Kind words from some of the people we've been fortunate to work with:
"Heather Uhl is an integral and indispensable part of our business. I recommend her with full confidence that there is no goal that she cannot help you to reach."
- Brian Smith, Canadian Hall and Walk of Fame and Juno Award-winning Artist, Great Pacific Records
My group, Trooper, has worked with Heather Uhl on an ongoing monthly retainer plan, for many years. She fully understands the intricacies (and vagaries) of the music business and handles an impressively large and varied workload with grace and good humor. She is hard-working, organized, alert, patient, thorough, and, maybe best of all, eerily intuitive.
Trooper is an award-winning, multi-platinum rock band, still performing regularly, and successfully, after over thirty years in the music business. For fifteen of those years the band has been self-managed. Successful artist management traditionally requires an office full of employees who specialize in the various aspects of the music and live performance business - interfacing with agents and promoters, creating and updating itineraries, managing business and fan-based correspondence, maintaining websites and online presence - the list literally goes on and on. All of this business is currently handled for Trooper by myself, my partner, and More Time in a Day's Heather Uhl.
Heather's work for us, and her representation of us to the general public, is always professional, prompt and friendly. In a nutshell - she makes Trooper look good!
Heather Uhl is an integral and indispensable part of our business. I recommend her with full confidence that there is no goal that she cannot help you to reach.

"... I rarely have had the pleasure of working with somebody as good and talented as Heather Uhl."
- John Zaritsky, Academy Award-winning Film Director
During my career, I rarely have had the pleasure of working with somebody as good and talented as Heather Uhl. She has exceptional leadership skills, is able to motivate and persuade people, and inspires people who work for her with her dedication and hard work. She also has strong organizational skills, and is able to gather a diverse team of volunteers and assign them tasks suitable to their abilities and interests. I was also impressed with Heather's interpersonal abilities. She looks after clients with sensitivity and intelligence and makes sure they are fully briefed and prepared for any media contact she has scheduled. Heather obviously likes people and people really like Heather. I can not recommend Heather highly enough to you. She's the best.

"She isn't just a doer, when it comes to marketing activities, she is often the source of the ideas that we put into play."
- Mark Levison, Certified Scrum Trainer, Author, Speaker, Agile Pain Relief
I've been working with Heather for over 10yrs. She has allowed me to let go of all the small details in running a business and instead focus on being an educator. My field of work (Scrum and Agile), are considered obscure and technical. Nonetheless, Heather dove headfirst into this space and learned. Frankly, she is now better skilled as an Agile Coach than many practicing in the field.
Among the many things she does that makes the business work:
- Translate my writing from disorganized to thoughtful and well-written
- Help me write: newsletters, blog posts, glossary entries, eBooks, private client bids and course materials
- Create graphics for courses and blog posts
- Administer our student registration system
- Design and build webpages
She isn't just a doer, when it comes to marketing activities, she is often the source of the ideas that we put into play.
In short, without Heather, Agile Pain Relief Consulting wouldn't have been anywhere near as successful for the past 10 yrs.

"Leaving the details of the business side of what I do to Heather has freed up more time with my family - and my writing and music - and helped me enjoy a calmer and happier life."
- Ra McGuire, best-selling Author and award-winning Songwriter
Heather Uhl (of MTIAD) has helped me so much, I don't know where to begin ...
Having what amounts to a digital personal assistant has been incredibly freeing. Leaving the details of the business side of what I do to Heather has freed up more time with my family - and my writing and music - and helped me enjoy a calmer and happier life.
Heather was particularly helpful during the launch and promotion of my 2006 book ("Here for a Good Time" - Insomniac Press) and the ongoing maintenance of both my personal blog and my overall web presence, but her level-headed help has spilled over into all aspects of my work.
I have recommended More Time in a Day, and Heather Uhl, to many friends and fellow creatives. I also sincerely recommend her to whoever reads this.

"Every now and then you find a talent that is one part magician and two parts savvy, then amazing things happen for you. This would be my experience with Heather."
- Mark Laurie, award-winning Master Photographer, Author, Speaker
Every now and then you find a talent that is one part magician and two parts savvy, then amazing things happen for you. This would be my experience with Heather. My social marketing approach, to be polite, was scattered. Heather made sense of it for me, streamlined the approach, tying all my doorways into a unique presentation of me. She even took over some of the posting chores.
The SEO of my websites was exceptionally weak. With little direction, lots of intuition on my needs, Heather is building the foundation for a very effective SEO. The savings of having Heather do the work was impressive. She instills a great confidence that it is done right and effectively. I am looking forward to the results.
Heather has been extremely important in my online marketing efforts of our diverse product lines. She is full of insights and advice. Constantly looking for opportunities, sharing them when she finds them. You can see the self starter working fairly unsupervised. I enjoy knowing all sorts of things are getting done while I focus on my key work.
If you get a chance to have her work for you, don't hesitate, leap at the opportunity. She is a rare gem.

