Testimonials

“Before I started working with BizMagic, I was doing a lot of tech tasks myself because I was *just* competent enough and even sometimes enjoyed those tasks.

The problem was, that was absolutely NOT how I should have been spending my time—it was a form of procrastination. And the more booked up my schedule got, the less I enjoyed those tasks anyway.

Now, I have a whole team of experts I can turn to whenever I need tech or systems support.

Need to create a new website page in ShowIt? Patti’s team designs it more beautifully than I ever could.

Deliverability issue notification from HoneyBook? The wizards at BizMagic can figure it out.

No system for assigning tasks or keeping clients updated on exactly where their project stands? The Notion experts can build what I’m envisioning (but better).

If you’re new to outsourcing or have worked with a solo VA who didn’t have the impact you hoped they would on your business, BizMagic is absolutely worth the investment. Yes, you’ll pay more than a solo VA, but you’ll also get a wider range of expertise from a team of values-driven experts who also happen to be incredibly kind, talented women.”

—Cassie Paton, Brand Messaging Strategist & Copywriter at Mettle & Tonic

 “Patti is phenomenal. She knows business forward and backward, she's professional, knowledgeable, decisive, detail oriented, proactive, and is someone I genuinely look forward to spending time with. Her depth of experience across so many different programs, services, and automations that I use to keep things running is astonishing. She takes total ownership of anything I ask for her help on, and is genuinely excited when there's an opportunity to learn something new. I have so much more peace of mind knowing that she's keeping everything working properly behind the scenes. I've worked with at least 25 different contractors in my business over the years, and Patti is without a doubt one of the top three. Your business, customers, and family will thank you for working with her, so if she has space? Snap it up!”

—Kyla Roma, Marketing Educator & Strategist, Kyla Roma Creative

 “Working with the Biz Magic Team has been life changing for me. When I need anything biz related done, I know I can hand it off and it will be done professionally and efficiently and just the way I like it - which leaves me more time to be in my own zone of genius. I feel heard, understood and supported and I appreciate this team so much. I've been working with Biz Magic now for two years and I can't imagine my life without them. The longer I work with them, the more I discover what they can do. This is the best investment I make every month.”

“I knew it was time to switch to a new CRM because I knew that data, and therefore people, were falling through the cracks in my systems. Not only was this lost potential business but also a dent to my relationships with my clients. So I hired BizMagic to find the best CRM, set it up, and migrate all of my data. Patti is a delight! She is smart and charming, so working with her is fun. She also can slice through a long set of requirements to see the best path forward. Working with BizMagic gave me the confidence of knowing that things are taken care of, though I still need to do my part. I’m looking forward to having this help me with sales and customer relations in 2024. I would absolutely recommend BizMagic to any solopreneur that is tired of learning about all the new systems available. Save your time and sanity! Ask someone who already knows, and who likes doing the research! In the meantime, I’ll be back when I get more growing pains.”

“I LOVE my new website!!! It feels so ME! I think it's goofy, has giraffes popping about, incorporates boba, little me-moji's -- I love it. And I appreciate that Patti was able to make me feel comfortable enough to even make such outlandish requests!

Contemplating a new website was scary and overwhelming. I mean, I had one already, but it got to a point where the upkeep was so daunting with the current systems I had in place for keeping it updated, and with the increase of people browsing website on their mobile (I created my website to be viewed on a laptop/computer), I just wasn't really sure how to adapt... and the longer I put it off, the more overwhelming it seemed. It got to a point where I'd feel embarrassed when people linked to it, and that's... well, that's not a great feeling. 

Working with Patti was SUPER EASY, specifically because she gave me homework that I could wrap my head around. I may not have had any idea where to even begin with a redesign, but gosh darnit, I can pick colors I like! I can talk about what I want the site to do and what I'd like it to feel like! I can look at other websites and say, "ooh! I like that feature!" And before I knew it, there was a draft available for me to check out! 

I have to take a sec to talk about the videos. Maybe that's standard in the industry — I honestly don't know! — but I was pleasantly surprised by [Patti’s] video updates/communications. Seeing how the website was coming along…and hearing her talk about her thought process as she troubleshooted some of the design elements was very helpful and kept me very much engaged throughout the process. In my case specifically, this was very helpful because my budget didn't allow for some of the easy fixes a premium website could easily handle. I picked the lowest website tier out of necessity, which meant my website couldn't involve a whole lot of code unless I upgraded. Patti's videos really helped me to understand the pros & cons of each possible workaround. And they were also just plain relaxing.

