Whatever your business, I make it MY business too. I am passionate about details, deadlines, and delivering real resultsfast. Here is what satisfied clients say about working with Capital Virtual Assistance.
From chaos to calm is how I would describe my experience having Geri Lafferty as my virtual assistant. I moved my law practice to a home office in July 2001, and spent the next three and a half years trying to find someone competent to help me, off site, with day-to-day administrative tasks and specialized projects. I seemed destined to experience the aggravation of having incompetent help, as well as the frustration and loss of productivity associated with interviewing and hiring assistants over and over again.
I needed a highly skilled assistant, even though I did not have enough work to keep someone busy full time. I needed someone intelligent enough to handle fairly complicated assignments, yet much of my work is detail oriented and routine. I also demand a high level of competence and commitment from those who work for me, even if the work is sometimes boring. And I am simply too busy to provide much "hand holding" or training, and I need someone who can problem-solve and work independently.
With Geri, I have finally found the right set of technological, administrative and professional skills to complement my practice and my work style. I have finally gotten around to those pesky long-term projects that never seemed to get done. I no longer waste time returning routine phone calls, opening files or responding to routine correspondence. I can focus on what I am trained to do best and what I am best paid to doperforming legal serviceswhile Geri keeps the ship running smoothly behind the scenes. Geri is efficient, intelligent and reliable. She gets the work done quickly, and it gets done right the first time. I would highly recommend Geri to any professional or small business owner who needs "virtual" help on a flexible basis.

Capital Virtual Assistance has been a great addition to the BossaNova team. Before, our executive consultants were spending far too much time on administrative tasks. Now, thanks to Geri's organization skills, we have more time to devote to our clients. We're putting administrative processes in place that make our back office operations run more smoothly, presenting a much more professional image with Geri as a key 'front person' on important administrative matters, and generally spending more time focused on strategic issues that directly impact our profitability and growth. And as an added bonus, Geri is fun to work with!

My experience with Geri of Capitalva.com is nothing short of excellent! Geri is truly a partner in my business. The experience and wisdom that Geri provides is unequaled. She is reliable, prompt, and accurate. She represents me well to my clients. Within three weeks of working successfully with Geri, I referred three clients to CapitaVA.com, and they all agree that Geri excels as virtual assistance.

Geri has a genuine generosity and a heart for service. She combines technology and heart as she will go 110% in her desire to see her clients succeed. A bonus of working with Geri is that she is a natural at connecting people - with her broad network she will generally have someone to whom she can refer you for a need that is outside her area of expertise. She's a gem!

Working with Geri has made my life so much easier. Before we started working together, I was spending too much time scheduling and confirming appointments. Now, Geri does that for me in a very professional manner. This has allowed me to significantly increase my time to market my business and to actually work on building my business. I'd be happy to talk more about working with Geri--feel free to contact me at kerrie@halmiperformance.com.

I am a psychotherapist with a busy private practice, and during the day have only ten minutes of personal time between appointments. I also own a small business. With my hectic schedule, personal details can really pile uplike scheduling a vacation.
All I had to do was call my virtual assistant. I explained to Geri the type of vacation I wanted relaxing, with a beautiful setting and an eco-spiritual-resort atmosphere. I gave her the dates, and before I could blink, she had found the absolutely perfect place, made the transportation reservations, and sent me links with all information I would need. Geri even scoped out local activities she thought I might enjoyincluding a private swim with dolphins. One phone call. No mistakes. Everything was handled.
Geri is worth every penny and I count on her in many ways.
She handles my car problems, my credit card issues, shopping for gifts, and researching insurance questions. When I needed to make a change to my phone service, Geri saved me endless time (and preserved my sanity!) by taking care of everything for me.
Geri is the best you'll ever work withfast, efficient, and professional. I never have to sweat the details, because with Geri, things are done well and done rightthe first time.
Finally, I have found a solution to having my personal life run as smoothly as my business.

Like most business owners, I have many demands on my time, and usually need to be in three places at once. When I found myself with a HUGE pile of business receipts that needed to be compiled for taxes, I knew whom to call. Geri saved the day, and made the laborious task disappear! I just packed up my file and popped it into the mail.
Soon after, the completed jobincluding a detailed, easy-to-read spreadsheetmagically appeared at my office. Geri is quick, accurate, and thoughtful, and it is really great to be able to delegate my most daunting work to someone I can trust.
Geri is more than an assistant, virtual or otherwiseshe becomes a true partner in your business, and you'll wonder what you ever did without her.
