Janet Doré
Chief Everything Officer
After focusing on raising my son and daughter for nearly two decades, at the beginning of 2013, I was eager to revive my career. The recessionary economy was an hurdle, but my lifelong entrepreneurial spirit found a way to clear it. The result was Scribaceous, Inc.
Although quite difficult to spell, this curious word — meaning ‘fond of writing’ — captured the core of the small business services when I launched the company in April 2013. Though my business has evolved and expanded, writing is still central to most projects.
In 2022, I became an official IHUBApp agency and, in 2023, became a consultant for the company in order to help them better serve their small business clients and freelance Hubmasters.
For me, one of the most valuable benefits of being an entrepreneur is the ability to remain true to myself in my professional endeavors. I get to be who I am and do what I love, which is something I am grateful for on a daily basis.
Most of my clients come to me through personal referrals and our relationship is based on mutual respect and trust _ My clients trust me to help them make crucial decisions for their business and complete their project or tasks on time with the utmost of competence and care and I trust them to compensate me fairly and treat me with respect.
I strive to over-deliver whenever possible and be a reliable and top quality resource for small business owners. Because I usually achieve these benchmarks, my business relationships often evolve into something much deeper.
From the start, my goal was to create a company that enabled me to work from anywhere. Achieving this goal is an accomplishment I am most proud of in my life. Today, while Scribaceous, Inc., is headquartered in San Diego, CA, the work is getting done on Panamá’s stunning Azuero Peninsula. (If you ever want to take a sabbatical or rejuvenate your spirit, I have a casita waiting for you!)
Being a passionate proponent of the “sharing economy,” I am always open to trading services with my clients. If you feel you have something of value to offer in trade for a small business service, do not hesitate to discuss it with me!
Last, but definitely not least, I am also the proud creator of the Hub Mama program where I train and mentor those looking to grow their own freelance Hubmaster business.
Our Clients Say It Best
Having Janet and her team at Scribaceous design my website has been a wonderful experience! She has a keen attention to detail, was professional every step of the way and is highly skilled. I was amazed at the level of patience she had every step of the way. I love my website and feel that it represents my practice and office. Friends, colleagues and patients have been complementing my website. And with a website I feel that I am on the road to developing an online presence. Janet’s patience, experience and guidance allows me to continue working with her for site maintenance services and updates and navigating new territory. I cannot recommend her highly enough!
One more thing…
I just got back from a little surfing time and in the water this thought/feeling strongly came to me—I appreciate you for not only your skills as a website manager, but also because you are kindhearted. I appreciate that in you, Janet.
I have worked with Janet and her team now for close to year. I have great appreciation for her and her team. Not only do I love my website, that she designed, but I get a lot of complements on it as well from friends and colleagues. She is professional, skilled, timely, and patient. Also, the site maintenance services keep the site working well and are a plus! Her results speak for themselves.
Janet has been a fantastic addition to our team. The past couple of years have been challenging as our business has changed and our brand has had to adapt to those changes. As entrepreneurs and small business owners we need to stay nimble and have tasks handled as needed, when needed. That’s exactly what Janet has always done for us. She is diligent, dedicated and detail oriented and stays on top of social media trends, which has really helped our business. Her mastery of the written word, combined with her talent for visual arts, are invaluable assets.
Janet is the BEST!!! She really understood my business and my vision and designed a beautiful website for me. She pays attention to detail like no one else and has such a beautiful sense of design. She is honest, very dependable, extremely thorough, and a lot of fun to work with. She is also hosting my new website and doing my monthly website maintenance as well and very soon she will be handling my newsletters and blog posts. HIRE JANET, you will be so happy you did!
After 20 years in business, I realized I needed professional help with my website, company branding and visibility in my industry of Executive Recruiting and Career Transition Coaching. I researched several Virtual Assistants to interview and Janet Dore at Scribaceous stood out among the rest. My decision has paid off immensely and I could not have taken my company to the next level of awareness and visibility without her. Janet’s response time and instinct for areas that need attention and follow up are spot on. I highly recommend her for website design, webmaster services, blog optimization, graphic design, and email marketing.
It has been my genuine pleasure to know Janet Dore as a personal assistant for the past three years. I have had the privilege of working closely with Janet as a professional designer, advisor, marketer, and personal assistant extraordinaire. Janet Dore’s expertise in implementing outstanding customer service on a day-to-day basis, with a depth of knowledge and experience is evident in everything she does. She has also been a mentor and advisor to my business, and integral in the vision and commitment to supporting my clients, associates, and companies. Janet has designed newsletters, resources, and guided me on personal programs and creative copy for my company, all with outstanding delivery. Without her expertise, support, and formidable dedication, I would not have the outstanding business I have today. Janet has been key to the growth and success of my business, and my professional growth. Janet is a gifted ambassador. She is consistently informed, articulate and caring, and her commitment to excellence is apparent in everything she does. She blends classic etiquette with thoughtful and impeccable attention to detail Janet Dore would be a great asset to any business. She triumphs over challenge, and her sense of personal power and compassion to others are a gift to all who come in contact with her. I give Janet Dore the highest recommendation. She is a rare jewel indeed!
