This offer is designed for entrepreneurs who know their business has potential, but lack the clarity, structure or perspective to know what to tackle first.
It is for you if too much still depends on you alone, if your organisation feels unclear, if you know you should be delegating but don't know where to start, or if you spend too much time working in your business rather than on it.
The format includes:
a short preparatory questionnaire;
a one-hour audit giving a 360° review of your business;
an audit report identifying urgent priorities and secondary recommendations;
a half-day strategy session to turn the report into a clear, prioritised action plan.
During the audit, we review your entire business: offer, clients, organisation, operations, finances, tools, systems, processes and day-to-day running. The goal is to clearly identify what is blocking progress, what is draining your energy and what needs to be addressed first.
The report then serves as the foundation for the strategy session. Together, we define what to simplify immediately, what to structure first, what to delegate, in what order, and how to make your organisation run more smoothly.
You leave with:
a clear picture of what is working and what is not;
a written report;
a structured, prioritised action plan;
a concrete delegation strategy;
the foundations of a smoother, clearer and more autonomous business.
With my own business at a crossroad and me needing to articulate a shift in direction, Jennifer worked with me to evaluate the current state of my business and lay the groundwork for this change in direction. Jennifer walked me through a structured assessment and dialog, asked me thought-provoking questions (some of which I could not answer at the time, which is partly the point!), and provided clear and concrete action steps for me to continue to make progress in developing my business and making my intentions for it a reality in the next 6-18 months. I am grateful for Jennifer's wisdom and guidance and she will be a continued partner and colleague for me and for many years to come.
Jennifer is an incredible experienced professional in her field and I was lucky to get a few mentorship sessions with her. She was always available to provide guidance and her insights and advice really boosted my confidence. I would recommend her to anyone in the early stages of entrepreneurial journey.
Jen provided me with an incredible business assessment that was truly transformative and gave me the motivation and kick up the bum I needed. Before working with her, I felt completely stuck and overwhelmed, unsure of how to move forward. I needed to relaunch my business but everything felt too much. Jen's attentive and enthusiastic approach instantly put me at ease, and her insights were so helpful. She helped me gain clarity and a clear direction, leaving me feeling empowered and excited about the future of my business. I can't recommend Jen highly enough—she's a true gem!

I had the absolute pleasure of working with Jennifer on a recent project for Business Disability International, where we needed translation and voice work delivered in French. Her responsiveness, professionalism and attention to detail made the entire process seamless.
She was an absolute joy to work with, and I cannot overstate how much we appreciated her support and follow up during the process.
Thank you, Jennifer.
I had the pleasure of working with Jennifer and her company, Bilingual Lantern, during Paris Packaging Week 2026, where she supported Maharashtra Metal Works at our exhibition booth.
Over the course of the event, she was professional, proactive, and very comfortable engaging with a high volume of visitors in a busy trade show environment. She handled conversations confidently, helped facilitate interactions with potential clients, and contributed to keeping the booth operations running smoothly.
I appreciated her support during the exhibition and wish her and Bilingual Lantern continued success in their future projects.
Jennifer and her team are fabulous.
Managing the French paperwork can be tricky and she was able to give the assistance I needed at various points in my work / life in France.
She was also able to rework several parts of my paperwork that had been completed improperly - no small task in France.
I’m grateful for her kind spirit and professionalism. I highly recommend her.
I highly recommend Jennifer as a VA! She is flexible and creative, and works hard to respond to my constantly shifting and very varied administrative and marketing needs. She is always friendly and warm to boot. You will enjoy working with her.
Jennifer is energetic, tenacious, intelligent and has a great eye for detail. She is well-organised and extremely personable. She was an asset to the office I worked in with her and I hope I have the opportunity of working with her again in the future.
I reached out on Facebook for help with a paragraph I needed to be translated into French and German. Within minutes, Jennifer had graciously offered to help me, and within a very short turnaround time had completed the translations perfectly. The client I needed them for was thrilled and so was I. I highly, highly recommend Jennifer!
I had the opportunity to work closely with Jennifer on a major European event in October 2014. I was very impressed by her professionalism, commitment and attention to details. Jennifer is a very reliable team member as well as a pleasant person to be around.
Jennifer was part of the organisation team of EUMA 40th international conference in Oct 2014. Her contribution was essential for the success of the event. Jennifer was very helpful and professional during all the event, and able to quickly respond to the numerous last minute requests. As a EUMA member, Jennifer was very engaged, always looking for development of her skills and improvement in her career.
Jennifer was such a great help as a VA, I will highly recommend her. She has been absolutely patient with me as I adjusted to having a VA in my business. She has given me really good support and helped me set up systems as they were needed in my business. Thanks Jen!
Jennifer assisted me with a bilingual business matter. She was incredibly responsive, handled the work in a very short amount of time and was both efficient and highly competent. The matter was resolved very quickly and positively thanks to her assistance.
