General Virtual Assistant

I’m a leadership development consultant, author, and speaker building a multi-lane brand that includes coaching and L&D services, a growing newsletter and LinkedIn platform, published books, and speaking engagements. I’m looking for a sharp, proactive Virtual Assistant to help me run and grow it all. This is not an order-taker role. I’m looking for an initiator (someone who sees what needs to happen, asks informed questions, and moves without needing constant oversight).

What You’ll Do

Outreach & Growth

Cold outreach to prospective clients (email and LinkedIn), including list-building, personalized first touch messages, and follow-up sequences.

Pitch podcasts, media outlets, and event organizers for interviews and speaking opportunities

Track all outreach and follow-ups in our CRM (GoHighLevel)

Research Requests for Proposals or applicable activities

Content & Social Media

Schedule and publish social media content (primarily LinkedIn and Instagram)

Repurpose newsletter essays and long-form content into social posts

Format and schedule newsletter issues in Substack

Light copyediting and proofreading of drafts before they go out

Administrative

Email inbox management and triage

Calendar management and scheduling

Google Drive organization and file management

Speaking engagement logistics: inquiry responses, booking coordination, sending materials, post-event follow-up

Who You Are Deeply

Detail-oriented. Typos, missed steps, and sloppy formatting are dealbreakers in this role. A strong writer who can learn and match my voice in outreach messages, captions, and correspondence. A writing sample will be required. Proactive and self-directed. You ask for clarity when you’re confused, but you also come with informed questions and proposed solutions — not just problems. Reliable and ahead of deadlines, with quick turnaround on time-sensitive items. Responsive. Replies within 1 hour during the American Central Standard time zone, with flexibility for occasional time-sensitive needs. This excludes known personal time. Coachable. You implement feedback quickly and without ego. Warm, mannerable, and professional in every interaction — you’ll be representing me. Discreet. You’ll handle sensitive business and client information. An NDA is required.

Tools You Should Know

Google Workspace (Gmail, Calendar, Drive, Docs)

LinkedIn and Instagram (organic posting and engagement)

Substack (or comparable newsletter platform) GoHighLevel (or comparable CRM — GHL experience is a strong plus)

Bonus Points For (But not required)

Graphic design skills (Canva or Adobe)

Light video editing for Reels/short-form content

Experience supporting authors, speakers, coaches, or consultants

Familiarity with faith-based audiences and content

A Note on AI

I’m fine with AI as an assist. I’m not fine with AI as a crutch. If your outreach, captions, and emails read like they came off an assembly line, this won’t work. Your judgment, voice, and attention are what I’m hiring.
