Success Stories from Leaders Like You
After a long time managing everything on my own in the startup world, I realized I needed help. My EA has been amazing in managing my calendar, travel plans, T&E, and other small yet time-consuming tasks. We had morning check-ins at the beginning that paid off well. Now, I can much better focus on growing the business.
I used to manage my own travel, emails, and calendar-even while running multiple businesses. Then my EA (Romina) stepped in. She’s proactive, reliable, and keeps everything running smoothly without me having to ask. Our daily check-ins keep me on top of things, and her inbox summaries are a lifesaver when I’m traveling. I finally have the headspace to focus on what matters.
My EA, Petra, has been very helpful during a particularly chaotic time in one of my businesses. With minimal guidance, she quickly adapted, proactively started searching for solutions, and delivered results. I love how I can just ping her on WhatsApp, and things get done seamlessly.
My EA doesn’t just complete tasks; she proactively identify and solve potential issues before they become problems. Whether it’s a scheduling conflict or a looming deadline, my EA is always one step ahead, saving me countless headaches.
Hiring a Donna EA has been incredibly cost-effective. Instead of multiple full-time employees for various tasks, my EA handles everything efficiently. The savings have allowed us to reinvest in other critical areas. It’s the perfect solution for top-notch support without breaking the bank.

Donna’s personalized service is evident in every interaction. My EA knows my preferences and anticipates my needs, making my day-to-day operations run smoothly. It’s the small, thoughtful touches that make all the difference.
Since hiring a Donna EA, I save 15 hours a week on administrative tasks. Now I can focus that time on preparing our quarterly strategy sessions and mapping out our expansion into two new markets. That shift has had a huge impact on both my personal productivity and our company’s growth.
"My mindset before was that I need to do it all… it was slowing me down and costing my business money."
My mindset before was that I need to do it all… it was slowing me down and costing my business money. Working with my EA allowed me to focus on new business opportunities that I didn’t have time for earlier, and it directly impacted my business growth.
DonnaPro doesn’t just connect you with an assistant and walk away. They constantly recruit, train, and equip their personnel. When our assistant showed up, she was ready not to learn, but to lead. We didn’t have to recruit, train, or worry about compliance—we just had to plug her into our work.
As a CEO working with high-profile clients and large companies, confidentiality is non-negotiable. My Donna EA regularly handles contracts with sensitive details and has helped me manage communications with absolute discretion. The peace of mind this level of trust provides allows me to focus on expanding my client base and delivering impactful coaching sessions.
Saga adapted quickly to a new country, industry, and way of working—impressive, especially since I’m new to working with an assistant. She brings real care to everything she does, and I genuinely see long-term potential. She’s quickly become a key part of how I work day to day.
Before DonnaPro, our internal reporting was a mess of spreadsheets. Our assistant didn’t just take over the task; she proactively designed and implemented a new, streamlined system that saved us hours each week. She didn’t just do the work—she fundamentally improved the process for everyone. That’s a level of value I did not expect.
The real benefit wasn’t just getting tasks off my plate; it was finally being able to take a proper vacation without checking my phone every 30 minutes. The peace of mind that comes from knowing things are being handled intelligently and proactively is priceless. For the first time in years, I could completely disconnect, which has been crucial for preventing burnout.
We were at a point where we had to turn down new projects because I was completely bogged down by administrative bottlenecks. Bringing on our assistant through DonnaPro was the key to unlocking our growth. Sophie’s support directly enabled us to take on three new clients in the first quarter alone. She isn’t just an assistant; she’s a direct contributor to our scalability.

Snippets of Love: Real Messages Our Assistants Receive Daily
We often celebrate the big wins — but it’s the quiet messages of relief, trust, and gratitude that truly define the success of our virtual assistant agency.
These aren’t polished testimonials.
They’re real moments, shared in the middle of the day, in a Slack message, WhatsApp or quick email.
And they mean the world.
I really have to honestly tell you that I’m super, super, super happy we’re working together. I’m also thrilled that you’re asking these big-picture questions. In my experience, an executive assistant typically wouldn’t even need to ask these kinds of things for processes to run smoothly. So honestly, hats off to you for asking them. I’m genuinely happy to answer all your questions, and it’s an absolute pleasure to work with you. So really, thumbs up—hats off!
You’ve been an enormous help so far. You’re my therapist. Thank you for everything. Everything that is moving now, it’s because you took off a shitload of workload. The value in you is great.
LinkedIn is fantastic – good job and thank you very much! Looks so much better. And congrats on the whole SherWeb project – I know it was challenging but you were persistent. Amazing job.
You prepared it really well, everything is visible inside, which is great.
I really like how you put together a team-building plan. Thank you!
I really like the questions you had. They definitely show how you are trying to really get a handle on the flow of things in terms of task management and then everything else. That’s really great.
I’m still stuck sometimes in micromanaging mode and you’re already being very proactive with lots of stuff. That’s exactly what I’m looking for. Thank you for saving me from myself.
I see, regarding the inbox, you’ve basically cleaned up the entire thing.
You have done some great things since we work together!
I’m deeply impressed with the onboarding process. Yesterday, I was showing my friend at the gym that you guys actually sent me a book as a welcome gift. I found it incredibly thoughtful.
The inbox has certainly gotten smaller looking, you are doing a very good job keeping up with it. It is great because that was one of the big nightmares in my life.
Looking back now, I realize there’s not much clutter in my email anymore. Everything feels organized, and I’m on top of things—which is great. It makes me feel like I have the space to focus on other tasks or delegate more. Over the past few days, we’ve started delegating responsibilities like PR and investment outreach. I definitely feel like I’m in a much better place now.
We have actually gotten on top of this whole email thing, which is great! That did not take long. It’s super.
You are really needed! We can already see a difference.
Thank you again for all your support with this situation today, I really appreciate it! You’ve helped me to process this constructively and calm down in my reaction, which was a huge help.
Well, I was delighted being away. I did not feel much pressure at all because everything is kind of under control, which is great. Thanks for that.
I feel like I am catching up on everything. Putting my to do-list in the meeting description of my focus blocks has really helped.
This is great Petra, just reviewed, thanks a lot for your help here! Will add only a few a minor adjustments, but overall it’s 95% ready to publish. Great stuff, thanks again! And thanks again for the help with T&Cs and stripe.
I have to say that, generally, I’ve got very high faith, trust and confidence in you- which I have to say feels fantastic Saga, so please keep doing that!
That’s really helpful in terms of you suggesting these things to me also. And you’ve identified a couple of new things there that will really make a difference, so I’m really grateful to you for that.
Thank you. I really appreciate all the work that you do. I find that sometimes we forget to celebrate the wins and the things that we’ve already been doing because we’re always looking forward to the things that haven’t been done yet, and that can get a little bit dangerous. So thank you very much. I hope that things just keep going the way that they are. We value you extremely, and I hope that you’re happy, too.
