  • "Olivia is wonderful! The timing of us meeting has worked out so well for her help with these sessions. Olivia has given me some great guidance re: social media. She makes it easy and digestible. A lot of people don’t know how or why to use things like Instagram (and the rest). All of the work that you and Olivia do help me and other business owners to free up our time so we can grow our businesses."

Olivia came right to my business in Ottawa to make sure she understood how my business functioned and was able to start helping right away. She has made more than one visit to Ottawa and also has been able to support me from a distance. I highly recommend The Virtual Alternative to anyone who needs help but does not know where to start."
