VA for US-based tech CEO - help me with my fast-growing company [CLOSED]

ME

I need you to keep me on track.

I am a US-based tech CEO and owner of Captivate (www.Captivate.ai) and have helped hundreds of companies (including Disney, Levi's, Budweiser, Microsoft, IBM, and more) with their digital marketing.

I live in Denver, Colorado, and all of my clients are currently in the US.

Captivate.ai helps companies turn their webinars and podcasts into 3-months of social media content.

For example, for one of our clients we turn each of their podcast episodes into 5 videos for LinkedIn, 5 videos for Instagram, image quotes for Facebook, Youtube videos, and 20 Tweets.

I know what to do to grow my brand and reach. I have lots of content to share, I am creative and constantly come up with new ideas.

However, I am not the best when it comes to structure, organization, repeating tasks and finishing projects. Especially routine, tech issues and details distract me and slow me down.

Will you help me reach as many people as we can, by helping me create structure to share my content, execute my ideas, message my clients and future clients, move things forward and pay attention to the details?

I need a person who delivers the content I create, who executes the standard tasks that need to be done, who follows up on the things I put into motion. I need you!

When I can concentrate on the areas where I have most added value, I can perform miracles and share my insights with the world. But I can only do this when I have somebody besides me who excels in the areas where I lack, so we can do miracles together.

I write my own content (LinkedIn posts, messages, videos, newsletters), so you do not need to do any content creation/writing yourself, but good English and great communication skills are essential.

You’ll be a valued team member of my small team supporting me in delivering great content to my followers. My remote team consists of 2 VAs that do my LinkedIn Lead Generation, video editor and a designer, so you’ll have lots of support and we hire specialists where needed.

You will be the first full time person in my team, working with me long term to grow and develop my business. There is room for growth in your role, too, as we expand and work together.

This job post and the application process are very detailed, because I am serious about my business, this job, finding the right person and the best match. I assume you want to know what you are getting into as well.

In the application form you’ll find a list of things we do and programs we work with. I will ask you to rate yourself on a scale of 1-10 per topic. I would like to know what you are good at and what you enjoy doing, so I can find the perfect match with my existing (small) team.

If you feel that you are the right person, I am excited to hear from you!
