I started working with Danielle on a project that needed technical and marketing expertise. I loved Danielle’s energy and knew that she would be a good fit for my business from our first meeting. She was quick, efficient and able to do everything I asked (and more) to get my project sorted. Since then we have started working together on a retainer basis, focussing on the marketing strategies for my business and supporting my growth plans for the next year. Danielle is experienced, knowledgeable and – most importantly- fun to work with so that even when she’s nagging me about something I’ve forgotten I don’t mind! I would highly recommend Danielle to anyone looking for support and strategy for their business.

Danielle from Spinning Plates has been an absolute godsend to us at SEA. Organised, efficient, problem solving, responsive and creative; it has been a pleasure to work with her.

Danielle never says ‘I don’t know’; her approach is to find out whatever is needed to solve a problem and to do so quickly.

Everybody should have a Danielle in their lives.
— Lisa
Since engaging Danielle from Spinning plates she has transformed our social media presence within our company. Prior to Danielle coming on board, the posts didn’t flow, timings were wrong and it was wasn’t attracting the right clients. Since Danielle taken over, our social media channels have come to life, we are getting more likes, followers and engaging with the right clientele. I would recommend Danielle to any company, small or large, her communication, vision and design is second to none!
— Matt, JoNs
Danielle appeared like an angel 👼 just at the time that I needed her.
She now works as an OBM in my business. She reminds me of priorities and holds me accountable.
Danielle is also fun to work with and totally gets my musical 🎶 references. 🤩
She is really helping me ‘spin those plates!’
— Kellie
Danielle has been SUPER efficient and beyond helpful for me and my clients recently. I am so grateful I found her she is making my life so much easier and she is an absolute whizz on mailchimp which I am not!
— Gemma
Danielle was able to step in quickly and cover our social media accounts when our social media guru went off on long term sick leave. Coming as a recommendation from one of our suppliers we knew we could trust her to take over our posts and reply to any comments or messages. She did a great job on our 2 Facebook and 2 Instagram accounts keeping them active and engaging to our global audiences.
— Chrissy
I love Danielle’s no-nonsense approach to helping me and my business. She’s quick, efficient and super-versatile! She’s also so much more than a virtual PA, thanks to her corporate career history and how commercially-minded she is. In my opinion, every business owner needs a “Danielle” in their life and I would have absolutely no hesitation in recommending her to anyone who needs an extra pair of hands at work.
— Rebecca
Danielle has consistently outperformed our expectations, Danielle is currently heading up our marketing department; by outsourcing our marketing to Danielle at Spinning Plates, this has enabled us to concentrate on other areas of the business. Danielle has always been quick to react to our needs, with targeted campaigns which has been very well received by our client base.

Currently we are expanding Danielle’s marketing role with our larger clients, to give a targeted response to social media campaigns, which our clients like working with a high proficient company.

I would strongly recommend Danielle (Spinning Plates) marketing services to you.

We have been working for several years on the development of the NotesVilla brand, an educational platform for students in higher education. Recently, Danielle Thompson of Spinning Plates provided us with considerable commercial and commercial support. Building on her expertise, Danielle has developed an aggressive and exciting marketing plan that targets our core audience.

Danielle’s experiences and credentials have certainly contributed to NotesVilla’s success, from her professionalism, willingness to serve, and speak on NotesVilla’s behalf played a central role in the company’s decision to offer her a position as our head of Business and Marketing.
I, along with the rest of the NotesVilla team, want to express our gratitude for the time and support she gave us.

Danielle’s perspective and encouragement mean a great deal to me and the NotesVilla team.
Thank you for all that you have done
— Zain, NotesVilla
We were recommended to contact Danielle, to advise on the setting up of an online platform and we are extremely grateful for all her practical advice. We were taken aback that she could untie the Gordian knot of impossible spreadsheets with ease, making the consultancy an absolute pleasure. Plain speaking, efficient and with a wonderful personality, what more could you wish for!
— Linzi Russell-Watson, ArtPress
What a find! Danielle came recommended to us and we’ve been thrilled with everything she has done. We’ve established a manageable social media strategy under her direction and have regular positive progress reviews. Danielle knows what she is talking about and has helped with our understanding of social media and what it can deliver for our business. She loves making a list, delegating jobs and keeps an eye on progress. Very likeable, efficient and proactive. Thank You!
— Gill Marchbank. Company Director. Opticaid UK
Danielle is that one person who makes learning easy and fun. Her vast knowledge is neither intimidating or judgemental and I have loved working with her.
— Caroline
Working with Danielle has been amazing. We wanted a certain tone for our marketing which was important to all directors involved in the business. Danielle was able to listen to our brief, take on our constructive feedback and absolutely nail what we were after.

Since our company has been live she has been an integral cog in our marketing. Taking on tasks promptly and efficiently. I cannot recommend Danielle enough a true diamond to find.
— Kay
As a small business owner who wears several hats, constantly switching from one to the others, I finally conceded defeat and considered a virtual PA. I don’t have enough time to give to a full-time PA, so after Danielle was recommended to me by another client, a quick chat made me realise that the things that grind me down, e.g. bookkeeping and market research, are things I can and should relinquish control of.

Danielle has taken these two tasks from me, lightening my workload considerably and freeing my mind to concentrate on client management, raising invoices and strategic planning. Thank you Danielle, you have made a big impact on my working day; I would recommend you to anyone in a similar situation.
— Simon Pryce, Skylight Media
An angel sent from Heaven!
That’s a great description for Danielle from Spinning plates.

We clicked on our first meeting and I have never looked back!
Organised, self-motivated and professional are just three words that immediately come to mind when I think about Danielle.

