Welcome to Ladd Virtual Services…
a.k.a Sophie!

Hi! I’m your personal virtual wizard helping you dispell the worry around completing the tasks you don’t have time for.

Why hire a virtual assistant?

It’s really different, and more beneficial than a traditional PA.

VA

With a virtual assistant, you are choosing the amount of hours you need help with. This could be as little as two hours a month.

A VA can do a specific set of tasks for you, and you know they are an expert in those tasks. If there are things you need help with that aren’t listed on my site, I may still be able to help – even if that’s pointing you in the direction of someone else who can.

You pay me just one fee each month.

I can work from anywhere, so you aren’t limited to talent in your local area, and you don’t need to provide me with an office space.

PA


A personal assistant will expect full or part-time hours – let’s not forget the paid lunch break! You may not need that level of support (who wants to be scrambling to find work for their employee to keep them busy?).

With a PA, you’re paying into their pension, for an office space for them, their laptop, their holiday and sick pay- you get the gist!

A PA isn’t so specialised, therefore is not as much of an expert.

What Services I’m Providing

Podcast production

With my experience with audio journalism (see my about section), I have done a bit of everything: live show production, audio editing, scripting and structuring, to name a few. For your podcast, I could support you with guest management, audio editing, show note creation and transcription. This allows you to focus on engaging, creative and thought-provoking content that can build on your existing business or brand.

General Admin​

If you need a couple of hours a week of email, diary or general life management, I can help. Or perhaps you want help booking up work trips or planning holidays, or simple data entry. Whatever your admin needs, I can be there to make life easier. Let me support your business so you can work on scaling it.

Social media content creation

I can help you make eye-catching Tiktoks, Reels, or still graphics. You can use the graphics on social media, or maybe you will need them for an all-important presentation. You’ll post them and look after scheduling your social media content, but I can help you in making it. It really helps to have them ready-made to go.
