Hi, I’m Zoe — a Virtual Assistant and Digital Operations Manager who brings over a decade of corporate experience into the heart-centred world of small business. After more than 10 years working in Human Resources management, executive assistance, and business operations, I chose to step away from the corporate world to support the people I’m truly passionate about: small business owners, start-ups, hobbyists, wellness practitioners, and creative entrepreneurs who want grounded, dependable support without the overwhelm. My work blends structure with intuition, helping you keep your digital world organised while offering genuine strategic and creative insight. I manage the day-to-day tasks that keep your business flowing — website updates, content management, bookings, calendars, admin support, workflow organisation, simple tech fixes, and content formatting. I’m experienced in both Wix and WordPress and can confidently work across almost any platform, program, or digital system. If I haven’t used it before, I learn it quickly — and can implement it just as easily. Clients often describe me as calm, communicative, detail-focused, and easy to work with. My corporate foundation means I understand systems, efficiency, confidentiality, and professional communication, while my shift into the wellness and creative space means I work with softness, flexibility, and an understanding of the unique needs of soul-led businesses. I take scattered tasks and turn them into clear actions, help tidy what feels messy, and bring order to the areas that have slipped to the bottom of your list. If you’re looking for grounded virtual assistance, ongoing operational support, help managing your website, or someone who can hold both the technical and human sides of your business with care, I’d love to support you. Let’s make your workload lighter, your systems smoother, and your online presence feel beautifully manageable. 🌿

Australia-based China Sourcing Specialist with a trusted execution team on the ground in China. I help E-commerce brands (Amazon/eBay) and growing businesses source reliable suppliers from China — with structured execution and clear communication so you don’t have to micromanage the process. Why partner with an Australian specialist with a China-based team? The biggest risk in remote sourcing isn’t finding a factory; it’s the "Standard Gap" and lack of accountability. I bridge this gap by offering: • Australian Accountability: As an Australian-registered partner, I provide a level of contractual security and professional transparency that offshore freelancers cannot. You get local business standards and native-level communication. • Western Standards, Local Execution: I apply Australian quality management protocols to my dedicated execution team in China. We don't just "call" factories; we physically deploy staff to production lines across China’s manufacturing hubs for on-site audits. • E-commerce DNA: From meeting Amazon FBA strict prep requirements to eBay’s need for rapid fulfillment and Shopify bespoke packaging, we understand the specific ecosystems of global marketplaces. ### Core Services • Strategic Sourcing: Identifying Top-tier (not just "cheapest") suppliers with verified export experience. • Quality Assurance (The "Protector" Model): On-site factory audits and pre-shipment inspections based on strict Western AQL standards. • Logistics & Consolidation: Managing the "First Mile" in China to ensure your goods reach Australian or global warehouses efficiently. • Risk Mitigation: Contract negotiation, sample validation, and IP protection to ensure your brand stays yours. ### How We Work 1. Alignment: We define your quality benchmarks, platform requirements (FBA/eBay/Direct), and target margins here in Australia. 2. Execution: My China-based team operates as your "eyes and ears," conducting on-site visits and production monitoring. 3. Reporting: You receive professional, English-language reports that highlight risks and solutions, not just "all-clears." Stop gambling with unverified suppliers. Let’s build an E-commerce supply chain that’s as reliable as your local business partners. Ready to streamline your sourcing? Click the "Message" or "Invite" button to discuss your project.
