The Rise Of The Multifaceted Virtual Assistant:
4 Ways In Which Virtual Marketing Assistants Differ To Traditional Virtual Assistants
Historically, Virtual Assistants have been an entrepreneur’s solution to a singular problem area.
Whether that’s inbox management…
Or social media management…
Or calendar organisation…
The key fact here being that a Virtual Assistant was always trained in just one specific area.
Which is great if you’re running a multi-million dollar organisation. In particular if you need one individual to focus on just one tedious, low-value task
We’re Outsourced Doers. We match time-strapped founders with pre-trained Virtual Marketing Assistants (we call them ‘Doers’). This frees up the Founder’s time to work solely on their Genius Zone – that area where they are the expert… and essentially, the money-making area of their business.
With a background in coaching entrepreneurs to reach a profitable lifestyle business, and with a mission to stop entrepreneurs from hitting burnout through providing them with the support they need… we consider Outsourcing to be OUR Genius Zone.
Now, if you’re anything like the Founders who come to us, looking for help but hesitant to hire a full time Virtual Marketing Assistant… you might be thinking that you don’t have enough tasks to justify this outsourcing route.
Now, we have worked with thousands of founders since we began our outsourcing business in 2020… and a common train of thought is this:
Here are the top 4 ways that Virtual Marketing Assistants differ to traditional Virtual Assistants…
Highly Selective Hiring Process
Not just anyone can be a Virtual Marketing Assistant…
VMAs are the cream of the crop, and outsourcing agencies ensure this.
For instance, when Outsourced Doers is hiring… there is a rigorous process to ensure that only the best candidates are selected. These include:
- Language tests
- Speed typing tests
- Psychometric testing
- Background checks
- Police checks
- Interviews
- Resume reviews
You can see that no stone is left unturned… and no measure is too far when it comes to selecting the best Virtual Marketing Assistants (or ‘Doers’, as Outsourced Doers refers to them)…
Right?
Intensive Training
Virtual Marketing Assistants also encounter an intensive training period. You want your VMA to come into your business with skills in all the essential areas like:
- Tech
- Graphic design
- Online marketing
- Customer support
- Website building and maintenance
- Social media management
- Lead generation
- Inbox management
- Email marketing

Right?
Luckily, Outsourced Doers send Doers to ‘Doers University’. Here, they undergo a 30-day intensive training program.
As part of our matching process, Doers also learn the tools that are specific to YOUR business.
