I have a popular podcast for e-commerce business owners. The podcast is for small business owners, handmade businesses and other product-based business owners. I’m a Shopify Expert and web designer, and I teach other business owners how to use Shopify. I’ve been in business almost 8 years and have been podcasting for more than 3 years. The podcast has almost 100,000 total downloads, and approximately 500-1000 weekly listeners.

I am looking for a virtual assistant to help edit, manage, and promote the podcast. We have weekly episodes, sometimes with a guest expert or sometimes it’s an episode with just me. I currently only use the audio files for the podcast, although future projects may include video.

We publish once per week. Each episode would need the following tasks.

3- Create blog graphics and social media graphics in Canva (based on a template).
4- Upload and schedule edited audio to Buzzsprout.
5- Publish and schedule blog posts to Shopify with graphics.
6- Add all content to Content Bank database.

Additionally, in the future I’d also like to send videos that would need to be edited for the courses I teach.
