now feel comfortable inviting my clients into my business.

Now I can share my gift to the world and not have to worry or waste my time figuring out all of the intricate moving pieces that go on behind the scenes.

Thank you Lisa for your brilliance, efficiency and professionalism in helping me step up my business, knowing I have a business partner that I can trust and count on to help me get to where I want to go.

“When I turned to Lisa MacDonald, it was simply out of need–I couldn’t keep up with transcriptions of my program calls, and needed Lisa to help me catch up. However, not only did she get me out of that crisis, but also she did the job better than I had been doing it. So when I needed a website makeover, I incorporated Lisa from the start–and again, the results exceeded my expectations, all without me having to spend time on the details. Now, I literally sit down and consider how I can transfer tasks to Lisa, as it’s frankly one of my best business strategies.”

“I found Lisa to be very professional, always on schedule and very helpful. Unlike many VAs, Lisa is a partner in your business, not just a “doer” of the things you wish to delegate. Her business acumen is excellent and her ability to keep her clients away from the shiny objects is extremely valuable!

If you are looking for a business partner to confidently handle the “back end” of your business, look to Lisa! She’s an expert!”

“I couldn’t do this without my virtual office service. Lisa does all the things I don’t want to do or don’t have a clue how to do. Yes, it costs money, but look at the rate per hour. If I ask her to do something for me that involves technology, I guarantee you I end up spending a lot less because she knows what she is doing, and does it quickly and correctly. I’m sure I could figure it out, but at what cost, and would it be done right?

My policy is, stick to what you’re good at and make money to pay for help with those things that you are not. This has allowed me to grow a successful business and still have a life. To me, that’s priceless. So thank you to my virtual assistant! Because of you, I work in my pajamas late at night because I want to, not because I have to.”

“Before hiring Lisa, my website was not reflective of me. Now it is totally where I am at and I am loving it. Lisa helped me get my real self out there, and I was able to get clear and decisive about how I wanted to show up. Now I’m proud of my site.”

Angela van de Riet

Life Coach, Engaged Living

“Before working with Lisa, my VA’s would always make excuses as to why things were not done on time. Lisa shows up 100% and everything is done with integrity, organization, clarity, and precision. She always knows how to solve every technical issue and every launch I have ever done goes off without a single hitch. She is truly professional and organized. I highly recommend Lisa’s services and am grateful for all the support she provides my business!”

Raquel Reyna

Spiritualized Biz Coach

“Not only was the timing perfect for me but, Lisa’s expertise in technology, website, social media, marketing, joint venture and event support were exactly what I was looking for. I know what I am good at and I know that I want to spend my time doing what I’m good at. I want someone else who is good at the stuff I’m not good at to be REALLY good at that stuff. That’s Lisa. The best part is that Lisa is so self-motivated that she needs little if any direction from me … in fact, it is more likely that she tells me what I need to be doing. I LOVE that.In a nut shell, Lisa is a resourceful, highly intelligent, techno-savvy and easy-going VA who knows all about how to set up and manage the back-end systems and processes needed by coaches, holds results-oriented strategy sessions that move the business forward and has a very laid-back manner about her that exudes quiet confidence in her ability to handle my business the way I want it handled.”
