Eco Virtual Assistant Service supporting sustainable businesses
Hello there!
Hello there! I’m Maya Vertigans, the Founder and woman behind the eco virtual assistant business, Planner Bee VA Services. Having experience running my own sustainable gifting business, I understand the struggles of running a purpose-led business and trying to juggle benefiting the environment whilst also growing a successful business.
Stumbling from Ethical Product Business to Eco Virtual Assistant
In 2020, whilst running my own eco-friendly gifting business, I was keen to learn as much as possible and undertook courses and workshops on all aspects of business, from social media and SEO to content creation and email marketing. Over time, all of this learning combined with my love of writing and degree from the University of Edinburgh took me to the point where I stumbled into the VA world. I began helping other entrepreneurs to run their ethical businesses and reach their goals, as an eco Virtual Assistant, I just didn’t know that this was what I was doing yet.
With my existing passion for protecting the planet, I realised that by supporting purpose-led businesses, I was able to help my clients create a greater environmental impact. In September 2021 I decided I wanted to grow to support more purpose-led businesses and officially launch my eco virtual assistant business, Planner Bee VA Services.
Now it is my mission to support you as you run your business, helping you to create a buzz with your marketing, smash your goals and feel more fulfilled in the process.

If you are a small business looking for an efficient VA then I’d highly recommend Maya at Planner Bee VA Services."
