I’m Julia of Raspberry Business Support and I provide practical admin support and guidance to business owners and their teams. 

I specialise in sales and operational admin support.  Taking over your back office sales and operations processes so you get on with growing your business.  Once an order has been placed or a service/subscription signed up for  I will take over, making sure contracts are in place, liaising with clients and suppliers, arranging deliveries if needed (whether that be physically or electronically) and generally keeping your clients happy.   I will also take care of invoicing, chasing payment and daily bookkeeping.

For those businesses that are just starting out or already have a team in place but lack systems and processes, I work with you to set the solid foundations for running yourbusiness, smoothing out any glitches and making sure you have systems in place that not only adhere to the basic requirements of running a business but also enable growth.  I pay particular attention to making sure you have the correct documentation in place to protect their business and make sure  you are set up to keep HMRC happy too.

I also have an additional skill not many VAs can offer.  Having previously worked in the food industry for 25+ years, I gained many years of experience in exporting all over the world.   I can offer support in 3 key areas:

• Exploring export options for businesses looking to start exporting but don’t know where to begin. 
• Providing advice and support for businesses in the early days of exporting or who are already exporting and want to expand their horizons. 
• Practical documentation support for businesses already exporting but not ready to take on an employee yet, or who need holiday cover when their export support staff are on holiday.
