Admin, Tech, and Marketing Support for UK Small Business Owners.
Too much to do, not enough time?
We support you with behind-the-scenes jobs so you can focus on other parts of the business.
Scale your business, not your workload.
Support starting from £150/month.
I’m Alison, and alongside my team at Allocate-VA, we provide reliable business support for small business owners, coaches, and service providers across the UK. If you are looking for help to organise my business because you are drowning in paperwork, we make outsourcing small business admin entirely stress-free.
If your inbox is overflowing, your to-do list never seems to end, and you’re spending evenings trying to catch up, I step in and take care of the behind-the-scenes work that keeps everything moving. That can include inbox and diary management, general admin support, CRM updates, spreadsheet organisation, email marketing, website updates, funnels, newsletters, and simple system or tech support.
The aim is simple, to take the pressure off your day-to-day workload so you can focus on growing your business, serving your clients, and getting your time back.

What is a Virtual Assistant?
Think of us just like a freelance, local office support team or a virtual PA for coaches, tradespeople, and self-employed professionals.
You get all the high-quality office assistance of a traditional secretary, but without the massive cost and commitment of hiring an employee.
When you look at a VA versus a traditional employee, the benefits for a small business are clear:
Save Money on Payroll: There are no permanent employee contracts, no National Insurance, no pensions, and no holiday pay to worry about. You only ever pay for productive time worked.
No Overhead Costs: We use our own software, laptops, and offices for us to get to work.
Total Flexibility: Need 5 hours this month to sort out your spreadsheets, but 15 hours next month for a website or funnel launch? No problem. Scale our support up or down to suit your exact budget.
Get Your Evenings Back: Stop spending your Sundays doing invoicing, organizing digital files, and chasing receipts. Hand the admin over to us so you can actually switch off, protect your mental health, and spend time with your family.
Reviews
Lauren Siddons - OBM
"Alison has been an incredible support to me and my clients. She manages our Xero invoicing and keeps the inbox perfectly organised. She initially started as maternity cover but has since become an invaluable asset to my business. I can finally relax knowing everything is in such capable hands."
Lynne Wainwright Legs & Co
I can highly recommend Alison, she totally saved my website and made it better than ever! She’s a pleasure to work with, extremely patient (even after my numerous changes) and most of all 100% efficient. Cannot recommend Alison highly enough.
Donna Godfrey - Face Painting
"I was completely overwhelmed by my inbox before I started working with Alison. She has taken over my email management with such efficiency and a friendly, professional touch. It’s a massive weight off my shoulders knowing my communications are in safe hands while I focus on running my business. "
Frequently asked questions
If you’re constantly busy but not moving your business forward, it’s usually a sign. A VA helps you get out of the day-to-day so you can focus on growth.
Start with the tasks you avoid, repeat, or know you shouldn’t be doing — things like admin, inbox, systems, or content. We’ll help you figure this out if you’re unsure.
No. Support is designed to be flexible, allowing you to get help when you need it.
Yes. We can usually work within the systems and software you already use, whether that's Xero, Notion, Systeme.io, Microsoft 365, Google Workspace, HubSpot, or something else. You share those logins using a password protector.
