What People Are Saying about Ducks In A Row
"Clare has been an absolute God send for my business. She is intelligent, thoughtful and pro-active. She's happy to work with the way I work and that adaptability is really key. So for example, since I vocally process things, it's really helpful that she is great at taking my stream of consciousness about what I need to do next and making it into actionable tasks which helps keep me on target. I'm able to delegate tasks to her and the team with confidence that they'll be done efficiently and professionally, and the results speak for themselves.
-Justine de Mierre, So what’s the story?
Having two young children and running a business is extremely hard. I found myself having less and less time with my family and being overwhelmed with the amount of work I had to do. I was unsure if a virtual assistant would work so I had a Zoom call with Clare so I could ask all of the questions I needed answered. Clare quickly put my mind at rest by showing me how flexible and experienced she and her team are. I find the weekly Zoom calls and constant communication extremely helpful. Straight away I noticed a huge shift in my workload as Ducks In A Row schedules and writes emails, designs advertising campaigns, and posts on social media for me. It was incredibly important that social media was kept to a personal level without the blanket templates some VA's use. I now have much more time with my family, I can channel my admin time elsewhere and I’ve been able to grow my own team. Thanks, Clare!

"Clare spent several months working for us at Cambridge & Counties Bank assisting us with implementing our Risk & Control Self Assessment programme. She started out with general support, but by the time her contract had finished, she was proficient in process mapping Banking operational processes, and I had received positive feedback on her professionalism and conduct from many areas of the business in which she had worked."
-Stuart Mcclure, Head of Operational Risk, Cambridge & Counties Bank.
“Sometimes when we’re busy working for other people, the jobs on our own To-Do list just never seem to get done! So I asked Clare to help me with some of mine – and she made it all so easy I wish I’d asked her earlier. Clare worked flexibly around my capacity and moved things along at a pace that worked for me but also got the job done. Feels so good to be able to tick tasks off the list. Definitely worth asking for help with those jobs that just aren’t getting done – much more cost-effective too!”
— Liz Moss, Director, Value & Worth Consulting

Clare brings a human touch to her work that is truly unique. From our first interaction, Clare took the time to understand my needs and get to know me as a person.

She has a talent for breaking down complex tasks into smaller, more manageable steps, which has been invaluable to me as I work to achieve my goals. With her support, I feel confident that I can tackle even the most daunting of tasks.
Beyond her exceptional organisational skills, Clare is simply a pleasure to work with. She is always professional, responsive, and reliable. I feel that she truly has my back and is invested in my success. In short, I cannot recommend Clare highly enough. If you are looking for business support with a human touch, look no further than Clare.”
