A little background…

For over 25 years owner, Cheryl Wegmann, has built a solid reputation working with Fortune 500 companies, Chairperson(s) of the Board, Senior Vice Presidents, Managing Directors, and CEOs.

Cheryl has spent the majority of her career working in various key executive administrative roles for a well known, global, high caliber, management consulting firm. This experience has provided the foundation for her unequivocal expertise in a client-driven service industry.

One of the many tools recognized in management consulting is leadership development - encompassing problem solving, presentation, and strategic thinking. Working with teams of consultants and clients in different geographic locations and delivering high value-added results to clients is a basic ingredient for success. Cheryl continues that tradition with Ancher Virtual Assistant.

Formerly, as sole proprietor of a medical transcription service, Cheryl had subcontracts with several major hospitals in the Chicago and suburban area, as well as with the Cook County Medical Examiner’s Office.

Ancher has been built with a reputation as an honest, reliable, and professional resource.

Excellent customer service – a specialty!

Why Ancher?

Building Strong, Lasting Relationships is Key!

Ancher Virtual Assistant – so much more than a secretary!

My mission is to build long lasting professional relationships through a highly collaborative, team-oriented approach in working with peers, clients, vendors, and organizations.

I allocate my time and resources on building your business! If you are successful then I am successful!

I do not make cold sales or marketing calls. Rather, I focus on value creation within your organization – leveraging, optimizing, and building upon your network of internal or external constituencies (enterprise relationship management).

I prefer to work with a select few clients, offering a high value add quality service and consistent end product.

The workday could just be starting at 5 p.m., or a client deliverable requires working all day Saturday and Sunday to deliver first thing Monday morning – this is the norm and not the exception!

I know what it takes to assist the busy executive in a 24/7 global corporate environment – all while maintaining a professional “can do” attitude. My job is in assisting you to develop and implement extraordinary results – regardless of industry or service.

Benefits
 
With my service I invoice you as a subcontractor, eliminating the necessity for you to provide corporate benefits (disability insurance / healthcare / 401K) and there is no additional bookkeeping required for state or federal tax withholding.

I do not outsource any of my client work. In the rare case I need additional assistance to complete a research project or mailing, you deal directly with me – you do not have to deal with a third party or intermediary and explain it all over again!

Because I manage your administrative tasks it gives you more time to focus on the core priorities in growing your business. And, working together as a strong team, the results you realize are a positive return on your investment.

Fees
 
No contracts to sign
No benefits to be paid

Fees are typically charged by the hour. However, depending on the type of project/task to be undertaken, I offer a monthly retainer (a set fee regardless of hours) or a competitively priced minimum/maximum hours per week. On straight typing projects I charge by the line for transcription.
Expenses are to be reimbursed at actual cost with your prior written approval for expenditures.

Ancher will provide you with a monthly statement of time spent on all activity and how time was utilized. There is no upfront financial commitment on your part. With no risk or “pay as you go” services, you will soon realize all the benefits that adding Ancher Virtual Assistant to your arsenal is a very wise choice indeed!
