5 Ways Virtual Assistants Can Help Influencers

Are you an influencer who’s always buried under your to do list? Check out this blog for 5 ways a virtual assistant can help you!

If you’re building and running your brand as a public personality, influencer or content creator, you know there is a lot of work that goes into the backend of everything, all of the behind the scenes tasks. There’s only so many hours in a day, and at some point, you run into a wall of tasks that you need to finish to move forward, but struggle to get done. Especially some of those tasks that you maybe just don’t enjoy but are a part of running your business. If you’re reading this and know the feeling, it’s time to outsource!

When you’re just starting to look into outsourcing, the best option is to look into hiring a virtual assistant or VA. Getting yourself an assistant that can help you with those tasks you don’t like or that you don’t have time for is the next step any brand or business needs to take in order to grow. But what are things that a VA could help with?

At C3 Social, we do all sorts of projects for our public personality and influencer clients. If you’re interested in what the options are to outsource and how we can help, then keep on reading!

1) Email Management for Influencers

We hear from a lot of our clients that they feel completely overwhelmed by their inbox. The number of requests and inquiries to keep up with on top of their main work is often just too much. We can help by cutting through the chaos, handling all those emails that you don’t need to deal with personally and create a process for you that shows you instantly what does need your attention. We love the inbox zero method so it’s even easier to see what is still on the to-do list, what is important and what has already been taken care of.

2) Influencer Collaborations, Appearances & Engagements

As an influencer or public personality, getting yourself out there is very important and part of your income stream. Paid or affiliate social media collaborations, public appearances, speaking engagements, podcast guest spots etc. are all great ways to do this. But managing all these engagements is taking time away from actually focusing on those commitments. By taking the communication off your plate and collecting all the information and deliverables needed, we can help you save a lot of time so you can focus on the actual collaboration and deliver a stellar result.

3) Graphic Design for Influencers

Your brand is what helps people recognize you, so having branding that goes with you and your business is very important. And if you want people to instantly know it’s you, you need to be consistent across the board, like your email signature, media card, rate card, media deck, and more. This will also help position you as a thought leader that people connect with, because they recognize you and trust you and your brand. It can help show your experience in your field and provide a professional presence to others you’re working with as well. At C3 Social, we can help you develop your branding and put together all these different aspects of your brand.

4) Influencer Calendar Management

Keeping track of what needs to happen when is another one of those things that is so important, but takes up way too much time for many business owners. Outsourcing calendar management will not give you some of that time back, it will probably also make your calendar much more clear. Having someone focus on your calendar and making sure all your meetings, speaking engagements, appointments and deadlines are laid out and neatly arranged will help you stay focused on your zone of genius. And just imagine not having to deal with all that communication trying to plan things!

5) Social Media Management for Influencers

Social media is the place to be for most public personalities, but there is so much work that goes into having a successful online presence. You need to create content, post, coordinate collabs, engage with your audience, all on top of all your other commitments. But guess what? You can outsource this too! At C3 Social, we know how important a consistent social media presence is. We can help by managing your account from start to finish – or as much as you need help with. Some of our clients like to engage with their audience themselves, others like to write their own posts but need help connecting with other accounts. There’s a solution for your needs as well!