I would recommend Patti and BizMagic to anyone really. In my case specifically, I knew Patti had some background with actors and other folks in the performing arts, so that was really helpful — I didn't have to necessarily explain "my brand" or get into search engine optimization or anything like that. She knew what I wanted — basically a fun archive of my work that I can easily update myself as I continue in the industry — and she delivered!”

—Louel Señores, Actor

“Patti is the glue that holds my business together.

I’m a big-picture ideas person and definitely not someone who is naturally organised. Luckily — this doesn’t matter, because I have Patti to do this for me!

She works on almost every area of my business, getting things done, keeping me on track, doing research and undertaking day-to-day tasks for me. This leaves me time to work on business development, and to take time off to be with my family — without panicking that everything’s going to fall apart.

I call Patti my Magical Pegasus, because she makes things happen behind the scenes in a way that feels like magic. Everyone needs a Patti in their business.”

—Marsha Shandur, Storytelling Coach, Speaker and CEO at Yes Yes Marsha

 “I have spent countless hours and more money than I care to think about with other so-called marketing agencies. After building frustration with the lack of conversion I was introduced to Patti and BizMagic.

Patti and her team ran a thorough audit and set me up with Megan, my client manager who has been supporting me for more than a year.

 BizMagic has been maintaining and upgrading my website, handling my social media while increasing my exposure. The best part is that unlike the other agencies I've worked with, my team at BizMagic gets my message and supports me in speaking to my audience.

Technology is overwhelming to me - no more because I have a team handling everything related to such. There have been issues needing troubleshooting and whereas I could have been totally thrown, I rest easy because I have a team to take care, not only of my business, but me too:)

I have recommended Patti and her team and will continue to do so.

I am so very grateful for their support and look forward to moving forward with BizMagic as my business goals evolve.”

—Mindy Gorman-Plutzer, Functional Nutrition and Eating Psychology Coaching, The Freedom Promise

“When I started this process, I had no idea where to begin.  Luckily, someone referred me to Patti.  She had the ability to see the vision of what I wanted, without me even being able to articulate it.  She truly has a gift!  As someone who is not super tech-savvy, Patti assisted me every step of the way and created a website that I absolutely love.  She was so patient and helpful throughout this process!“

—Alissa Aune, Therapist, Finding Your Unity

 "Patti and her team are super professional and fun to work with. They understand things smoothly on the technical side, and are really patient and kind when I don't :)) Patti has a way to make things understandable even for Biz rookies like me so we're able to keep things top notch and a great experience for my clients. Patti and crew are definitely a big part of my dream team!"

—Marina Tselner, Studio Art Heart

“Prior to signing up to have my website created by BizMagic, I’d had an older WordPress site built by another individual. The site had been starting to show ’signs of age’ in that my plug-ins were getting obsolete. My prior designer was not a clear communicator though, so didn't directly explain this — instead he charged me for a ‘patch job’ and then told me it wasn’t going to be effective and that ultimately I would need a new site. I hadn’t liked working with this developer all along as he was difficult to communicate with and even grew nasty towards me at the end, so I decided to seek someone new for this undertaking. I got two referrals from friends, but both of their price quotes were way beyond my modest budget. Then a third friend referred me to Patti, who was not only very friendly and easy to talk to in our free intro meeting, but also willing to accomodate my budget.

Right from the start I enjoyed Patti’s down-to-earth style of relating, and her sense of confidence in her work. In addition, she’d come highly recommended by a friend I trust, so I knew I was in great hands. I was also thrilled how Patti never pushed back or accused me of being ‘difficult’ (the way the prior designer did) when I sent multiple (probably way too many!) emails with my updated website materials and questions. She flowed with my style without ever making me feel bad, although she did make some clear requests afterwards about what would work best for her. Patti is both flexible, and good at stating boundaries clearly and without offense.

I love my new website - it’s beyond anything I could have imagined or designed on my own, and it’s easy to work with, with the clear tutorials Patti provided for me to make edits on my own. I would highly recommend BizMagic for website design and business growing services. They are relaxed, approachable, easy to work with, and clearly on top of their game!”

