Testimonials

Humbling praise from our clients

In their own Words

As we continue our mission to steer businesses toward Optopia, we’re grateful to showcase snippets from the heartfelt feedback of those who have already experienced the Optopian effect!

"You solve a problem of scale for me, I can scale up and down with you. There is a whole support structure that sits behind my little business - it just wouldn't be possible to take on contracts of size if it wasn't for the support that you provide. You have to have a look at what you're holding on to that's not helping. And just really be brave and hand that over. What's the worst that can happen?"
Alex Coward
Director | The People Factor
"It really got to the point where the business was changing, evolving... I wanted to scale and it became clear that without things being organised, I was wasting so much time... It got to that point where it was like, if I don't do it now, it's just going to keep going like this and it's just going to get worse. One of the best things about working with Charlie was I could be really open and honest... It felt like such a personalised report that I received, that it really was, she nailed my objectives, she nailed my vision."
Janine Staunton
Director | Lemon Crush
“Without Empire Virtual Support as part of my team, I would be so much more stressed and worried, they just make things happen that I just don't have the time to get to! They are efficient, really know what they are doing and are able to support all the different parts of my business. It's like having my own little team, but on my terms. Can't recommend them highly enough!”
Megan Liston
Director | State Of Work
“An incredible addition to my business. Super efficient, reliable and always thinking ahead.

"I was very fortunate to be recommended Empire Virtual Support’s services to improve and update my existing website. They grasped what I had in mind, and worked collaboratively and swiftly with me to get the changes made I was looking for. I can recommend their skills and professional support."
Kim Billington
Author and Counsellor
"Empire Virtual Support has listened to every step of the way, really understood how I want to run my business, and then just come in at exactly the right level to provide that support. There's a real sense of trust and I can honestly say it just feels really well-supported.

I think the fact that you can have flexible, adjustable admin support that can directly meet your exact needs, whilst also providing a really high-quality level of service that you can trust is really hard to find.

I love how they have been able to grow with me as my business grows. Every time I go to Empire virtual support, they have somebody with skills and expertise, who can help me level up and take things to a different level. And that's just really exciting and incredible flexible support for any small business owner."

Before we got support from Empire Virtual Support, Power of Engineering hit a point where we needed to look at how we drove our sustainability. We noticed a lot of our volunteer time was getting taken up with administrative repetitive work, which wasn't necessarily why they signed up to volunteer. Having the support of the Empire team really enables our volunteers to be able to optimise and focus on what their roles are, when we're looking strategically and how we can make a greater impact to deliver our mission and vision as an organisation. Empire Virtual Support has helped us solve numerous problems that we've had or challenges that we've seen in our organisation. From moving from being reactive to being more proactive, streamlining our processes and standardisation and driving our sustainability. It's really changed how we operate as an organisation. I absolutely would recommend Empire Virtual Support, because I don't know how we survived without them. They are part of the team and they really help us to achieve our organisational goals and objectives.

We’ve been working with the team from Empire Virtual support for over a year now. We initially bought them on to support us in a marketing function, and since then, they have taken on a large number of responsibilities across the business. There’s actually very little in the business now that they are not across, and we get a really great consistency of experience and service, which has been amazing. Our experience is that every time someone is brought in, they’re in the right person for the task. The most valuable part of their support is the fact you’ve got all these skills in one place, it’s like having a dream team working alongside our inhouse team. Having Empire Virtual Support on our team just gives us so much more confidence to scale, we know that we going to be able to fulfil both our growth ambitions and the requirements of our clients. And that a really great place to be in, to not have to stress about delivering and also to do it in a financially sustainable way. From a personal perspective, as CEO and Founder, having Empire on the team has meant I can focus on the things I should be doing in this role; working on our vision, our positioning, continuing to innovate. I can be 100% focused on the future that is ahead of us and the growth ambitions I have for my business.
Fiona Triaca
CEO | Naked Ambition
"Before we engaged Empire Virtual Support, I was finding it really difficult to stay on top of all of the tasks that I needed to do. When I did have time, I was finding myself mentally depleted, and just not able to focus. As a business, we weren't realising our full potential. We had this vision of what we wanted to be, but we weren't taking the right steps or achieving that. So I really needed to find support, so that I could focus on that bigger-picture stuff.

