Welcome to TOTB

Hello đź‘‹

I’m Shelley, Founder & Director of Think Outside the Box Business Support.

I’m based in Kent and work remotely with small businesses and entrepreneurs across the UK. After more than 10 years as a PA and Office Manager in both SMEs and large corporations, I chose to specialise in supporting founders and lean teams — the people who are spinning all the plates and don’t have time to waste.

Over the years I’ve managed inboxes and diaries, implemented systems, built processes from scratch, supported finance/admin functions, and generally been “the person who just gets it sorted.” I understand how quickly things can slide from “a bit busy” to “overwhelmed,” and how lonely that can feel when you’re the one in charge.

Think Outside the Box was born from two things:
  • a belief that you don’t have to run your business the way everyone else does, and
  • a very practical desire to help people get their time back.
For a long time I felt like I thought differently to everyone around me, and I used to see that as a weakness. Now I know it’s my strength. I’m able to step into a business, look at what’s happening with fresh eyes, and ask: “Why are we doing it this way? Is there an easier way?”
Very often — there is.

In a world that’s constantly shifting, the ability to adapt, simplify, and create smarter systems isn’t a luxury. It’s how you stay in control. What I offer is tailored support. That might look like:
  • taking work off your plate immediately,
  • organising what currently feels chaotic,
  • putting in simple processes so things stop falling through the cracks,
  • or being a sounding board for new ideas so you’re not carrying it all alone.
If you’re at the point where you know you can’t keep doing everything yourself, I’d love to chat.

Book a complimentary 30-minute consultation and let’s explore what you need — and how I can help you create a bit more breathing room in both your business and your day. I look forward to getting to know you,

Shelley