—Diana Badger, InSight Astrology Counseling and WordCraft Editorial Services

  “Thank you BizMagic for creating my solo theatre website! I wanted colors to match the burnt orange and teal in mythology paintings of Charon, ferryman between upper and lower worlds.

Was challenging to shape how I spent all my life deeply engaged with people's inner lives through recovery, therapeutic, spiritual, and writing communities and then craft them as fully embodied on stage.

Patti guided me so gently through the process.

After every performance of my initial run at The Marsh Theater in 2009, I was a raw peeled grape, and [as the stage manager] Patti took care of me. I privately considered her my angel. When the run closed, she gave me an angel plant.

I highly recommend her company especially for theatre artists' websites.”

—Kenny Yun, Theatre Director and Coach

 “Before working with BizMagic, the administrative and technical side of my business was time consuming and stressful. I would have to research options and read forums to decide on the best approach and then spend hours learning how to do things that I didn’t really want to learn. Once I began working with Patti and her team, things became so smooth and easy! They are super skilled and even when one person doesn’t know how to do something they are able to turn to their own team - the result is that they always figure it out and you don’t have to worry at all. Now I can focus on the things that only I can do, and hand over the tasks that take up too much time and energy for me. I would absolutely refer BizMagic to any entrepreneur or small business that need admin and tech support but isn’t ready to hire a full time staff.”

—Ginny Santos, CEO *Chief Engagement Orchestrator*, Neolé, Inc.

“Patti and the BizMagic team are INCREDIBLE to work with! They're proactive, savvy, and professional. Whenever I hand something off I know it will be done on schedule and well. Before working with them, I was overwhelmed and drained by all of the ongoing tasks and open projects it takes to run my business well. Keeping up was daunting if not impossible. I've had several VAs. BizMagic exceeds all expectations because of their exceptional client managers and smart processes. I barely had to lift a finger to get them up to speed in my business. While working with BizMagic, I've been able to double my client load, launch a course, and do it all without pulling my hair out. If you're an established business owner who needs a savvy assistant to help you quit being the bottleneck in your business, BizMagic is a must.”

—Hunter Welling, Luxury Marketing Consultant & Coach, The AgenShe

“Patti Meyer and her Biz Magic team are a powerful resource for any business looking for qualified, professional help. Hiring Patti was one of the best business decisions I made. Patti has helped my business run with little effort. Over the years she has helped with social media, podcast creation and distribution, implementing systems, creating powerpoint slides, technology, and so much more. If you're looking for a team you can trust run by an awesome and talented human being , hire Patti Meyer and the Biz Magic team!”

—Lisa Merlo-Booth, Transformational Relationships Coach, Speaker, and Author, The Rising, A Revolution for Women

“There is zero doubt that I would not be where I'm at in my business without Patti's help. She's been my business manager since March of 2020 - systems wiz, brainstorming partner, and true co-pilot. She makes it easy for me to ask for help; as someone who had been doing everything by myself for so many years, turning over certain tasks was like using a new muscle. At every turn Patti showed up as the patient, kind, skilled and trustworthy person that she is. I would highly recommend Patti and her BizMagic team for any project, big or small.”

—Allegra Stein, Mentor, Teacher, Champion of the Unknown

“I'm madly in love with my new website and I have Patti to thank for it! I had a really vague vision in my head for what I wanted, but I didn't have the time or skill to be able to pull it off myself. Not to mention I didn't know how to turn my ideas into something that would also be easy to navigate as a potential client. Not only am I beyond pleased with how it turned out, but everyone who sees it says it looks incredible. Patti has such a knack for taking a jumble of thoughts and turning them into something magnificent. Plus, not only did she make sure it was visually appealing, but she made sure all the back end tech was set up properly too. If you need a new website, definitely hire Patti! You'll be so glad you did.”

—Erika Tebbens, CEO & Founder, Erika Tebbens Consulting LLC

“Before working with Patti I WAS all over the place. I have so many elements of my business that require me to be hands on. There was no way for me to continue to take on administrative duties when I had little time and I was spending too much time trying to figure things out.

Working with Patti has allowed me to have more freedom to work with my clients and not have to worry about administrative details. I was able to expand my work schedule due to having more time to generate new clients and care for the ones that I currently have.

