Empire Secrets with Mariana Henninger
A Unicorn in the Office: How to Find the Perfect Marketing Assistant | Ep. 59
We often misunderstand the role of Virtual Assistants (VAs). Today I chat with self-proclaimed “jill-of-all-trades when it comes to digital marketing and techie skills” Emily Reagan about everything from defining the difference between a general assistant and a specialized marketing VA, all the way to the importance of real-time feedback loops during launches.
We also cover:
- Clarifying roles and responsibilities
- Specialization over generalization
- Onboarding and SOPs
- Hiring for the long term, not just the launch
- Investing in skilled (vs. low cost) help
- Capturing real-time feedback during launches
- Post-launch debriefs
Emily shares practical advice on avoiding common pitfalls when working with VAs, from setting clear expectations to how to actually build a well-rounded team. She’s the master of all things “finding your unicorn VA” – and my go-to for how to maximize your VA’s potential to boost your business!
