Technology was very different back in 2001. The internet in the home was dial-up which meant it was extremely slow, not very reliable, and if you were online, you couldn’t use the landline to make calls. Google was only two years old and was purely a search engine. Facebook, YouTube and Twitter were yet to be launched. Mobile phones were around, but all you could do with them was make calls or send texts, both of which were expensive. And the idea of being able to make video calls was still the stuff of science fiction. So setting up a business that was 100% reliant on the emerging IT technology was a big https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f0453ab00c2700a10c4a856/1606318629509-XMPGO7QGI8O3F9L3O449/sharon-mccutcheon-gxkWSW6K15Y-unsplash-extraordinary.jpg History 2020 Lockdown Of course remote working took off during the pandemic lockdowns. While more and more people were already adopting remote and hybrid working, the lockdowns ensured it became common practice across the entire business community. Possibly as a result of this, demand for VAs rose in 2020 and 2021, at the same time as more highly skilled VAs entered the profession and were looking for great clients to work with. That’s why, in May 2021, blueumbrella was in a position to take on a Business Manager in order to deal with the increased demand. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f0453ab00c2700a10c4a856/1646128805950-5AGCH5S4C8YWW7X14UZT/blue-umbrella-cover-1.jpg History Why blueumbrella? When Jill was thinking about brand names for her new company, she didn’t want to pick anything obvious. She drew inspiration from the unusual names of some companies that were around at the time, such as Orange and Egg. At one point she opened her desk drawer and the first thing she saw was a blue umbrella. When she asked a friend who worked in marketing what he thought, he loved it because blue is a calming colour and an umbrella is something that protects you - a perfect association with VAs. An added bonus is that people remember the unusual name, which has been a huge business advantage. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f0453ab00c2700a10c4a856/1625841013370-6G4F7SXB47SHQ4384D5L/Lizzie+Ostrom+Crop.jpg History - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f0453ab00c2700a10c4a856/1625841030998-86XK0UG77HL23LP73CC5/Gojko+Adzic+Crop.jpg History - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f0453ab00c2700a10c4a856/1625840903332-GF8S62PM46MKR1HUOJ2P/Andrew_Main.jpg History - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://www.blueumbrella.co.uk/pricing daily 0.75 2025-03-05 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f0453ab00c2700a10c4a856/6e928bf6-44c1-4fa4-9a9f-03fb7554b904/young-beautiful-woman-talking-to-customers-remotel-2023-11-27-05-08-58-utc.jpg https://www.blueumbrella.co.uk/contact-us-1 daily 0.75 2024-05-03 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f0453ab00c2700a10c4a856/1626637484123-CVTN8GE8L0R5A2X5OIWR/mia-baker-q6L8iZCZlBk-unsplash_contact.jpg Contact us (old) - Virtual assistants Are you a virtual assistant, or looking to become one?
