My Clients Say It Best

You can’t go past Nicole at the Red Button. We are a Melbourne based company and Nicole is based in Brisbane but she has been our VA for years and we’d be lost without her. She’s reliable, knowledgeable, friendly and professional. She’s like a black belt of Virtual Assistants, throw any task at her and she will smash it! She seamlessly picks up tasks and you feel as if she’s working right there beside you. Cannot recommend Nicole enough.

Hi Nicole – I just want to express my sincere appreciation for your support this week. I have been feeling under pressure on this assignment and you made all the difference in my ability to execute it and meet the timeline. Your calm, capable style, professional skills, pragmatism and kindness are wonderful and I am very grateful for the opportunity to work with you.

I’ve worked with Nicole for years & cannot speak highly enough of her personally or professionally. Professionally shes reliable, intelligent, has incredible attention to detail & an incredibly high work ethic. Personally she’s loyal, passionate, caring, genuine & hilarious. Our paths have crossed a few times over the years & in every business she’s added value far beyond her original brief. Her skill set is far beyond your average Virtual Assistant. I would happily recommend Nicole for any business. Including mine!

Nicole is a pleasure to work with. She is highly capable and extremely efficient. I know that if I send work out to The Red Button that it will be done well, on time and within budget.

Nicole was my Personal Assistant and nothing was ever too much trouble, and the attitude that she displayed whilst working with the broader team was fantastic. Very sad to see Nicole leave.

Nicole has an abundance of the three key attributes I look for in an Executive Assistant – initiative, reliability & trust. As an added bonus her positivity is infectious.

“Nicole’s attitude has been the glue, especially between the executive team.”

I’ve been extremely fortunate enough to work with Nicole for the past five years at LCW. Nicole has been my Executive Assistant at LCW performing various tasks for me at a very high standard and with great efficiency. Nicole’s role included, but wasn’t limited to, booking travel globally, managing mine along with my business partner’s calendars, staff contracts and negotiations, administration duties to name a few. However, where Nicole distances herself from a good employee to a great one, is her attitude. The longer I live and I’m in my own businesses, the more and more I realise the impact of attitude on life. Attitude, to me, is more important than ability. It is more important than the past, than education, than money, than circumstances, than failures, than successes, than what other people think, say or do. It is more important than appearance, gifted ability, or skill. It will make or break a company, a friendship or a home. So it’s fair to say Nicole’s attitude has been the glue in LCW, especially between the executive team.

It was once said to me that only people of character are trusted. So it is Nicole’s character that I admire so much.

So it’s without reservation that I wholeheartedly recommend Nicole!

It is a pleasure to work with such a responsive and thoughtful professional.

Nicole is a trusted and capable resource for anyone seeking who may be looking for a flexible, experienced and mature person to partner with.

My clients are demanding and with Nicole’s support we are able to meet their expectations.

Michaela Healey | The Magokoro Practice

Wonderful, wonderful lady. Nic has and remains to be a brilliant virtual EA not only for myself but also our broader team. Highly competent in all the skills you would expect from an EA with a little added HR experience which has been a godsend for our team. If you are looking for a flexible, highly competent and professional assistant Nic is your Gal!! 

Richie Vandenberg, CEO | The Hidden Sea

One of the most professional, trustworthy and helpful people I know. To say that Nicole goes beyond the call of duty is an understatement! Nicole has just helped me with a recruitment campaign. She conducted phone interviews and provided a summary for each candidate then prepared one document with everything I needed to conduct interviews. Nicole politely followed up and was able to guide me when required. She even sent me a text message reminding me about a candidate’s birthday! I highly recommend Nicole.

I have known and worked with Nicole McConville for over ten years in two different organisations. 
 
Nicole is a highly intelligent and capable operator who I have always found to be exceptionally trustworthy. She has superior organisational and time management skills, combined with being someone who always uses her initiative and common sense to resolve problems. 
 
Nicole has always impressed me in how professional and capable she is at whatever task she encounters. She has a positive attitude and prides herself on having a professional approach, which shines through. 
 
I would have no hesitation in recommending Nicole – she is a real asset.
