"Using Carol Birkey as our virtual assistant has proved invaluable to our organization when we have projects to be done that our staff does not have the time or the resources to complete in a timely manner. She has provided many "quick tips" to assist us in staying ahead of schedule and provided us with many ideas on how to maintain our company's team spirit."

"Working with Carol, I've made great strides in my business that I could hardly have imagined when I first started.. It is such a relief to meet someone as experienced and straight-forward as Carol who can say-it-like-it-is and set a course for progress while never losing her sense of humor. She is both a leader and a cheerLeader. If you are willing to do what it takes to improve your business, I firmly believe Carol can show you the way."

"I will soon be taking on more responsibility in my job and have been concerned about how I am going to stay on top of things. I had been receiving Carol's little reminders (emails and postcards) and decided to contact her. Through our conversation, Carol listened to my challenges and was able to give me sound advice on organizational systems and products to implement into my life. Having Carol to listen and help sort through things that were bogging me down was a good investment of my time. Thank you, Carol."

"Carol Birkey is the business coach of your dreams, she is warm and friendly but firm and honest at the same time. You always know where you stand with Carol because she tells it like it is and she only wants to see you succeed. I love to call Carol with my successes and hear her enthusiasm but she also encourages you when the going gets tough with great ideas and a go-getter attitude. She is a whiz at getting you and your business noticed for little or no money, like the 3 articles that I was featured in the KC Star in the last 6 months!! Thanks Carol."

"Carol Birkey is a godsend to a busy senior executive like me who travels every week. She brings sanity to my work schedule and helps me "wow" my clients with amazing turnaround on projects. In my corporate role, I have to collect and analyze sales revenue data from our 41 newspapers across the country. Carol is my go-to-person who builds my reports and keeps me informed on who makes deadlines. It's simply detail that I don't have time to do, but she does it with flawless execution. Carol has an amazing work ethic. I ask when something will be completed and it always gets done ahead of time. At times I don't think she sleeps. Much of my success and reputation with my company is due to the many ways that she supports me and my projects. She's fantastic."

Twice I have moved and twice I have relied on Carol and her expertise to guide me through the upheaval of an office move due to the growth of my practice. She was a life and time saver in that, #1 - finding a telephone system that would grow with my business and #2 - finding a copier company that would give me the service and expertise that I needed. Carol brings a fresh perspective to the table and keeps me on the success track.
I have been working with Carol Birkey for the past 5 years and it has been a wonderful relationship. When I was looking to start my own business I was lost in a sea of confusion while trying to figure out just where to start. I contacted Carol and from that point forward she has been my top advisor/coach ever since.
Carol's ability to look in from a unbiased view point and explain to me in plain english what she sees wrong and then gives me more than just one way to improve. Carol does not force her ideas on me, I still have to decide and implement the ideas myself and if needed, with Carol's assistance and guidance.
If I had to rank my must have resources for operation I would HAVE to put Carol Birkey's coaching and advising in the top 3 most important resources.
