Kate Bacon - Virtual Assistant

"Kate was a great help to me last summer when I had lots of stuff to organise for my coaching and psychotherapy practices. In particular, she helped me get my accounts in shape for the previous tax year, which was a bit of a task, but she brought order to the situation. Kate also checked out a series of possible venues for me when I was looking for new rooms in Central London from which to practice, presenting me with a write-up of places she'd seen with photos she'd taken of them, and a recommendation of the place she thought seemed best.

I experienced Kate as bright and responsible. She certainly used lots of creativity and initiative, and I always felt that I could trust her implicitly to do the right thing. When you're busy and admin is not a strength, or you just need extra support, having Kate take something off you and knowing that it'll be dealt with, without your having to worry about it, is incredibly helpful. Above all she's fun and good to do business with! I recommend her highly."

Christine Livingston
Coach and Psychotherapist

Kate's services have proved invaluable to me during the last year; she is a great asset and helps to ensure the smooth running of my business on a daily basis.

As a trained coach herself, Kate brings a level of knowledge and understanding of the profession to her work that greatly enhances her services as a virtual assistant.

Kate is very professional; she is efficient, organised, and proactive in managing my diary and has a great manner when dealing with my clients. Kate is also friendly, approachable and has a good sense of humour; I enjoy working with her.

Working with Kate Bacon to help us find a venue for our coaching conference in London was invaluable. She saved us a whole load of leg-work and made the whole process straight-forward. All we had to do was give her a list of our requirements, and she set to work! She produced a short-list of venues, and arranged all the appointments for us to check them out, so all we had to do was go to London once and see a range of options.

Kate also brings an inside understanding of the coaching profession, which makes her help even more valuable

Kate has proved to be enthusiastic, proactive, well-organised and effective in her role of handling application enquiries for Coaching Development Ltd. I have found her easy to work with, and the spontaneous feedback I have received about her is very positive. She likes dealing with people, and callers have clearly enjoyed ‘meeting' her on the phone – the feedback is that she is helpful, clear and genuine in her wish to assist those who call. She projects an enthusiastic personal approach, which is coupled with good listening skills and an absence of any hype or falseness. Her personal honesty and wish to contribute are clear to see, and to hear. These qualities are very important to us, as she is our first point of contact for most enquiries about our coach training programmes.
