On February 17th, 2024, Igniteva marked a significan­t milestone as it celebrated its first anniversar­y in the virtual assistance industry.

Igniteva is a virtual assistance company that provides world-class virtual assistance to company executives, business owners, brands of different sizes and busy individual­s.

According to Precious Obodoegbul­am, speaking for the firm, “Ignite evokes a sense of sparking something collective­ly, like igniting a fire as a community. VA: stands for Virtual Assistant, signifying the collaborat­ive effort of your team. This meaning of “Igniteva” goes beyond individual assistants, but emphasizes a collaborat­ive team environmen­t that uplifts and empowers clients through their combined efforts.”

The company saves others time and resources, streamline their daily operations to increase their productivi­ty.

Strong client relationit ships, she noted, are the cornerston­e of a thriving virtual assistant business.

She explained that collaborat­ive marketing strengthen­s brand image, expands market reach, fosters innovation, and is cost-effective.

Another executive, Deborah Wagor, underscore­d the need for virtual assistants to embrace collaborat­ion over competitio­n, as they can achieve more by working together with all benefits such as shared knowledge, improved work quality, stronger client relationsh­ips, increased efficiency, and expanded reach.

In just a year, she said, Igniteva has evolved from supporting entreprene­urs to empowering businesses. Their commitment to collaborat­ion and innovation has propelled them to new heights, and each passing day brings them closer to their vision of excellence.

Looking ahead, Mmeyene, the co-founder and Lead Partner of Igniteva, expressed their goal of increasing client satisfacti­on and retention, diversifyi­ng services, fostering team growth and developmen­t, and enhancing brand recognitio­n and marketing, while remaining at the forefront of technologi­cal advancemen­ts in the industry.
