Reviews
JoAnn is an excellent fit for managing our HOA Board Minutes. She is professional, responds promptly to questions , and proactively asks questions of her own to help us shape the HOA structure we're aiming for.
Jo was a pleasure to talk with and is very capable at her job. I would highly recommend her
She was very attentive to what I asked her to do and very intelligent and came up with her own ideas and suggestions which were valuable.
I've been working with Joann for 18 months and WOW--she has been a HUGE help. I run a company of 150 and she acts as my Exec Asst. She's tactful and gracious, but extremely focused on helping me be successful. Which sometimes means a bit of "good natured harassment". It takes a certain personality type to be able to find that balance between being professional/respectful but also pushing when necessary. Joann excels at this. I wholeheartedly recommend her!
I was very new to the concept of a VA and wasn’t entirely sure until I used AugustPOPS services, she is very approachable, extremely organized and immediately got to work helping me organize my very hectic life with tools I was able to learn quickly to navigate. It was the best investment i could give myself to keep all the balls i juggle in the air. She will also make sure you don’t forget your personal relationships by suggesting ways to remember and honor important events. Don’t waste any more time looking for any other VA, she is extremely experienced, punctual and talented.
I called Joanne with ‘mission impossible’ in my basement. It was five storage rooms worth and 38 years of storing books, clothes, furniture and memorabilia. Joanne was not daunted, she created a system and thoughtfully nudged me through it all. She was part shrink and part chief operating officer. Joanne kept both my husband and myself on the path and actually made it fun- lots of laughs and good humor. She is part angel and part guard dog- guarding your future and how you envision your self living in that future. If I could give more than 5 stars, I would... I would double that 5. Hire her- she is worth every penny!
Jo-Ann was absolutely wonderful. Not only is she talented, she perfectly comprehended my vision. Going forward, she will be my go-to!
She is remarkable!!Her work ethics and the kindness she shows make it worthy to work with her. She is fearless and determine to take the task and I am forever grateful!!
Great job and completed within the expected timetable. JoAnn was easy to work with, and offered suggestions to improve documentation quality! Thanks for all the hard work!
Received required task in a very short time. Pleased with the layout and how the flow for easy review of the documents. Would order again and highly recommend her!
Amazing!!!!! Had a basement just packed to the gills with stuff (work and home stuff) 6 and 1/2 hours later and 1/3 of the basement is organized, threw out a ton of stuff. Will definitely hire her when ready to tackle the rest! Having surgery tomorrow so have to wait.
It is a pleasure to work with AugustPops. She is in an orderly and intelligent manner helping me create logic out of chaos with an enormous backlog of problems and paperwork. I am beginning to see the light and a system that will guide my business and personal life.
