Description

My Faithful Assistant Provides Administrative, Marketing & Technical Assistance To Organizations, Businesses, Individuals & Realtors. We Can Help You Grow Your Business & Keep Your Overhead Down!

About Us:

My Faithful Assistant, founded by Sherri Fowler, is a Virtual Assistant Company.

My Faithful Assistant (MFA) provides Administrative and Marketing Services to clients nationwide.  It doesn't matter where clients are located because MFA can provide services to clients via phone, email, fax and online...virtually.

There are many reasons why hiring MFA can be a sound business decision.  One reason is because MFA is an independent contractor, not an employee, and you can hire MFA on an as-needed basis.  Therefore, you won't have the expense that goes along with hiring a full-time employee.  With MFA, you are only charged for the materials and services you need, when you need them, or for as long as you need them.

Besides keeping your overhead low, delegating your non-revenue, mundane, time-consuming tasks to us will open up the opportunity for you to focus on the things that will generate revenue and grow your business.  You should be in the leadership role of building your business, not the position of an office assistant.

If you've never used a Virtual Assistant (VA) before, we suggest delegating one project on your "to do" list to us.  We understand it's hard to "let go".  We also realize in order for your business to grow, you are not going to be able to perform each task or required duty within your business.  That's why our completing one project for you will give us an opportunity to prove our dependability, service and cost-effectiveness to you, which then opens up the door for a trusting, long lasting relationship...one project at a time.

It doesn't matter if you are a veteran business owner or brand new in business, you can benefit from using MFA.  Whether you need help getting started, help maintaining, or help on a continual basis...we would love the opportunity to earn your business.

All projects are welcome:

• small,
• large,
• one-time only,
• daily,
• weekly,
• monthly,
• quarterly or
• yearly. 

We believe each project should be tailored to the individual needs of each client.  Because each client has an individual style and different preferences which makes them unique, it in turn sets them apart from their competition.  We will take the time to get to know your unique style and preferences in order to help you with each project.

You need an ally to help grow your business.  And as your ally...we'd be delighted to assist you in your business needs.

Sample of Services

Below is an outline of several services we have provided for other organizations and individuals to date.  Keep in mind, this is only a partial list of services.  The types of services we can provide are only limited by your service needs.  And all services are tailored specifically to each client.

Brochures - Flyers:  Brochures and flyers can be used for personal promotion or business promotions (grand openings, sales events, etc.).  They can be printed, mailed or emailed.  Some typical uses would be; handing out at events, mailing to potential or existing customers, or emailing to a contact database.

Newsletters:  Newsletters are a great marketing tool.  They can be used to update your customers on current events, or upcoming monetary needs if you're a non-profit organization.  Their best use is to keep your name in front of existing clients and potential customers.  Realtors use them frequently to keep their clients informed of market conditions and to promote their active listings.  They can also be printed, mailed or emailed.

Email Marketing:  Whether you use email marketing for personal promotion or business promotions, it is the least expensive way to date to get you and your business in front of customers or clients.  Email blasts can be sent to an existing contact database.  Or, you can add an opt-in list for an email blast to your existing website.  If you use it as an opt-in list, be sure that you offer your customers some good information.

News & Magazine Advertising:  We will write up and place your ad in the newspapers or magazines of your choice.  Keep in mind with news print advertising, it can be costly.  Despite the cost, you can reach a multitude of people with print advertising.  Whether you are using it for personal or business promotion, you can reach potential customers that you may not have reached otherwise.  The key to print advertising is to be consistent with it.

Database Management:  Database or contact management is one of the most time-consuming tasks a business owner can take on.  Typically, you're entering the information into a database program that continually needs updating.  Unfortunately, most of us don't get away with just entering the information once and are able to forget about it thereafter.  Mainly because people move, their positions change for employment, and phone or fax numbers change.  Don't let the mundane, time-consuming task of keeping a contact management go however.  Why?  Because your contact database is a great resource for repeat customers and referrals.

Clerical & Secretarial:  Don't you wish sometimes that you had an extra hand for the day?  An employee is on vacation or off sick.  Or better yet, you'd like to take a vacation or a day off.  Well, don't fret.  We offer various types of clerical and secretarial support.  Email and voicemail follow-up, scheduling and reminders. Letter writing, mail merges, word processing, announcements, thank you notes, inquiries, and personal promotions.  Correspondence, document preparations, graphs, mailouts, and spreadsheets.  Just to name a few!

Realtor Assistance:  The other services listed can also be used for Realtors.  However, the type of service I'm going to describe is geared more toward real estate agents.  One of those services is postcards.  Postcard mailings of various sorts.  Just listed, just sold, open house, and farming.  The postcards can be direct mailed to your farm area or contact database.  The postcards can include one listing or multiple listings.

Another service specific for Realtors is MLS input.  We can input data into your MLS, if it's allowed by your local Board of Realtors.  Data input would consist of property information, descriptions, photo and document uploads.

Client Gifts & Promotional Items:  Gifts of various sorts.  Thank you gifts, anniversary gifts, birthday gifts, marriage gifts, and baby gifts to name several.  A variety of promotional items.  Pens, note pads, coffee mugs, items with or without company logo or slogan.  Items can be direct mailed.

