Our Backstory
No one likes to be sold to, but everyone loves a good story.
Elina started as Right Hand Woman on her own, but never really resonated with the identity of that branding. Covid left her with a bit (just a little bit…) of downtime to really mull it over. And after few glasses of wine post-lockdown, she hatched a new plan with a close friend. We won’t get into the finer details, but the brainstorming went from the concept of 007 to eventually Project 7.
An unconventional approach to naming a brand? Maybe. But we are more than a bit on the quirky side.

No Bullsh*t

They have taken care of the weeds, allowing me to focus on building the business in a stable & scalable way. Thank you team!Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I worked with Elina and the team this year to help me with some Facebook advertising for my video package. We ran ads to Auckland, Hamilton and Tauranga over a 2 month period. And they delivered 🙌 Awesome results 👏 Awesome traffic and lots of leads. The team kept me up to date with progress, regular reports and addressed issues promptly when they arose. Can't wait to work with them again.

I recently engaged a Virtual Assistant from Project Seven to help me get my SOPs, newsletters, and general organisational aspects under control. They were fantastic!

Elina was great to deal with and constantly checked in to ensure my expectations were being met. I highly recommend Project Seven for their excellent service and professionalism!Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Thanks for the work. Tidy, fast and efficient! What else would we ask for?! Thank you to you and your team!!Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I have been working with Project Seven for a few months now, and I am so happy with the work they are doing! They have taken over doing my sales calls, VIP group and social media, which has given back so much more of my time. Casey is so great at creating beautiful posts for my social media, engaging with my community, and is great at booking clients for their photoshoot. She also helps with any client reschedules or cancellations. With this newfound time I have been given, I can focus on more important think like working ON my business, rather than doing all the busy work that can be so time-consuming. I can't recommend Project Seven enough! If you have been thinking about outsourcing some work, you won't be disappointed!Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I just love the Project Seven team. They are all so kind and patient and helpful. We started working with them in 2022 to help with some serious admin overflow, and Jharna and Elina have quickly become an extended part of our full time team. I now no longer have to even think about invoicing and bookkeeping. Not only did Jharna come in and pick up the process so quickly, but she's also always making suggestions and checking things are done correctly. Highly recommend!Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. The team at Project Seven recently provided their support and expertise on the production of a corporate publication. They were able to bring together the various components to create an exceptional final product. I found the team were wonderful to work with at every step of the way, pre-empting my needs and making things as easy as possible. The attention to detail, creativity and professionalism are just some of the components that really made me go "WOW! What I enjoyed the most was how they were able to take this work off my plate, and just get it done and get it done well, so that I could focus on more important areas of my business! HIGHLY recommend.Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Our marketing team love to work with Elina and her team - especially around graphic design projects.
