We run a small business and as we grew we started looking at employing someone to help with our admin. The problem of course with hiring another staff member is the financial risk of looking after someone and of course keeping them busy. Then we found Blustring, Stacey did not just provide a service she became a valuable part of our company. Blustring is professional at all times and has given us the freedom to focus on growing our business further rather than just being bogged down with our admin. We have been happy client of Blustring since March 2018 and have no plans to move our admin to anywhere else.
Thank you Blustring --WNS Waterproofing and Roof Repairs.
Being self-employed is wonderful but you soon realise how much support you need to make your business a success. Stacey (BlueString) is the perfect solution. It is wonderful to be able to customise the package so that I have got the exact support I need. Stacey is efficient, warm, reliable and professional in all her interactions. I highly recommend Stacey.

Stacey has worked with Optimal for a number of years, both as an employee and in recent years, as a business owner providing a virtual assistant service to us. Over the years, Stacey has been dependable, reliable and a pleasure to work with. She takes the pressure off me in so many ways – by delivering to my clients, and by understanding my business and anticipating future needs. I can really count on Stacey to get things done, which frees me up to spend more time on growing my business. Stacey will go out of her way to deliver, has a great relationship with my clients and is definitely my go-to person. She shows attention to detail, but also understands the bigger picture. She has become an integral part of our business and a trusted partner.

Handi Maintenance have had the pleasure of doing Business with Blue string VA for just over a year now.
As a Maintenance company , it was a challenge to find ways which allow us to maximize our time. The administrative component of the business was hindering the ability to scale up and that is what got us interested in hiring a VA. Time away from clients equals less profits coming in. Blue string VA’s processes have been seamless. Blue String VA follows up with all our clients on quotes, payments and all the necessary documentation. Scheduling of works has also become such a seamless process. The multiple skill-sets that Blue String VA have to offer has not only expanded our business but assisted in positive growth. Blue string VA continue to perform all tasks that are extremely vital to our business. Thank you for all your hard work and dedication to our Team
Handi Maintenance
I've always resisted employing a virtual assistant, because I figured I can do it myself at no cost. But there was a particular piece of admin that I had a block about (it involved calling Telkom). I was stuck and a little bit embarrassed to ask for help. She sorted everything out in double quick time and gave me feedback every step of the way. It took Stacey a day or two to accomplish what I had been putting off for over 18 months. Now, if I need something, she's the first person I call. It's sent my productivity through the roof and reduced my stress and anxiety.
Stacey is uplifting to work with. She's positive and gets the job done quickly. Most important, she's just as happy to do the silly or trivial things as she is doing the weighty and more complex project management she's so good at. Thank you again.