Internet Marketing:  Internet marketing is one of the best ways to get you and your company visible to the public.  Internet marketing can consist of posting you or your company profile onto networking sites or newsboards for example.  It can also consist of blogging about you, your business or your products as well.

Website Maintenance:  Updates and maintenance on your existing website.  It can also consist of updating a blog on your website.  For Realtors, website maintenance is crucial because you need current information given to your clients at all times.  For businesses, promoting your products, announcing a new client or announcing the expansion of your business is all news worthy for potential customers.

Spreadsheets & Presentations:  Some examples of spreadsheets are market updates, profit & loss comparisons, and itemization of expenses.  Presentations can be for public speaking engagements, personal or business promotions.  Presentations can be prepared for printing, emailing, linking or websites.

Research:  Research can be done for private investigators, Realtors or virtually any type of business.  When you need information about a product, a person, or an area and don't have the time it takes to take on the task yourself, we can assist you.

Bookkeeping:  Bookkeeping is typically the least favorite thing people like to do.  Who likes to look at a stack of invoices and realize you've got your work cut out for you in order to pay them?  Well, for those of you who either don't enjoy the task of bookkeeping or don't have the time, we offer our assistance to you.  We will email you a profit and loss statement at the end of each week so you know where your business stands financially.  We also can reconcile your bank statements if you'd prefer.

Please keep in mind for some of the above mentioned services, remote login would be required for us to gain access to your computer.  If you have a specific program you use that's internet based, then we would just need your login and password information.

All marketing materials are emailed or faxed to you for approval before it is sent to print, emailed or mailed to your database or prospects.

Projects of all size are welcome.  If you choose services on a continual basis, you may choose to mail us a retainer for future work to be performed.  That way there is no delay in your on-going services and you are guaranteed the hours you need work performed within your time frame required.  For retainer clients, statements are emailed to you after work is performed so you know how much you have left on retainer.  All work can be discontinued whenever you choose.

Our desire is to help you grow your business while keeping your costs low.  In order to keep your costs low, we do not believe in wasting time while performing services for you.  High costs to our clients would result in us not having a clientele at all.  That, of course, is not our goal.

I hope you found the above information to be useful.  And if you have any questions, please don't hesitate to contact us.

We appreciate your interest in My Faithful Assistant and our Virtual Assistant services.  Please visit our Blog My Faithful Assistant for additional information.  We look forward to being of service to you and for any of your business needs.

Testimonials

"Putting you & MFA on my team has been the best decision I've made in my real estate career. Thank you for moving forward and completing my list of projects. You have freed up my time to focus on moving me forward in my career. I truly appreciate you!"
Realtor - Naples, FL


"Thank you for adding an entirely new level of efficiency to my growing business. I continue to be impressed with your ideas and results. You have given me freedom to take time for myself again. And saying Thank You just doesn't seem enough to express how much I appreciate you!"
Realtor - Naples, FL


"I did not realize the value of a good VA. I always thought having a personal assistant who worked beside me was the only way to get things done. Boy, did I get that wrong. You have exceeded my expectations and made a positive impact on me and my business. Great job!"
Realtor-Columbus,OH


"I've always thought that paying someone to do the little things that I can do for myself was a waste of money. I didn't realize that those little things add up to a lot of time consuming projects. And it actually costs me more money to do them myself than to hand them over to you to do. Thank you for an eye opening experience. You have become a tremendous asset to me and to my business as well. First class job!"
Lawn Maintenance Owner - Bonita Springs, FL


"Having you take over our monthly marketing has just been a weight lifted from our shoulders. Thank you for taking the time to organize it, manage it and get it done. We are already seeing positive results from the hard work you are doing. Thank you from all of us!"
Medical Practice Owner - Columbus, OH

"Words cannot express how much I appreciate everyone at MFA. I did not realize there was so much involved in getting my business of the ground. From getting me started on QuickBooks, to helping me get patients to notice me and insurance companies to want to contract with me...it was all so overwhelming to think about and know where to get started. All I really wanted to do was to take care of my patients. Thank You for taking care of the rest and continuing to be with me every step of my growth."
Medical Practice Owner - Fort Myers, FL

"The website work you have done for me is fabulous. I'm not proficient at it whatsoever, which makes it time consuming for me to do. And that ultimately takes time away from me to conduct business. And the Listing Coordinator Services that you provide for me are invaluable. Those tasks of measuring, photos, MLS inputting, brochures, just listed cards, etc. that are so time consuming when you get a new listing...actually took time away from my being able to focus on finding a buyer and networking. I didn't even realize it until you took on the tasks for me. Thank you for helping me and I will continue to use your services."
Realtor - Estero, FL

"Just starting out in my new career, I felt overwhelmed at all choices available for marketing, software and contact management. It has been a Blessing to turn it all over to you to handle. You have done a great job on my advertising layouts and listing brochures. I am really looking forward to the plan that we have already laid out for contact management, email marketing, monthly farming and statistic updates. I just know my business is going to be successful with you as my partner behind the scenes. You are truly a Blessing to me!"
Realtor - Naples, FL

"You have been a tremendous help to me and I want you to know how much I appreciate all of your efforts and all of the hard work you have put into getting me on the right track. I'll continue to use your services. And Thank You for explaining the benefits of mail merging!"
