ENTERPRISING businesswoman Ausra Uzukauskaite, founder of independent property agency Amber Properties, is discovering the benefits of working with like-minded professionals like Ruth Dyer, one of Northampton’s leading virtual assistants.
The two women quickly realised that their refreshing way of doing business is not only proving productive but is catching the eye of judges in awards that celebrate enterprise and innovation.
Ruth, who has helped Ausra make the most of the opportunities at her independent letting agency, is celebrating the news that she is a finalist in the prestigious UK VA Awards again this year.
Ausra has already found success in recent awards. She was named in the Young Business Person of the Year Award at the SME Northamptonshire Business Awards and awarded the Business Woman of the Year 2017 for the CEO monthly magazine.
Ausra, who is regularly looking for opportunities to grow her business, said: “Anyone who has set up their own business will understand how many challenges they have to face so it is good to work with other professionals who complement your ideas.”
The ongoing growth of Ausra’s business includes the launch of Amber Renovations, the dedicated property maintenance arm of Amber Properties. This offers a comprehensive service to ensure properties are safe, clean and fit-for-purpose with the team working with other professionals through a network of trusted tradesmen.
Excellent customer service is key to making this new business a success which is one reason why Ausra has started to work with RDVA.
The VA of the Year Award, which will be announced in early March, recognises professional excellence within the industry.
Ruth said: “Amber Properties is a classic example of a business that makes the most of opportunities without compromising on standards. Working with a VA is a really cost-effective way to reduce the stress of running your own business. By freeing up extra hours for my clients every day they have time to really focus on what they do best.
“It’s a real pleasure to help busy professionals to manage their finance and admin, customer support, social media and diaries.”
