“She Demonstrated her versatility and overall business experience.”
Warren Robbins, Partner and General Manager – Team Scarab Inc. (Offshore race boats) http://www.teamscarab.com , SCARIB Inc. (Rigid Inflatable boats), Marine Propulsion Inc. (Marine gear boxes), Fiberglass materials consultant US Navy CCM project.
In 2010 I was asked by an old friend to help her build or locate a boat to be used as a platform for a purposed airline diving excursion. Although my partner and I are semi retired we still have the molds for 34’ and 52’ rigid inflatable boats (trade name SCARIB) we built for dive and snorkel excursion operators in Hawaii and the Caribbean in the 1990-2000 period. After consulting with our naval architect and fiberglass contractor it was decided to build a dedicated craft. Janice was the executive assistant and virtual assistant to the founder of the excursion concept. I had the pleasure of working closely with her on the development of the company. With her engineering background she was a tremendous asset to the enterprise in sourcing equipment for the operation. She built the financial spreadsheets that demonstrated the profitability of the operation. She was able to locate and decipher the legal and tax regulations for operating in Honduras and negotiated with the local marine officials. Janice communicated with the Cruise Lines operating in Roatan (an island off the coast of Honduras) to get accurate passenger counts (2 mil per year) and negotiate the Cruise Line royalty for selling the excursion. Janice found and arranged for insurance that covered the operation and the Cruise Lines requirements. This was no small task since the insurance companies required the professional divers who accompany the excursion participants and the operation be certified by an International dive organization and this excursion was a new concept and had no applicable certifying organization. Janice wrote much of and produced the business plan for the Corporation. I have recounted all these divergent tasks Janice preformed to demonstrate her versatility and overall business experience. I can recommend her without reservation.

Janice has been on board with me as our virtual assistant since Dec. 2012 in providing multiple administrative services, monthly enewsletter, social media, bookkeeping, as well as updating products sold online, webinars & seminars, and content management for my websites. Janice consistently goes beyond what is expected, She is a very conscientious person with a can-do attitude that I can count on. Her wealth of knowledge in doing internet research and analytical skills has saved our office time and money! It is a pleasure working with Janice and would highly recommend using Bizy Biz Virtual Assistant Services
“Janice takes care of all that research stuff for me, so I am free to create and post on my website.”

I hired Janice Hurlburt from Bizy Biz Virtual Assistant to help me launch a wordpress web site (http://MeilaniMacDonald.com). I wanted a site to which I could easily post my content, but I really hate dealing with back-end stuff like working with my host agency and setting up the site, researching the best plugins to manage spam, making sure backups are working, researching and posting legal disclaimers, etc.
Janice takes care of all of that stuff for me so I am free to create and post content valuable to my audience. Janice is always meticulous in her research and offers me options. She pointed me to some great videos that quickly and easily taught me how to create and arrange my menus and make posts in WordPress, so I can add sections to my site when needed.
It’s just like she says…she takes care of the tasks I don’t want to do or have time for, so I can do the parts I enjoy without stressing. I am so happy I connected with Janice and BizyBizVA!

I have had the pleasure of knowing and working with Janice Hulburt for several months as my partners and I have been in the process of starting up our new business, Silicon Springs Ventures. Janice attended our first Desert Tech Meet-Up in July 2013 and reached out to our President and COO, Joel Fashingbauer, following that event to offer her services on a voluntary basis for a few months to help us get organized, find new office space, and other administrative tasks.
I have found Janice to be a hard worker who has taken on a variety of types of work, with a can-do attitude to learn and achieve and succeed. She has represented our efforts well and I am happy to offer my recommendation to prospective clients. As the General Manager of CBS Local 2 until the station’s sale in February, 2012, as well as past Chairman of CVEP, I have had the opportunity to work with many folks in the Coachella Valley with all levels of professionalism and in my opinion, Janice is among the very best on that list. www.siliconsprings.com
