Being busy does not always mean real work. The object of all work is production or accomplishment and to either of these ends there must be forethought, system, planning, intelligence and honest purpose, as well as perspiration. Seeming to do is not doing.

About Me
Chantal Waterson
I like to think of myself as a bit of a real-life MacGyver.
Depending on the moment, I’m a wife, a mom, a businesswoman, a chef, a taxi driver, an interior decorator, and a design lover. I’ve built businesses, homes, and traveled the world while raising a family. I've been through the highs and lows that life throws at us.
So, what does this mean for you and your business? It means I get it. I understand the incredible highs and the tough lows that come with being a business owner. I know how it feels to be swamped by work and pulled in every direction. I’ve felt the urge to hand off all the “business stuff” so I could focus on the creative side. And I know how important it is to find someone you can trust who will love your business as much as you do.
My work philosophy is simple: everything should be done correctly, and just as importantly, beautifully. With years of experience as an account manager in advertising agencies, I have a sharp eye for detail. I make sure all tasks are completed accurately, efficiently, and with care. Plus, my creative side will ensure your business stays on-trend and presents a clear, cohesive message to potential clients.
When I help my clients, they get back the stability they need to focus on growth and creativity. Imagine having that same passion for your business that you had on day one!

Testimonials
The word around town...
Kate Richardson
Career Strategist - Kate Richardson.co
I've been working with Chantal for several months, and I can honestly say she has had a big impact on my business.
She's got the goods when it comes to creative and tech support. She's ridiculously efficient, on top of all the platforms and has a fabulous design eye to boot. She's ironed out a few kinks and solved more than one techy issue for me!
I feel a lot more confident in my business (and in using Kajabi) having her on board.
Tara Walsh
President - The Lashpreneur LLC
I can't recommend Chantal enough!
If ever there were a swiss army knife of VA's - that would be her official job description!
She's super savvy with project management, product launches, ConvertKit, Leadpages, Kajabi, WordPress, SamCart, Canva, a stellar Graphic Designer, and someone who looks at a marketing funnel and goes "I got this!".
She is a true team player, a fantastic communicator, she goes above and beyond the expectations of the role, and the only reason I stopped using her after two years of working together is I'm moving to an in-person team. I have enjoyed working so closely with her and she will be sorely missed!
Tricia Mauger
Director - Planted Parenting
This dream woman takes the heart you have behind an idea and can transform it efficiently into a sleek, sophisticated and functional outcome.
Creative genius - YES!Excellence in all she creates - YES!
She's my go-to every time! From web campaigns, web design, resource production, and social media rebranding...nothing is too hard for Chantal.
Danielle Greason
Digital Marketing Consultant - Greason Media
Every single web page, social media graphic, eCommerce storefront or piece of content that Chantal creates is always of the highest quality standard, in terms of both accuracy and design.
It's not always practical to have a graphic designer coordinating with your VA on every piece of content, day in and day out. That's why I think it's such a huge win to work with a VA like Chantal who's constantly keeping up to date with design trends as the online world evolves. She can figure out the visual elements that are needed in any scenario and then create those to match perfectly, within her content editing, scheduling workflow.Let's chat!
