Success Story
"I’ve guided many clients through their business journeys, supporting them from initial setup to successful launch. By helping them streamline processes and craft websites that reflect their unique goals, I ensure they can focus on their vision while I handle the essentials.
For example, I had the pleasure of working with Dragonfly Harmonics to set up their website and support their business launch. Beyond the website, I provided comprehensive business setup support, including ICO data registration, domain name purchase, logo and business card design, and even assisting with administrative details such as business bank accounts, insurance options, and contract advice. I also implemented a calendar and scheduling system, guided HMRC registration requirements for sole traders, collaborated on a privacy policy, and suggested document storage methods.
“I have had the pleasure of working alongside Karen to set up my webpage. As someone who is not very computer literate, Karen made the process look so easy. She helped me navigate various platforms to find the right look I wanted to achieve, playing with different colour palettes, font choices, and web design. Karen also assisted with the administrative tasks that come with setting up a new business. I am truly happy with what we have both created. If it wasn’t for Karen’s amazing abilities to navigate these platforms and her reasonable pricing, my business would still just be a dream in the making, instead of becoming a reality”
