Virtual Assistant To Marketing/Design Agency Founder

We are a Design and Marketing agency that is looking to grow fast over the next year or so. The key to this is going to be having an assistant that can work alongside the founder and also grow along with the company.

We need someone to assist with day-to-day email management, sorting, customer support and potentially sales. Availability in EST business hours (9am-5pm) is a must, and starting part time or 25 hours/week is an option. Great written and spoken English are a must as well.

Let me know a bit about your background and what makes you a unique candidate.

Some sample business tasks (personal tasks might pop up as well):
– Doing research and writing a brief for a web designer, or reviewing pages that the web designers have created for design and spelling mistakes.

– Tracking down inspiration sites for web designers that showcase good design, and also selection and compilation of stock photos.

– Report Preparation, document formatting, data entry, etc.

– Communicating with clients, and dealing with a support desk/ticketing system.

– Basic SEO (listing updates, research, etc.)

Required:
– Availability and normal work schedule in EST Business hours (Roughly 9-5PM)
– Great written and spoken English for email and phone
– Good organizational skills
– Some design sense of what types of sites or logos look ‘modern’ for research purposes
– Stable internet & webcam for zoom meetings

Bonus skills that would be great (but not required)
– Familiarity with WordPress as far as uploading blog posts, uploading events, and stuff like that.
– Excellent design skills. Doesn’t need to be pro level, but an eye for it and Canva skills are a huge bonus for social media posting and stuff.
– Basic SEO, if you have some experience here let it be known to what extent.
– Research Skills. The company name is PSG Media, 401 area code, find some uncommon knowledge about the company or founder and include that in your reply.
– Copywriting experience is also a bonus, we would like someone to fill a role writing web page content until we get enough work for a full time copywriter.

(And anything else you are skilled in, please mention)

In your reply, let me know what your salary request is.

Thanks!
