Event planning is a fast-paced and highly detailed industry. Coordinating multiple suppliers, managing guest lists, keeping track of schedules, and ensuring every detail aligns perfectly can quickly become overwhelming – especially when you’re running an independent event planning business.
We offer dedicated support to take on the behind-the-scenes workload, allowing you to focus on delivering memorable events. Whether you need assistance with venue research, supplier coordination, contract management, or guest communications, we handle the logistical details so you can concentrate on bringing your creative vision to life.
Our goal is to keep your business running smoothly while you focus on what you do best – creating exceptional event experiences.
Beyond event-specific tasks, we also provide general business support, from managing client inquiries to keeping track of invoices and schedules.
If you’re ready to reduce stress, increase efficiency, and free up more time for your clients, we’re here to help. Book a call today to find out how we can support your event management business.
Having Light Touch on board has shown me the true value that can be found in support assistants. Kelly’s broad range of skills and experiences means that nothing is too much. She can adapt and turn her hand to all our needs and requirements. It helps that she is a lovely person too, and so easy to get along with. Kelly is the complete package.
A support specialist should be a natural extension of your business. We take on a multitude of tasks, that frees you up to do what you do best and what you enjoy most. We can help with a range of general tasks including admin, bookkeeping, general marketing and support customer services.
We also offer specialist help for independent short-let property managerss and event managers and planners.
The cost of using a support specialist often depends on the type and number of hours of support you require.
Our Retainer Packages start at 10+ hours per month. Hours are invoiced and due for payment upfront. This guarantees your time each month. You can find out more about our rates on our Prices page.
The joys of modern technology allows us to work with you remotely very effectively.
For example, you do not have share all of your login details and yet we are able to access many different accounts, systems and software on your behalf, using an application LastPass.
We can also use cloud-based filing systems like DropBox, OneDrive and Google Drive to share documents and organise your files.
Using a support specialist can work really well, without ever having to be in the same room!
A support specialist can be a great ‘first step’ if you are expanding and growing but do not feel ready to take on an employee. We work in a freelance capacity, so you don’t pay for breaks, sick days, annual leave or any other costs associated with having employees.
A support specialist is also incredibly cost effective. Pay only for the time taken to do certain tasks, and have work handed back, complete, by the deadline agreed.
Hiring a support specialist means you can access skills you do not have and hand over tasks you no longer wish to do or have time for.
It can be hard deciding what it is you want help with from a VA. Take a look at our admin, event management and travel planning service pages to learn more about the range of support we offer.
Then, consider what:
You don’t have to do this alone.
We are happy to discuss your business and work out who and how we can best support you. Book a call.
Event management and planning can be overwhelming given the number of tasks involved with running an excellent event, whilst also running your own business and juggling multiple roles. But you don’t have to do it alone.
Imagine the difference we could make.