My business would not be where it is today without the services from Spinning Plates!
— Sue, Miss Teddy Ltd
As Director of Lamplight IT Services, I’ve have utilised the Spinning Plates service for two years to manage my back-office financial, travel and web services.
Working with Danielle, I have always found the service efficient, timely and responsible and highly recommend the Spinning Plates’ service.
— Director, Lamplight IT
Danielle has been working with me in my business for over a year. I don’t know how I would manage without her. I appreciate her common sense and attention to detail. No job is too big or too small and it is all done with kindness and humour
— Amanda Harris, ALH Legal
Having Danielle help me with setting up an accounts spreadsheet to help me keep my home and rental property budgets in order was a great experience. I had never worked with a personal assistant before and the benefit of having Danielle by my side guiding me through my budget was fantastic. She kept me on target ( I have a tendency to drift when dealing with accounts) until we finished the task. Danielle was methodical, thorough, encouraging and funny. She gave great advice where I could budget and save money. She sent through my completed accounts spreadsheets so I can keep up-to-date with my accounts and budgeting. She even added budgeting advice which I have followed. Thank you Danielle, you are a star.
— Donna, Southwell

— Paige Davis, Slimtini Weekender
Spinning Plates PA Service has been aGodsend. I hired Danielle/Spinning Plates late last year to help get my ever growing business organized, as well as market research for various things. I run a dance school, with holiday clubs and parties too so as you can imagine the paper work is endless. Danielle spent her time fixing me up a neat spread sheet and mailshot account, which has made my life and time in the business a whole lot more efficient. This is something I had been meaning to get round to for ages, in fact it was on the weekly to do list for about 2 years! The relief of handing this over was massive, giving me more chance to focus on other areas of my business. This was all completed really quickly. She has also provided such strong links and research into my premises searching thatIi can not fault her. It may seem like a pricey thing to take on but when you need the help it is vital, Danielle has a mass of contacts and knowledge in her field that the cost is not worth debating. Well worth it and I will be using her services for the foreseeable future, I really rate her work and what she has done for me.
— Charlotte Stripling, Simply Dance
I have been working with Danielle for a few months now on a fixed weekly retainer. The great thing about this is that I know what I’m spending each week and I can offload a large part of my weekly to do list with the confidence that it will get done quickly, efficiently and with plenty of communication. Danielle has willingly carried out each task and her dedication to achieving results is second to none, the saving in my time alone is around 30% which really adds to my own productivity. I really cannot tell you how much my life has changed since I engaged Danielle and I wouldn’t look back now!
— Kelly Taylor, Taylor's Cottages
Danielle is my ‘Organised Angel with personality’! I run 3 very demanding businesses and at one stage felt very overwhelmed. I met Danielle for a coffee and by the time I had finished my compulsory slab of cake, she had already sorted out one area of my business life that was causing me concern. By the time I sat down at the end of a long day at home, she had e-mailed me the completed business document we had only discussed that afternoon. That is service for you! In a life where I have so many idea’s to move my businesses forward, I find it essential to have Danielle help me follow through the process to the end result (sometimes us creative types don’t always manage that). I have since dropped many other pieces of last minute work onto her very capable lap and have NEVER been disappointed with the outcome. It is also refreshing to speak to someone equally creative and business minded who will suggest alternative methods and plans to make my life easier and business more profitable. She has been my little secret up until now, but it is time to share the Spinning Plates magic with all those other ‘busy’ people! Thank you so much Danielle.

I’ve been using Danielle’s PA services for a few months now. I usually manage my own telephone enquiries and emails, but of late this has been getting increasingly more difficult due to the level of demand for my treatments. I run an extremely busy Irritable Bowel Syndrome, Digestive Health and Gut Disorders Clinic in Nottingham, and I was finding that I had to catch up with my phone calls and emails late in the evening. Not ideal, as I do like people to get acknowledgement of an enquiry as soon as possible. Danielle is great. I email her my enquiries and she telephones them on my behalf. It has made life much easier for me, knowing that someone professional and efficient is dealing with these enquiries. Danielle also wrote me a poem. This is going to appear in my e-book. It’s a great poem, but you’re going to have to wait until my e-book is published before you can read the it. Danielle has many strings to her bow, and I’m delighted to have met her through the Aspiring Business Women group.
— Linda Booth, Nottingham Colonic & Hydrotherapy Clinic
I am so glad that I took the plunge and contacted Danielle. I’d been procrastinating for while but now I feel as though a weight has been lifted from my shoulders. Danielle insisted on meeting me face to face which demonstrated to me that she cared and during this meeting I hardly seemed to start a sentence and she knew exactly what I was looking for! Now that I have Danielle to deal with all the stuff that I avoided, I can get on with the stuff I’m good at! I feel so much more relaxed about my business its the best investment I ever made! Plus she’s quite honest and frank and that’s exactly what I need!
— Misia Smith, Soothe Therapy
Danielle came into my life out of chance and I am so glad she did. I run 3 businesses and she came along and made sense of them all and how I need to ‘finish’ each business off as they were ‘gaps’ with how I had conducted my businesses. She is very calm and sees the overall picture very clearly. Her business knowledge is simply embedded within her and she seems to have a resolution to every problem I faced. Danielle will remain working closely with me and she is just the ‘breath of fresh air’ I needed to help manage my businesses as well as take off massive pressure I was feeling. I cannot thank her kind nature and business knowledge enough as I now feel I can go further, faster! Thank you Danielle

I think [Danielle] is the most efficient person I’ve ever met!
— Nickie Elenor, Your HR Lawyer
Danielle sorted out my media contact database. I had been gathering contacts for years while working as a freelancer in marketing but couldn’t seem to find the time while juggling projects and clients to consolidate everything into a useful database. She listened to exactly what I wanted and delivered. Quick, easy, painless and a job ticked off the list! Thank you
