Virtual Assistant Windsor, Slough & Maidenhead
My name is Emma Scott and I am the owner of Pink Spaghetti – Windsor, Slough and Maidenhead. As a small business owner, I understand the demands of running a business and I am passionate about helping and supporting other businesses to enable a business owner to grow and thrive.
I am based in Langley near Slough and take care of the tasks you as a business owner don’t enjoy doing, don’t know how to do or don’t find the time to do, it’s generally those things that lurk at the bottom of the to-do list.
Whether that’s administration, organisation, support with a project or planning and running an event, research, or marketing related tasks, I strive to provide support to businesses and organisations in a friendly, approachable and pro-active way.
Why Me
I have been running the business for over 4 years, prior to becoming a small business owner, I worked in the pharmaceutical and FMCG Industries in technical, customer service, planning, co-ordination, data management and business analyst roles.
With a friendly and flexible approach and a wealth of experience, I am able to assist any business with a wide range of tasks, enabling your business to grow or to give you more time to spend on your interests or with your family.

Why a virtual assistant?
As a virtual personal assistant, we can help and support businesses with a wide range of tasks, allowing our clients time and space to focus on the core and passion of their business. We assist a number of clients with key administration tasks, managing expenses and invoicing, research, project work, data management, Social Media management, Social Media training, updating website content, writing and adding regular blog posts and we also provide support for adhoc or one-off tasks for example formatting documents and templates.
The real benefit to our clients, is that whilst they are focusing on their clients, we can be managing their meeting confirmations or sending out their newsletter.
Supporting our clients means that they can get on with running their business and adding value whilst we are in the background supporting them with their marketing and keeping customers up to date with their latest news. Whilst promoting their brand and business to enable them to attract even more clients.
As you only pay for the time you need using a virtual personal assistant is a very cost-effective form of resource for any small or medium sized business. We only charge you for the time spent on your tasks, our pricing is flexible ranging from a “pick-up, put down” pay as you go service to a retainer agreement fixed for a set number of hours, assisting you with the time needed for specific tasks each month. We also offer a fixed price for our monthly Bronze, Silver and Gold packages for Social Media so that our clients can more easily manage their marketing budget.
Why Pink Spaghetti?
Being part of a franchise means I have a wealth and wide range of experience to call on. If I don't know the answer to something, there is usually someone I can ask for help. In the past I have used other franchisees to cover my maternity leave and holidays, ensuring resource and continuity is always there.
We are a friendly, approachable, adaptable and we can be a part of your team for as much or as little time as you need us. We often find that our clients appreciate the flexibility that we offer and the fact that they can reserve a set amount of time each month on a retainer basis or use our services for specific tasks as and when they require them.
In addition to the intense training course all franchisees are given when they join the Pink Spaghetti Family. The franchise continues to provide a wealth of regular training opportunities to assist us to ensure that we are kept updated with best practice and compliant whenever new regulations come along e.g. GDPR. Every year franchisees are invited to attend the Annual Conference to listen to inspirational talks and hear all about the launch of new initiatives. In addition to the business updates the training we receive, the sharing of best practice amongst franchisees means that we always come home full of inspiration and ideas for our own businesses and on ways we can better support our clients too.
A range of Virtual PA Services
We provide a wide range of tasks for our clients, from sending meeting confirmations and database management to creating marketing content for social media, creating e-newsletters.
We can help our clients to review their processes, get more organised and find more efficient ways of running the administration of the business and we can manage specific tasks on their behalf.
People often use our services when they are staring out and don’t have the skills in a certain area such as Social Media Management or know the best way to set up efficient processes.
Perhaps a business is growing and they need some support with some of the key tasks they need to complete to run their business smoothly and effectively, these are usually the things they don’t enjoy doing or find they have increasingly less and less time available to complete these tasks.
Alternatively, they may want to free up some time so they can spend more time on value added tasks such as meeting clients, more time with family or to take time out to achieve a better work-life balance.

Executive Coaching Business
We have worked with an executive coaching client for 18 months. In addition to daily tasks such as diary management and adhoc project related tasks to support business growth, we create engaging marketing content to connect them with their audience via Social Media and blog posts on their website. Our favourite task for this client is an annual one where we manage the purchasing, packing, packaging and posting of Christmas gifts and cards to connections and the clients she has coached during that year.

On a monthly basis we create and schedule content for the page. Taking time and care to make sure we are working to our clients’ needs by researching topical, timely and relevant content.
