SEO is a term thrown around a lot these days as the power of search grows, but what is SEO actually?
Follow your own path – sounds corny but it’s true – some people struggle to understand the fact I turned my back on a profession I had studied and worked so hard to get into.

Heather Gibson
Finer Details
Like many others Heather Gibson was challenged with life as a working wife and mother, learning to juggle the multitude of commitments and errands and spending less time to “smell the roses.
Throughout Heather’s career she experienced an array of industries and positions including PA, Operations Manager, Hospitality, Business Owner and an assortment of administrative and service roles. Having worked in remote locations and also travelled regularly for work Heather understands the need for someone to help with daily errands and tasks when you can’t always be around. Heather’s love of organisation and helping others has been applied and developed over many years and she realised that performing these roles was what gave her the most enjoyment and satisfaction.
Happiest when she is researching, planning, organising and assisting people, Heather recognised that there would be many singles, couples, families, and small businesses that would benefit from having their very own Personal Concierge, hence a new chapter began.
