Virtual Assistance for Creative Founders

I take care of the parts of your business that feel overwhelming, so you can focus on the work you love

Virtual Assistance & OPS Support
FOR freelancers & FOUNDERS

Hi, I’m Elizabeth

Have a brain overflowing with ideas but struggling to know where to begin? I’ve run my own design studio for over a decade, so I know how overwhelming it can feel trying to do everything yourself.

That’s why I founded Odette: to offer one-to-one virtual assistant support to creatives who need help. Whether it’s admin, planning, prioritising, research, or simply someone to bounce ideas off, I’m here to create the space that allows you to feel more joyful in your work.

Based in beautiful Brighton, I work with clients across the UK and internationally.

Who I help

  • Videographers who are too busy editing to remember to invoice.

  • Solo founders who feel overwhelmed by everything that needs doing in a day.

  • Photographers who struggle to stay on top of their admin tasks and always feel behind.

  • Neurodivergent founders who prefer the creative work over the draining business side of things.

  • Graphic designers who need help putting systems in place that actually make life easier.

  • Writers struggling with structuring their day and knowing what to prioritise.

  • Brand designers who need someone to bounce ideas off and brainstorm with.

  • Digital designers who need help with things like marketing, mailouts, or staying consistent.

The good news? You don’t have to do it on your own anymore.

I work with the creative people who run things solo, the intrepid souls who think differently.
