Our Focus
Blog Management
Have something to say but just can’t find the words? Don’t have the time to publish all that great content you have rattling around? Your virtual assistant is your wordsmith. Blog management is completed to maximize SEO and create high emotional value content, while staying true to your brand and voice.
Social Media Management
Managing your brand(s) across multiple social media platforms can be exhausting. Your virtual assistant will take this time consuming task off your hands; ensuring your presence is fresh and up to date with relevant and interesting content. Don’t have a social media presence? Don’t worry. We can fix that too.
Web-building and design
Your virtual assistant can assess the needs of your business and your vision for your website, and make your ideas come to life! We specialize in, and recommend, WordPress platforms, but can build with many other programs as well. Please contact us to see some examples of our work.
