"Working with Jean and PA 2 Go has
been my first foray into using a virtual administration service. The
experience has been a total delight, so simple, and Jean's ability
to pre-empt my very thinking was nothing short of a miracle.
Martz Witty outgoing
President, National
Speakers Association of New Zealand
"I have found Jean to be
thoroughly efficient and professional in her approach. As well as
making helpful suggestions she can be relied upon to turn things
around with respect to timelines." Jasbindar Singh SQ Executive Management
Consultancy Ltd
"I am a busy person juggling a
full-time career and a business. Jean has been a great help with
managing the customer services component of my business. Whenever I
ask Jean for help, I know that it will be done and in the way that I
have asked. Jean also provides me meticulous notes so that I am kept
abreast of everything. There are also times when Jean is "one step
ahead of me". Things are taken care of without me even asking."
Ashley Wong Operations Manager,
Wall Treats
Ltd
"Jean has been working with me as
a 'virtual PA' for the last two years and the combination of her
professionalism, knowledge and commitment is outstanding. She has
consistently turned the 'ordinary into the extraordinary'. My
business demands the highest level of presentation and clarity and
Jean's experience, eye for detail, look and style ensures that my
customers experience the 'wow factor'. Working from a distance and on a virtual level has
proved to be an efficient use of time and an easy process due to
Jean's ability to understand the project at hand and to make
pertinent recommendations. I have often said to Jean 'you have read
my needs perfectly'. It makes me wonder how I ever managed
without her!" Marlen Smith
Consultant, Marketing WRX Ltd
"It would be hard to find a more
organised and responsible person to help run your business; she
looks after the smallest details and manages the large. You are in
safe hands with Jean" Bill James
Founder, Inspired

systems and data that needs to be expertly handled for my business
and other work I have engaged her for. Fantastic and highly
recommend her to colleagues. She's a gem when I need her."

can safely be entrusted with any administrative work and be trusted
to do it professionally and quickly - no job is too large or too
small for her." Ann Andrews
Managing Director, Teams from Woe
To Go
"Jean always gives 110% to her
clients. Her attention to detail cannot be questioned, she is fast
and efficient. I have seen Jean work magic with admin work for our
ConnectHers Network, also in Jean's role at National Speakers,
Auckland Executive to name a few." Julie Shattock Manager, Shattock Communications and
Research Ltd
"Jean is a delightful, utterly
reliable and thoroughly professional person. I do enjoy sharing
various endeavours with her." Clive Littin Director, Clive Littin Associates
Ltd
"I met Jean through a
colleague and as a small publishing company we have found her
services invaluable. Any time we have a work overload she has been
able to turn her hand to a variety of administrative tasks at very
short notice and for a very cost effective fee. Her computer skills
are excellent and she has also sorted out knotty document problems
for us at the drop of hat. We'd happily recommend her services."
Annie Gray Publisher, Tourism Business
Magazine
"As a growing business operator it
is important to keep overheads low yet project an image of success
and a multi person team. Jean at PA2Go is the perfect solution. Not
only does Jean enhance my company image but with her multitude of
skills I can utilise her for a number of different roles as we
develop. Over and above that Jean is as
supportive and enthusiastic about my business as I am and that is
simply extraordinary added value. I am grateful to have her as a
member of our team at womenz.co.nz" Katrina Winn Director, NZ Women Ltd
"Jean has been an invaluable asset
to the Auckland Executive Club. As the club has grown, it has been
essential to have someone as capable as Jean to take full
responsibility for all administrative and secretarial activities.
Jean analysed all activities relating to the club, collated and
summarised procedures, and presented a workable "go-forward" plan,
that we can all relate to. Jean's
standard of professionalism and excellence is highly endorsed by all
the committee. Her range of skills and positive attitude with any
task given, is exceptional." Lynne Arminshaw Past President, The Auckland
Executive Club
"For the last two years Jean has
been managing and overseeing all my various investment and business
back office administration; from receiving mail and emails to
liaising with key suppliers, agencies and my other professional
contractors. I am able to leave all these matters to Jean confident
in the knowledge that if there is an issue or a problem she will
sort it out along with reporting to me on key areas she feels I
should be notified of. I cannot stress
enough how much Jean's dedication, reliability, and efficiency frees
me up to concentrate on building my businesses and investments. It
gives me great peace of mind knowing that while I am driving the
business forward Jean is always actively minding the shop. She is an
invaluable part of my team" John
Bedggood Director, Rochelle Services Ltd
"With our business growing so fast
and all our resources focused on growing the business our admin had
started to get way behind and we really didn't know where to start!!
Very quickly Jean sorted out all the back
log of our accounts as well as fine tuning and updating our admin
systems so that we could then begin the process of hiring a
permanent part time administrator. With her knowledge of our
business and how we work along with her experience and background in
sole charge administration Jean was also able to assist us in
vetting candidates and interviewing prospects, helping us to find
the perfect person to run the office. We
can't thank Jean enough for her assistance, advise and input which
has given us peace of mind and confidence going forward with our
business plan." Caroline
Pugh Director, TP Plumbing
"When I needed to have some
important documentation created, Jean was totally onto it. Within a
day she had transcribed, from my rough notes, all my requirements
into the correct and professional format needed. Not only is Jean a
fast and efficient PA, she has a huge resource of business
experience and computer knowledge. Jean
now manages my website processing all enquiries, orders and product
shipments; as well as all the back-end website administration and my
on-line advertising campaigns. I wish I had contacted her
sooner!" Grant Jackson The Cat Door
Company
"Jean you are fantastic, not only
do you meet all my last minute deadlines you manage to convert my
dictated recipes into language that the home cook can relate to, you
are truly indispensable." Simon Gault Chef, Restaurateur, Importer and
Author
"In the three weeks Jean has been
helping me two mornings a week, she's been more like a fairy
godmother than a PA. She's proven very competent, with good computer
skills and the ability to take in the important points quickly and
run with a job with minimal supervision, often offering suggestions
for improved systems (but accepting a preference to do it my way
when applicable). Jean is making a real and positive contribution to
our organisation." Heather
Douglas Managing Director, Home Business New Zealand Ltd, publishers
of HomebizBuzz
"I find the contract facility that
you offer suits my type of business where your range of skills are
required regularly. Engaging your services is quite different from
employing staff and I much prefer this type of relationship.
You have a pleasant personality,
excellent skills and a can do attitude which I admire in people."
Don Good Managing Director, W S Medical
Ltd
"For the past 18 months Jean has
been assisting both myself and members of my team across a broad and
diverse range of projects and tasks. It has been invaluable to have
a specialised professional such as Jean ready and available to act
when we need her; often at short notice and after hours. Jean is
most definitely a valued asset of the Raynish Group" Jenni Raynish Chief Executive, Raynish +
Partners