Patti has a great working knowledge of technology. She is efficient with time and she is also full of ideas. She also has a great personality. I continue to work with Patti due to the ease of working with her and she not only works for you, but she also works with you.

I would recommend Patti because of her professionalism, efficiency, and personality. I have [already] recommended Patti to some of my professional acquaintances.”

—Stephanie Michelle, Owner, Coach of Style

“I never have time to work on my website and because I don’t do it often it always takes me forever to make even simple changes. When I worked with BizMagic, I liked that I was able to give Patti a brief and leave her to it. Patti is excellent at figuring things out without needing a lot of input from me. I would absolutely recommend Patti; she is efficient and also uses her initiative when I’m not sure what I want or need. She also provides great value and tailors her services to your needs. My website got the makeover it needed with a new theme. Patti provided me with a training video that walked me through the process of the steps she took. I now feel confident in making additional changes myself. Instead of struggling with a task that is taking you away from what you should be doing, ask Patti for help. I’m glad I did.”

—Trish Taylor, Author

“BizMagic is awesome! They have helped me run my business more efficiently, implementing automation, simplifying our processes and doing all sorts of tasks for me so I can focus on what I need to. They are great. Would highly recommend them to any busy entrepreneur.”

—Janna Willoughby-Lohr, Owner & Artist, Papercraft Miracles

“My website was gorgeous in the year 1886. While still attractive in 2021, it needed a serious down-to-the-studs remake to more accurately represent what I currently do. I wanted a clean, smart, and intriguing online portfolio — and that's what I got. Working with Patti was a pleasure — she's a clear communicator, flexible designer, and hyper-organized businesswoman. Even when she had to nudge me for information (what can I say — I'm slow sometimes), she did it in a kind and caring way with tutorials that were super helpful! The result: an amazing new website and a renewed respect for Patti, who I've known for years!”

—Allison Landa, Writer, Teacher, Coach

“Working with Patti has been life changing for my business. She does exactly what she says she will do exactly when she says she will do it and typically exceeds expectations. That is not my typical experience with VA’s. I was lost before her. She not only provides incredible support but also educates me along the way. She is also kind and incredibly easy to work with. I couldn’t recommend her highly enough.”

—Courtney Spencer, Owner, Courtney Spencer Coaching

“I‘ve worked with Patti for two years, which tells you that I am very satisfied and intend to continue. Before I met Patti, I often felt overwhelmed with the endless tasks I had to accomplish on my own. It was all consuming and left me little time to focus on my zone of genius.

Working with Patti on an ongoing basis has been a game changer for me and it’s such a pleasurable joy to work with her. Patti is very professional and super efficient. She is up to date with the different online platforms and is always eager to dive in and learn about the latest online apps. She is creative and such a wonderful ally to have in developing my business. She also cares deeply about each one of her clients.

If you know you have an important message to share with the world and you want to increase your influence and impact, then you want Patti and her team to help you do all the backend work, so that you can focus on sharing your products and services with the world.”

—Anna Gatmon, Spiritual Innovator and Teacher, Expansive with Anna Gatmon

“Patti is freaking awesome! I had been procrastinating switching email providers for months before I found Patti. She made everything seamless and easy I’ve really appreciated [her] personal agency through this process. Not only that, she also rejigged a few behind-the-scenes admin things on my website that I'd put together with duct tape and wishes. It was such a relief to be able to hand over an overwhelming project I had no time for, and know that I was being taken care of the whole time.”

—Helen Tremethick, Brand Voice Strategist & Thought Partner for Badass Entrepreneurs

"I first learned about Patti and BizMagic from a raving review posted on Facebook from a client she previously worked with ... I immediately knew I wanted to work with her. Patti took my visions, ideas for my site and brought a brand new website to life. I had not wanted to send anyone to see the previous website I had before and now I encourage people to go to my site with pride. Not only did she create an amazing site, she also created logos for me that are creative and unique.

I highly recommend Patti and BizMagic to anyone ready to make your business stand out online. She is easy to work with, great at explaining the design process and overall a great person. I am beyond happy with my experience. Thank you Patti."

—Tisha Marina, I icho Peace

“Before working with Patti, I was overwhelmed. There are so many moving parts to get, different softwares to communicate and work well together. Patti's ability to do that one thing alone makes her priceless to me. 

