Mandy’s Story & Experience
In 2009 Mandy left her longtime job at a water district working in public relations and became an entrepreneur. Her first venture was creating storybooks for small businesses. At a networking event to promote this business Mandy hit it off with the guest speaker and shortly after became the speaker’s assistant. Both in-person and virtual assistance. Mandy continued to network and found a niche and love of being the assistant to professional speakers & coaches. As time went on she decided to expand her clientele and has also worked with event planners, lawyers, sewing instructors, marketing firms, comedians, DJs and the list goes on.
In 2013 Mandy decided to follow a long time dream of becoming a Mobile DJ. It’s something she did for friends & family over the years and made jokes about starting her own business but it was the previous 4 years in the small business world and networking that gave her the courage (and a huge group of supporting people) to finally take the leap. From 2013-2019 Mandy continued to run her assistant business along with her DJ business (MandyMixes). In 2019, her Mobile DJ business was doing so well she decided to drop the assistant work and just focus on her and her DJ business. And then came 2020. We all know what that meant, the entertainment business was put on a very long pause so Mandy needed to find other income streams. She did this by re-launching her virtual assistant/social media management business. Her business used to be called “MandyOrganizes” but has been renamed to “Mandolyn Designs” with Mandolyn being her full first name. MandolynDesigns also includes handmade designs, art, care packages and more
So if you are looking for someone to assist you that understands the struggles of being a small business owner/entrepreneur Mandy is definitely your gal! She has been dubbed by many clients the “Queen of Change” and the “Figure It Out/Get it Done Gal” (meaning if she doesn’t know how, she will “figure it out!”)
