Above: organisations VS has contracted to.

 

 

Having worked within a non-profit school sport organisation, clubs and along side many regional & national sports organisations, I know all about the financial and time restraints many of them face. Virtually Sorted is here to offer you a solution on both fronts.
If your staff are snowed under (maybe only at certain times of year) but you can't afford to employ another permanent staff member, Virtually Sorted can take on tasks/projects to alleviate the pressure.
You don't think your organisation is running efficiently at present, so let Virtually Sorted review the current situation and make recommendations for improvement.

OFFICE SYSTEM SOLUTIONS

 

Not quite sure how to organise when and how things are done, or where things should go? You need some systems put in place. Here are the types of things I can help you with:

  • Operations Manual
  • Filing/Archiving System (hardcopy & softcopy)
  • Task Delegation


Case Study
Operations Manual

As Operations Manager at College Sport, Sara recognized the need for a manual to document all policies and procedures for the office. Not only was it a ‘how to’ manual, but also outlined responsibilities so that staff’s positions descriptions directly related to the operations manual.

The manual included main sections such as Policies, General Office, Information Technology; with numerous topics within each section i.e. Staff Leave, Using the Photocopier, How to Create a Draw etc.

As an operations manual is a ‘working document’, rather than keeping it as hard copy, it was kept on the office server. Having this one copy updated meant anyone accessing it was reading the current copy. An index document with links to all the relevant sections was created which made finding the information required extremely easy.

WEBSITES

DESIGN
A website is an effective and low cost method for telling people about your company. So if you don't need a complex high end flash animated site or e-commerce site, then look no further. Why pay more when a simple but tastefully designed site is all you need? I can design simple affordable brochure type websites which consists of:

  • Web design
  • Domain name registration
  • Hosting co-ordination
  • Co-ordinate Search Engine Optimization (SEO)

(If a more complex high end site is what you're after, then I can highly recommend idesign.)


Examples of Sites I've created:

Price
By Quotation
An 8 page site is approximately $900 not including domain or hosting fees; add on another $850 for SEO.
$40 per page to change or add pages

 

ADMINISTRATION
Haven’t got the time to keep your website up to date? Well I know my way around packages such as Dreamweaver or I'm happy to use content management systems, so you can leave the time-consuming task of administering your website up to me. I can do the following:

  • Ensure that standards are maintained so that links are current and efficient
  • Take editorial responsibility for the content, quality and style of the site

Price
$30 per hour administration
