YOU CAN'T COMPETE WITH ME. I WANT YOU TO WIN TOO.

I'm Lauren, a virtual business support system for small business owners who want to take back their time and accomplish more.

I am the laughter-filled founder of this little slice of virtual heaven, and I love it when a plan comes together.

Based in beautiful Durban, South Africa, I wanted to take ownership of my life by investing in myself. 

In 2018 – after many years spent working in hospitality and tourism, and a deep dive in the corporate world – I armed myself with a laptop, a fibre connection and as much determination as I could muster. I trusted myself and decided to become my own best boss.

Now I help small business owners like you with a variety of services so that you can be more productive in the areas most important to you.