Now, I feel like I don't have to worry, I can pass on tasks to people I trust who are really competent at what they do, really enjoy what they do and are so approachable. Each individual person that I've worked with at Empire has been able to collaborate with me in a way that understands what my business problem is, and provide solutions. I have found a lot more clarity in what it is that I need to focus on and can work on growing my business into the business that I want it to be. It has been an absolute weight off my mind having Empire along for this ride, I really feel like they're part of the team. And they're working towards this common goals with us. I keep finding new things for them to do and it always surprises me that it's just so easy for them to just pick up and run with."

We have worked with Empire Virtual Support for over 2 years now and couldn’t be happier with the results!Empire not only created us a new logo, but took our basic and not very engaging website and transformed it into one that is professional and fun. The feedback from both our clients and staff has been overwhelmingly positive. We’ve noticed an increase in inquiries since the updates were made. Working with the team was a breeze; they understood exactly what we needed and spoke in simple terms that made the entire process hassle-free.We have also worked with Empire to improve our operations seeking guidance and implementation support to optimise our tech stack. Beyond this, the support we’ve received for administration has truly lightened the load for us as a small business.More recently, the Empire has supported us with social media content and ads with great results.Overall, Empire Virtual Support has made a significant positive impact on our business. We highly recommend their services to anyone looking to upgrade business processes or marketing!

Having a team of Australian-based administration, providing one-on-one support for me, has been essential. Without Empire Virtual Support, there’s no way I could have mobilised Live Work Cancer.Empire Virtual Support has brought the capability to ensure I can deliver my services to my customers. It’s been a really great pleasure to work with Charlie and her team.Working with Charlie and the team has provided a mechanism for me to look after myself. My well-being and self-care are absolutely essential for me to be able to do the work I do.With Empire’s support, I’ve been able to work at a pace three to four times more than if I was doing it myself. I would have achieved less than 30% of what I’ve been able to do in partnership with Charlie and the team.Empire’s team brings a great suite of tools and technology to ensure I’ve got access to project statuses and deliverables. They research and find the best technology that aligns with my business needs.I just want to say thank you again for everything you do. It is a lonely space, and having this support behind me, with me, through me, is an amazing experience.What keeps me going is knowing I can do stuff, even when it’s hard. Having all my eggs in the basket of direct selling into corporate and government can be disappointing, but Empire’s support keeps me motivated.

We highly recommend Empire Support to any business owner, Empire Support has set us up for future success. We know we can eventually sell our business or get it valued without anyone negotiating down because we have all the right systems in place but for now with the SOPs and VAs provided by Empire Support, we no longer need to worry about day-to-day operations. Everything is managed efficiently, and this has taken immense pressure off us. Give it a go, you won’t look back, we have the perfect work, life balance that makes us love our business again. Thanks to all the team at Empire Virtual Support.
Response from the owner: Oh thanks so much Catherine, we are so happy to play a small part of EIR’s future growth and success :)

For me, the value of working with Empire Virtual Support is that I am a lot less stressed. I can tell them what I want, and they make it happen. It’s wonderful because it’s a fraction of the price I would be paying if I had a full time employee. We’ve got a great relationship and I love that they’ve been able to do everything I have ever asked them to do. Working with Empire Virtual Support has helped me bring my business to another level!
Response from the owner: Thanks Stella, look forward to continuing to work together :)

Rosie G.
Charlie has provided administrative support to my solo private practice for most of the past year – it has been such a pleasure to work with someone so switched on, intuitive and respectful. She has taken the time to get to know my business and set up effective communication systems. She works independently yet checks in with me and asks questions when needed. Highly recommend Empire Virtual Support .
Response from the owner: Thanks Rosie, a pleasure to be part of your team :)
