Beginnings to Present, Our Promise to our Clients
Brand Identity of The 24 Hour Secretary
In 1989, after being laid off from a government position, Sharon Williams found her 15+ years of real-world marketing, negotiations and administrative expertise were highly coveted by small businesses and entrepreneurs who needed practical help to promote their businesses and solve their administrative challenges, but didnít have a lot of time or large budgets to spend on agencies or full-time personnel.
Williams, who spent most of her marketing and negotiations time leading a large union and her administrative time supporting government department administrators, had developed a very practical, strategic approach to marketing and administrative support. Realizing she could leverage her expertise of government and small business marketing and administrative management to meet the needs and time constraints of busy executives and entrepreneurs, she founded The 24 Hour Secretary in November 1990, and began providing affordable, integrated marketing, planning and administrative services 24 hours a day.
As a result of redesigning the companyís business model, The 24 Hour Secretary developed into an administrative, secretarial, marketing and internet-based support firm, open 24 hours a day, that helps busy and often overwhelmed executives and entrepreneurs handle tasks they dislike or lack time to complete. Our services leverage 100+ years of combined experience to provide real-world administrative and marketing tools that resolve challenges and exceed expectations.
From the beginning, the company has adhered to Williams' original vision:
- Create the East Coastís most trusted administrative and marketing support services firm
- Offer clients a virtual marketing team they can utilize for ala carte projects or packaged services
- Educate clients that proper office administration and record keeping is an integral element of strategic business growth
- Recruit skilled and experienced consultants and give them the tools and support they need to do great work
