Bursledon Barkers - Dog Walking

10/09/2021

We are running low on newspapers! If you have some old newspapers that we could use, please could you drop them into us. Thank you very much! 🥰

This isn’t something we like to talk about, but we want to make you aware of how to be vigilant and avoid a situation like this ever happening to you.

Ensure Safety: 52% of stolen dogs are from gardens. Secure your property & garden, don't leave your dogs tied up unattended outside shops.

Keep Visible: Keep your dog in sight & train an emergency recall queue / return to you call. If walking at night get your dog a safety collar light or fluorescent collar.

Report: Report any dog theft or attempted dog theft to the police immediately.

Be cautious: Take care letting anyone unknown to you pet your dog or approach your dog. Carry a whistle to alert people of danger if you feel uncomfortable & always take a mobile phone with you if possible.

Microchip: It is a legal obligation to microchip your dog. It is equally as important to keep your contact details up to date.

Stay safe and get in touch if you have any concerns or questions.

Good morning from sunny Southampton.

Thank you Hayley Hudson of Hudson Admin Support for this fantastic testimonial. I love working for you and I have learnt so much which means I can streamline what I do for my other clients.
You, my lovely, are the dog danglies 😁

Your choice ...

Do you choose to do it all yourself and get bogged down with things you hate doing?
Or do you choose to take a load off and outsource?

Random fact ...

I walk my dogs twice daily, at least 1 hour each time.
The average person walks 3/4 miles per hour.
That means I walk over 42 miles per week!
No wonder I have to replace my boots every six months, that's way over 1000miles those boots walk.

What is your random fact?

It has been a difficult few days for me.

I had to have one of my dogs put to sleep 😪. She was nearly 15 and had been unwell for a while, and was getting worse by the day.
For her, I know it was the right decision. For me, the guilt eats away at me - I'm not God and I don't like playing that role. I hate feeling sorry for myself too.
The other 2 dogs keep looking for her and that's heart-breaking.

I've had 3 days now, where I have achieved nothing. Today I get my head back in the game 🤞 but I still feel beat up and worn out.

Lots of people are feeling the same for a variety of reasons. Just get through today, tomorrow will be a little brighter.

Ages ago, my first client told me his kids hate me because he had gone from being an absent father to an 'in your face' father. This happened before I even set Noble Admin Solutions up. He needed some help, I needed some pocket-money.

Recently another client mentioned that he loves that he can get on with what he does best because he doesn't have to worry about the 'mundane' stuff getting done, because he has me.

I don't mind that he thinks of my job as mundane 😂. As long as I'm adding value, he can say what he likes (within reason 🤨).

Can I add value to your business by doing your mundane tasks?

New Year, new you ?

Do you intend to work harder, or to work smarter?

Just remember that you are not alone!
Yes self-assessments are due.
Yes the bills kept coming in over the 'holidays'.
NO you do NOT have to do it all yourself.

Thank you Hudson Admin Support for my gift.

Apanthropy - An aversion to human company; love of solitude.

Nice word, describes me perfectly 😂. Thank you Suzy Dent, Lexicographer, from Countdown.

I have always thought I was a bit odd feeling this way, but this year has been an eye-opener, and I now think I am quite normal.
It really surprises me, when attending online networking events, how many people admit that they would rather meet on-line than face to face!
I couldn't do face to face. It would be pointless. I wouldn't be promoting my business, I would be hiding in a corner feeling self-conscious.
I have learnt more about other people in 2020 than in any other year. This pandemic has enabled people to open up, say it as it is, not spout bs that they think you want to hear. Its refreshing.

My name is Zara Noble and I am an apanthropist 😁. What's your affliction?

Does it feel like Christmas yet?

Happy Christmas you lovely peeps

Time to chill and put up your feet

Be together and have family time

Wait for Santa, hear the sleigh bells chime

Gifts for the kids to unwrap by the tree

Sherry for mum, after her tea

Turkey in the oven golden brown

Happy smiles, no sign of a frown

Trifle for pud covered in cream

Tree lights twinkling on full beam

A very Happy Christmas to all in your nest

Noble Admin Solutions Wishes you the best.

Happy Friday you beautiful humans 😀.

If you have to work this weekend, only do the things that only you can do.

03/12/2020

Yuck out there today!