In a nutshell, working with Patti is easy.  She’s quick, efficient, clearly communicates her ability and time availability and completes on or before promised. She never gets cranky or feels like she's overwhelmed. I tell her what I need, she gets it done. It’s pretty freaking awesome.

Since I started working with Patti, I have a new business goal: I want to pay her more money. Things that frustrated and created a huge time suck for me I've managed to let go of and let her handle. My time is used more efficiently and as a result I have less stress. I can't wait to be able to afford her more hours per week/month.

I’d absolutely recommend Patti. Solopreneurs are a perfect fit for her broad skill set.  We juggle a lot of balls and Patti is ready, willing and able to help us get through 30 foot swells towards calmer waters.  She has skills beyond that of an assistant and can help manage a variety of business situations.  She's thorough and great at looking at the big, complete picture to be sure my ass is covered.”

—Jodi Brown, Chef, Educator, Organizer, Jodi Brown CEO

“I was looking for an assistant and Patti was referred to me as a possible solution. And, yes, Patti has been a great solution to many gaps in my business that I was not keeping pace with: scheduling social media, returning client and patient phone calls and anything I can’t get to when I’m actually working with my clients. In my business, I need someone who can talk to people, sometimes in distress, and can gently explain my process and get any questions answered. My clients and patients also express that it feels like she cares about their well-being and is easy to work with. This is super important to me because no one cares more about your business than you and she is the next best thing! She has been fantastic and can’t think of anything I’ve asked her to do that she can’t do! That is such a big relief for me as a solopreneur. The only downside for me is forgetting to send her stuff to do! I highly recommend Patti.”

—Mary Morrison, MBA,LAc.,Dipl.Ac.(NCCAOM), Chinese Medical Practitioner, How You Heal

“Before I started working with Patti, I was so scattered and overwhelmed and everyday I felt dread trying to follow up on everything, plus see clients. It was a no win situation.

It’s a pleasure working with Patti. She is competent and responsible. She organizes and gives me great ideas to simplify and expedite my social media presence and database management. She is full of great ideas and willing to learn any new technology or software.

Since I started working with Patti, I am getting more done, I have more time for my life and I worry less, which is a big deal. I have time to devote to other aspects of my business now that my book is out. I also have a training business that is demanding and know that Patti is always there if something is needed.

I would highly recommend Patti and her services for organizing, making simple tasks automated, web design, marketing, social media…you name it she does it all.”

—Jan Bergstrom, LMHC, Therapist, Trainer, Author,

"Thank you for you support. I could never get this accomplished without your sensible, calm (and quick) professional assistance. Best decision ever to hire you!! You are an answer to my prayers!"

—Kristen Iuupenlatz, Owner, Pilates Home Practice

“I really enjoyed working with Patti, and not just because of her wonderful technical knowledge and artistic sense. She was very patient with me through all the challenges I had in envisioning changing and updating my web site. I do not have a good eye for visuals and she created a gorgeous, organized site that helps my audiences and peers get to know about me and my plays.

Patti also adapted well to my changing timelines and requests and everything was handled in a professional and very friendly manner! I was able to ask all the questions I had, with clear responses,  and wound up with exactly the site I needed!”

—Roberta D’Alois, Playwright, Teaching Artist, Artistic Director

"Seeking to up level your execution in record time? Patti can magically make it happen! ... She executes with high integrity, which is evidenced in her perceptiveness, resourcefulness, deep-level analysis, self-directedness, consultative inquiry, and active listening. Teaming with her allows me to delegate rote tasks and focus on sharpening my core competencies. I’m a starter and she’s my polisher. She also offers a different perspective and enables you to get unstuck and craft a brilliant solution ... Ever wonder how you are going to maintain A-level performance, on time, on budget, meet/exceed expectations without sacrificing a gym workout, date night, or a rainy Netflix binge in your sweats? In comes Patti! She assumes tasks with little or no direction and allows you to use your new found time to explore new systems and strategies and then practice them, covertly. Imagine, you can practice a new strategy without exposing your novice level to colleagues or clients!"

—Jacqueline McLaughlin, Founder, PHYREDUP

"Patti has worked for me for 6 plus years. She has become essential to the functioning of my business. Patti is very reliable, competent and easy to work with. I'm lucky to have her to help me."

—Joya Cory, Founder/Teacher, Full Spectrum Improvisation
