One-Stop Shopping with Call Sheilah

5/28/2019

Perhaps you didn't know that our number one priority is to meet the needs of our customers with tasks, big and small. If you come to Call Sheilah! we want to find a way to solve whatever issue that needs handling, and give you service that is friendly, efficient and worry-free. When speaking recently to our long-time client Casey, it was great to hear that she has found working with us to be a convenient “one-stop shopping” experience where we can help coordinate multiple aspects of a project, and take on a range of tasks.
 
When Casey’s client, whom she acts as a guardian for, needed to move under a tight timeline to an assisted-living facility she thought immediately of Call Sheilah! to help facilitate the process. This move happened to take place around the holidays, and Casey said she was impressed with how efficiently everything from packing to coordinating with vendors to pick up donated items was done with no need for her to step in or provide reminders. Her client was able to get back their security deposit on their apartment and move seamlessly into their assisted-living facility all under the timeframes and budget Casey had provided.  Casey felt that the team at Call Sheilah! did a “wonderful job” from start to finish and was relieved to have these services available with this time-sensitive move.
 
We love that Casey has thought of so many different ways to use Call Sheilah! services, including buying a gift card for her own mom when she needed help with the finishing touches of cleaning out a family estate. She’s also referred our team to colleagues who work in estate planning/probate to assist clients who may be overwhelmed with the process of organizing or cleaning out an estate, and to colleagues who deal with divorce proceedings whose clients need help distributing/packing/selling personal property items. These are areas that we are so glad to provide assistance with while focusing on making clients feel at ease, respected and heard during what can be difficult life transitions.
 
Casey has even called on us to assist with personal shopping for a disabled client whose regular aide had to take some time off. We picked up groceries for her client, and unpacked and organized their pantry. It means a lot to us that customers like Casey trust us to work closely with their family, colleagues and clients. Casey told us she loves working with us because we “spend the time coordinating multiple aspects of a given project” so that she doesn’t have to.
 
When asked about her experience working with Call Sheilah!, Casey said that she really appreciates that she can go to us for any project and know that we’ll carefully consider it- that “no project is too small or too much of a pain to take on. The fees are reasonable, and Sheilah is always willing to jump in and take on a project.” If that doesn’t summarize our mission, we don’t know what does! So, keep us in mind for those nagging little tasks you just never seem to have time for, or to tackle big multi-tiered projects that you can’t manage alone. We’re here for you whenever you need us!

And by the way, we feel the same way about Casey and her law firm. They are competent, efficient, smart, compassionate, available, accessible and will answer any question. If you have legal issues, estate planning needs, a closing or a contract, check out Copps, Dipaola, Silverman, PLLC. ​
Picture
This empty space was Casey's client's living room. It was filled with a lifetime of memories and belongings. When Casey decided to Call Sheilah!, we were at the ready to sort, donate and remove everything, after the client was relocated for health reasons. We prefer to show the after pictures only, to ensure the privacy of our clients. ​

Event Planning that Exceeds Expectations

Call Sheilah! offers a wide range of personal concierge services, and one of our specialties is high-quality event planning and facilitation. We’ve planned and executed events from weddings, large corporate events, lobby days and small, intimate gatherings. Call Sheilah! has provided registration table coverage, event logistics, vendor coordination and troubleshooting to anticipate and solve any issues and ensure your event runs seamlessly.
 
Our long-time client Sabrina thought of us first when she needed support for fundraising events for her family foundation- the wonderful Let’s Be Superheroes- and we were happy to answer the call. When chatting with Sabrina about her experience using Call Sheilah! event planning services, she told us that her decision to bring Call Sheilah! aboard to help with logistics was based on Sheilah Sable's  “genuine heart."  Sabrina needed someone to help as the foundation honorees, individuals living with cancer, were prepped and transported to a photo shoot. Reliability, professionalism and warmth were absolutely necessary for anyone Sabrina hired to help facilitate the day.
 
“Sheilah outshone my expectations. She set our honorees at ease, which isn’t easy to do when you might be nervous being on camera. She just made people feel really good about themselves.”
 
For the photo shoot Sheilah helped get the honorees to and from the prep are to the shoot, and coordinated with the onsite vendors to ensure things were running on time and the honorees were comfortable throughout the day. At the foundation’s evening event Sheilah also helped coordinate with Sabrina’s team to ensure no details were overlooked and any issues that cropped up were dealt with quickly. “She is anticipatory… People are shuttling back and forth, sweating getting everything moved from A to B, and she’s the first to show up with a case of water.”
 
Sabrina told us she really appreciates Sheilah’s ability to both look at the big picture, and also have her boots on the ground executing the smallest of details. “I’ll never not use her! …She listens carefully and responds thoughtfully. That’s why she’s able to not just meet but exceed the needs of customers she serves.” Sabrina said when asked about her experience and future event planning needs. We love having this great working relationship with a terrific local foundation that’s doing so much to support cancer patients and help support their needs for integrative care, and being able to help ensure their events are as successful as possible.
 
Our mission here at Call Sheilah! is to fulfill your event planning needs so that you can relax and trust that your event is in experienced hands, and you can hopefully enjoy yourself and let us sweat the details. Give us a call (or shoot us an email) the next time you need help with event planning, and make sure to take a look at the Let’s Be Superheroes website to learn more about their next Visions of Strength gala planned for October 17th.