"The quality of work and services that have been provided to me and my business has been exemplary!!"
- Rick Passek - Author, Speaker, Instructor, Athlete
I have been using More Time In A Day's services for some time now. The quality of work and services that have been provided to me and my business has been exemplary!!
Heather Uhl and her staff have done everything that I have required with speed and professionalism and have kept not only my business, but myself on track, and have freed up my time to do the things that are important to me in my professional and personal life.
I can't thank Heather and her staff enough for all the work they have done for me, and I look forward to many years of working with them in the future.

"The changes she has brought to my business, in terms of inner office organization, promotional materials, and technological capabilities, have been nothing short of miraculous! I find myself wondering is there anything this wonder woman cannot do?"
- Zandra Bell, Motivational Humorist, Author
It's only been a matter of months now, that I have had the supreme fortune to have Heather Uhl working with me as my virtual assistant. In that short time, the changes she has brought to my business, in terms of inner office organization, promotional materials, and technological capabilities, have been nothing short of miraculous! I find myself wondering is there anything this wonder woman cannot do?
Not only is she extremely competent dealing with the standard day to day VA duties relating to computers, invoicing, scheduling and keeping track of, well, ..everything, but, I find she goes the extra mile and treats your business like it's her own, making brilliant suggestions for updates, and improvements that have not yet occurred to you.
I am left feeling she is not just an "assistant" that follows my instructions in a capable fashion, which is hard enough to find these days, but instead, she is much more like a partner, staunchly aligned with my objectives, moving my company forward, yet always respectful of my needs and opinions. She is well versed in everything from social media to web site design, from customer relations, to marketing and promotion.
I am telling you, even though our time together has been relatively short, I have seen her grace under pressure in some very awkward but unavoidable situations completely not of her own making. Yet she was compelled to deal with them and did so with maturity and aplomb.
Honestly I can't say enough about Heather's loyalty, reliability, and professionalism. Quite frankly I selfishly don't want to say anything at all, actually, because I don't want her so much in demand, there comes a day I am forced to go it alone without her. I would surely whither and die, right along with my business. :(
I heartily recommend Heather Uhl as a true professional. Any business would be extremely lucky to have her on board!

"Upon giving to her what I was working with she came back with in depth feedback and contributed many ideas. She opened us to new ideas and directions for us to move towards."
- Team Pozdnekoff Racing, Sports Team
I am so glad that I thought of Heather and her business More Time in a Day when it was time to look for sponsors for our motocross racing team. Upon giving to her what I was working with she came back with in depth feedback and contributed many ideas. She opened us to new ideas and directions for us to move towards. With her help in revamping our sponsorship letter and creating a one sheet the response to our requests has been very successful. Heather knows what it takes to promote a team like Team Pozdnekoff Racing, as she has dedicated her time to help the team reach new heights in attaining new and exciting sponsors.
It has been a great learning experience and a lot of fun working with Heather. A website was the farthest from my mind but we now have a website too. With Heather's knowledge and professionalism on our side Team Pozzy has incurred much more confidence. We look forward to working with her in the future and I would recommend her to anyone else who doesn't have enough time in the day or needs new ideas and insight.

"A stunning end result... I whole-heartedly recommend Heather for her website development. I couldn't have asked for anything better."
- Bonnie Gerow, Grand Cayman vacation property owner
I came to Heather with a concept that was not very well developed - I needed a website for my beach house rental and had no idea what I wanted - but knew what I didn't want - same old, same old. Not only did Heather produce an end product that is visually stunning and easy to use, she showed me, along the way, how to run the site myself! She took the time to understand what I liked and showed me drafts, giving me options and suggestions as we progressed. She wasn't afraid to make suggestions to better the product and even now continues to assist when I ask for it. She also checks in to see how I am doing and to make sure I have the tools I need to maintain my site.
A stunning end result - and that's not just my opinion; many others have commented on just how beautiful the site is. It is EXACTLY what I wanted and reflects me AND my beach home. I whole-heartedly recommend Heather for her website development. She was patient when I changed my mind, fearless in finding the right answer for my needs and showed me how to run things on a go forward basis. I couldn't have asked for anything better.

"Heather is someone who gets the job done in the most professional and efficient manner possible."
- Montana Berg, Film Producer
Heather is someone who gets the job done in the most professional and
efficient manner possible. She was instrumental in pulling together a
fundraising screening for our documentary LEAVE THEM LAUGHING, by
Oscar-winning director John Zaritsky. Through her many connections and hard
work Heather secured the perfect venue for the screening and garnered a TV
interview for the director in order to promote the event. In addition,
Heather designed beautiful marketing materials and through her immense
enthusiasm pulled together an all around successful affair which raised a
significant amount of money for the film. Heather is an absolute joy to work
with, whatever your needs may be!

"My experience with More Time in a Day proved to me that this is the company we ALL need the most."
- Cory Mack, professional Comedian, Canadian Comedy Award nominee
My experience with More Time in a Day proved to me that this is the
company we ALL need the most.
As the co-founder of Comediapedia.ca, and as a professional comedian
with a full-time career as a fund development/communications officer
and a mother of two I am blessed. All I could ever need is more time to
enjoy it all. Thank you Heather!
I was thrilled to have a professional press release written for
Comediapedia.ca but more thrilling was having it picked up by a major newspaper in less than 10 hours. Kudos to More Time in a Day!
