Fractional Executive Assistant · Websites · Graphic Design
Take it off your plate.
I'm Jonathan. I take whole problems off the desks of small business owners who are too busy to fix the things that keep them busy: the follow-ups, the spreadsheets, the automation, the AI, the inbox. And when you need a website or graphic design, I handle that too.
More than a virtual assistant. Hourly, with no retainer and no minimum term.
I take a limited number of clients. There are only so many hours in the day, and only one of me.
You know what needs fixing. You just don't have time to fix it.
You know part of your business could run on autopilot. You know that spreadsheet should be a dashboard. You know the follow-ups are slipping, the website needs attention, and the brochure is out of date. But you're the one answering the phone, running the crew, and putting out fires, so the systems never get built.
That isn't a discipline problem. It's a bandwidth problem, and it's the one I solve. Whatever you can take off your own plate, hand it to me.
What I take off your plate
From the spreadsheets to the website to the trade show booth: small, recurring tasks and big, tangled problems alike.
Reports, Spreadsheets & Dashboards
Excel and Access expertise that turns messy data into something you can use.
AI Integration
Practical AI built into how you actually work, not a buzzword bolted on.
Marketing Automation
The email sequences and workflows you've been meaning to build.
CRM Cleanup
Duplicate, stale, and half-entered records turned into a list you can trust.
Vendor & Project Management
I chase the printers, the developers, and the deadlines so you don't have to.
Calendar & Inbox
Triage, drafts, replies, and a calendar that runs itself.
Websites
A website that works as hard as you do, and stays that way after launch.
Design & Build
Built around how your business actually works, not a template stretched to fit.
Reliable Hosting & Maintenance
Kept fast, secure, and up to date, with a person to call when something breaks.
Privacy & Accessibility Compliance
Helping your site keep pace with today's privacy and accessibility expectations.
Graphic Design
Logos, brochures, trade show booths, and everything in between. Everything is checked at least three times by three different people before it reaches you.

What it looks like in practice
Two real examples, with the names left out.
From Forty Hours to Four
A client was facing a 40-hour project every quarter: copying and pasting exported data from his WooCommerce custom fields, one by one, to build a custom report not included in the software. The custom fields complicated reporting greatly, and his previous web team offered zero help.
I built a small custom tool that exported a simple spreadsheet that he could filter in seconds, then a print-ready report that looked clean and professional. Forty hours became about four, and the client couldn't be happier.
An estimate that isn't a guess
A cleaning company owner generated estimates on-the-fly while walking through facilities with his customers. His estimates created all manner of financial difficulties as scope changed or customers negotiated custom rates that left him pricing by instinct instead of data.
The math was complicated: time, fuel, cleaning solution per square foot, tax laws across states, and much more.
I built him a calculator he can type into on the spot. Now he knows his real expenses before he says a number out loud and can negotiate confidently without risking his margin.
How it works
-
We start with an onboarding call
We talk through what's on your plate. I tell you plainly what I can take over, what I'd build first, and what I can't help with.
-
You call, I work
When you need help, you call. I get to work. There's no monthly retainer and no minimum term. It's simply hours.
-
I bill for the hours you use
Invoices are due on receipt.
Is this a good fit?
Who I work with
I'm the right fit if you:
- Own a small business and have more on your plate than hours in the day
- Are ready to invest in getting your time back
- Value a steady, thoughtful working relationship
To give every client my full attention, I take on a limited number of clients.
What I don't do
To keep things clear, I don't provide professional services that require extensive training or licenses:
- Legal advice. I'm not a lawyer.
- Tax advice or tax preparation. I'm not a CPA.
- Medical advice or care. I'm not a doctor.
- Building advice. I'm not an engineer.
- Etc.
If something calls for one of these, I'll let you know so you can bring in the right professional.
About me
I began my career in the early 1990s, building my first website just after the World Wide Web was born. Since then, I've acquired decades of experience, crafted countless brands, built hundreds of websites, produced award-winning advertisements, and become a prolific speaker, presenter, educator, and author.
I'm a Microsoft Office Specialist with Expert-level certifications in Excel and Access, and I use AI every day to work faster without cutting corners.

“I started working with The Creative Offices in 2018, and they have been excellent to work with. Design skills are excellent, work gets completed on time, projects are organized and produce excellent results. There are A LOT of companies that do what The Creative Offices does but not as well or as caring — and that starts at the top, with Jonathan putting in the time needed to do the job right and setting a good example for the rest of his people. The product is something you would be proud of, I know I am.”
Frank Zabski President, Technology Revealed
