As I’ve always said our main role as assistants is to free up time in our executive’s day so that they can focus on the big stuff. There are so many ways we can help them with this from managing their calendar effectively, minimising interruptions and generally keeping them on track. Business travel.

What started out as a two-week assignment ended up lasting for seven years! Three months later I selected the location, negotiated the lease, remodeled the space and purchased new furniture, office equipment, and supplies. Our role is no longer confined to typing letters, answering the phone, scheduling meetings and travel.

Pretty much the only event on the calendar that rivals the Cannes Lions is the Cannes Film Festival. The airport is 40 minutes from Cannes by road, and you can jump in a taxi, organise a transfer prior to travelling, or hire a car. Instead, relish the opportunity to switch off for a second, and soak up the atmosphere.

Any time I feel like I need to create a special notebook or folder for information, I ask myself if what I’m looking to organize would be better set up in Trello. Travel Planning. You can even use it to track your budget as you’re traveling by entering in actual numbers on the go. The set up is simple (and frankly, kind of fun)!

Time management skills A person who doesn't manage their time properly will be overwhelmed by the amount of work that piles up. For example, answering phones, taking messages, purchasing office equipment, working with relevant software and filing paperwork. An office manager is responsible for overseeing every aspect of an office.

If you have a business partner but not an office manager, divide up responsibilities. I know they have fascinating and important information in them, but you don’t have time to read them and keep up with what came in today. Whether you shred or not is up to you. This really helps things not fall through the cracks.

Once a date is finalized I put it in my bosss calendar and confirm the meeting with the other participants. Another benefit to writing it down is if your boss asks you to cancel it or to quickly tell you when the meeting is, you can look at the sheet rather than trying to search for it in your calendar. Minute taking made easier.

Look at any movie collection and it will no doubt be packed with stories of up and coming people toppling the big and powerful. Rather than reaching out to potential customers through social media, they favor a mass media approach — banner ads, pop-ups, and email lists. Big spenders do not look in small places.

Showing an attractive lady looking and feeling confident in a swimsuit tells you very little about the details of how the product works pharmaceutically, but it very clearly demonstrates the end goal and why the viewer should make a purchase.

Try to set up the communication of the office so your boss checks their own emails and responds, but you are in charge of all the mtg coordination, phones, and anything that happens in the office.