I hope whatever work you are doing is indoors.

Noble Admin Solutions hasn't been trading for all that long, and I must admit that there have been times when I have felt completely out of my depth.

Each new client has different needs, different expectations of what I can do for them. The beginning of every working relationship is scary - worrying that I won't be able to do what is required - communication is key. Its important to remember that you, the client, need to be clear about what you need.

I haven't failed yet though! I learn on daily basis.

This is so different from working for someone else where the processes are set in stone. Now I create the processes to suit the individual needs. For a control freak like me, this is perfect 😀.

If you need someone to control your processes, manage your admin, keep your books - I won't fail you.

The moon this morning was stunning!

What a gorgeous start to the day, hopefully it remains that way.

Yesterday I had no internet - thank you VM 😖. This meant I got no work done and Monday is my busiest day! So I will be playing catch-up for the rest of the week.

Its been a busy few weeks for Noble Admin Solutions which is great.
I've also taken on more studies - at my age!!! So Level 4 AAT, bring it on, but be kind to my old brain.

I look forward to my next challenge - are you it?

Self-Assessments - just saying.

25/11/2020

I cant cope, says the man on the phone
So flipping busy, I know I shouldn’t moan
But my admin has gotten out of hand
Feels like I’m wading through sinking sand
I spend my nights trying to catch up
Never seeing family or the new pup
I even forgot to do a quote!
Need help to steady this rocky boat

Ok, I say, let’s see if I can assist
What tasks do you hate – give me a list
I can sort your books, submit your vat
Typing, filing, all admin in fact
I’ll manage your diary and email account
You’ll get your quotes done, be in no doubt
Work/life balance I’ll help you find
My lifelong offer is peace of mind

Tree huggers, eco-warriors and fans of life on earth ...

Virtual Assistants are doing their bit to protect the planet, we use practically no paper & we don't use fuel to travel to work.

I had to write something to go with todays photo 🤣.

Bootiful innit - my photo, my opinion.

Its a gorgeous day here in Hampshire, luckily my desk is in front of the window.

Have a good one peeps. And remember, if you need any Admin or Bookkeeping help, I am sitting in front of my window waiting to help you.

Happy Friday!

Here's to all of us who made it through another week of faking adulthood.

Don't work all weekend 😤, there's beautiful things out there to explore.

Aaah the illusive round-2it.

Ring any bells? That very rare element that you often sigh wistfully about.

We all have ‘those’ tasks, they have to be done, we know that at some point someone will ask about them, but they're low priority compared to everything else.

Can I be of assistance?

Noble Admin Solutions - my aim is to make your life easier, simple as that. While I take care of your admin & bookkeeping, you get out there and grow your business, impress your customers, look after your family.

My name is Zara Noble, I’m no spring chicken, which means I have years of experience in Admin. I work from home in Bursledon, Southampton, have a lovely office, good internet speed etc. I’m a qualified bookkeeper & virtual administrator. You don’t employ me, so you don’t have all the faff and responsibility.

Write down a quick list of things you hate doing, or don't get time to do.

There are many businesses out there that started off as small and simple. Sole traders, small partnerships, small Ltd companies.
Through hard work, perseverance, providing a great service and customer referrals, they are growing rapidly.
Awesome!
The downside to this success is that you might start to feel overwhelmed by it. There’s so much more to think about. Keeping all those ducks in a row.
The enquiries that need answering, the appointments you need to get to, the quotes you need to send out, ordering supplies, the invoicing, payments, VAT – more and more…aaaargh!
It grows until it seems insurmountable. Just looking at it causes anxiety. The thought of tackling it induces palpitations.
Don’t let it get to this stage. It will not go away by itself! Ask for help. I love admin and bookkeeping.
I want to be part of your business and help you celebrate your success.

This is a lot of bull!

Do you have a bullsh*t filter?

I didn't seem to have one at first. I would take everyone at face value because I couldn't, and still don't see any reason or point in not being honest.

Of course potential clients will shop around, they would be foolish not to.
I might not be your cup of tea, and that's fine too.

But small businesses, especially new starters pin their hopes on what leads tell them.

Now that I'm a bit more established and secure, I feel confident asking for the work and pinning it down.

Do you feel awkward saying no?
Do you tell people what you think they want to hear?
