50 | Southern Enterprise Awards 2022 Aiding time-poor female entrepreneurs is Emma Read VA & Associates’ speciality. The Cambridgeshire-based company – which was established in 2016 – meticulously matches its clients with some of the UK’s best Virtual Assistants. Such Virtual Assistants work in close connection with the company’s founder and namesake, Emma Read, to ensure efficacy and, of course, the satisfaction of their clients.

They strive to build a reputation for being indispensable, and further, to offer the best possible remote business support service for small businesses – and particularly women in business - nationwide. Emma Read, the company’s founder, is known as ‘The VA Matchmaker’, as she personally connects clients with the right Virtual Assistant for their needs. Matches are based not only on the skills and experience of the assistant but also on the personality, values, and preferred working styles of the client. Clients also have the peace of mind that every Virtual Assistant they are introduced to has gone through a rigorous vetting process and that excellent references have been received from previous clients or employers. From traditional Executive Assistants to Digital Marketing Assistants and Virtual Assistants who specialise in working with neurodiverse clients, Emma Read VA & Associates helps its clients find the specific talent they need. If the client’s needs change at any point, the company makes it easy to hire additional Virtual Assistants and sees itself as a bolt-on remote team that is there to support the client on every step of their business journey. It is clear that this approach has worked for the company; it boasts dozens of five-star reviews and glowing testimonies from clients. For example, in a recent review, Nutrition Scientist and Health Coach Sophie Tully enthuses: “Emma matched me with three potential VAs and gave me good insight into each of their skill sets. She also provided a specific recommendation for who she felt would be best to support me, which was really helpful. The speed and efficiency with which everything gets dealt with and responded to by Emma and my VA is great. I would definitely recommend Emma and her business.” The demand for Virtual Assistant services has grown exponentially over the past few years, especially in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic, when many businesses became remote. The transition towards digitisation meant that many businesses have become more comfortable with outsourcing workers and support, resulting in an influx of customers for Emma Read VA & Associates. They offer a balanced, remote, working structure for their Virtual Assistants, and as freelancers who run their own VA businesses, their Virtual Assistants are able to work in a way that suits their lifestyle. They are also surrounded by a network of other VAs, including Emma, who offer a strong sense of camaraderie and support. The future of Emma Read VA & Associates will see it continue down this path, with ambitious Jul22540 Most Outstanding Virtual Assistant Company 2022 plans to increase the wealth of talent it can offer its clients by greatly expanding its Virtual Assistant directory to meet demand.
