Social Media Manager or Virtual Assistant

That way, you can be sure you’re getting the right-sized support that meets your exact needs.
You can make the most of your social media presence – and we can help.
Once upon a time, social media was easy enough to manage on your own. A Tweet here, a follow there, and some icons in the footer of our websites and emails. Set-it-and-forget-it, right?
Not anymore.
Because now, social media moves at the speed of life – and if your business is growing, it may be time to call in the cavalry.

Of course! You’ll be assigned a Client Success Consultant who will walk through onboarding with you and who is there as a coach and resource for your entire time here at BELAY.
All our contractors sign a Confidentiality Agreement to protect you and your business. If you would like any additional contracts, then we can discuss that. We highly recommend strong passwords and using a password manager to keep your accounts secure.
On average, our clients are matched within one week.
Your Client Success Consultant will meet with your Placement Team to discuss, vet and select 2-3 top candidates from our bench of nearly 2,000 U.S.-based talent, and then interview and select the best match for you.
We get it. Handing over the decision on who will work with you is a tough one. But what we also know after helping people just like you is that you don’t have time to devote to screening and setting up interviews. We have a proven system to match you to someone equipped to handle everything you need to accomplish.
Of course! We want your Social Media Manager to be an engaged member of your team!
No, we only offer a full-service solution and flat-rate pricing.
No, you will have one dedicated Social Media Manager that we match you with based on your needs, industry, personality and working style.
Your Client Success Consultant will be there to help. You’ll work together to find a new match and keep your downtime to a minimum. If there are any minor hiccups, we will address them and find a solution.
That will be between you and your Social Media Manager. If there are times you know are slower, then let your Social Media Manager know that would be a good time for time off. Commit to over-communicate with each other so work can be done ahead of time and productivity doesn’t lapse.
Your Social Media Manager can ebb and flow your hours throughout the month. We just shoot to come in at the contracted amount at the end of the month. If they go over, we simply bill the extra hours, but they do not roll over to the next month. We track and report on those during onboarding to make sure you are at a good amount of hours for the work needed.
It happens all the time! We know it’s a possibility that you’ll get to the place in your business where you want to expand your W-2 team, and we love nothing more than knowing we helped you find your first (or second or fifth) hire. Talk to your Client Success Consultant about the details.
Your Social Media Manager can handle your social channels, engage with your audience, tackle your schedule, and build a strong online presence to help you grow your business.
No, our Social Media Manager are available Monday-Friday, 9 a.m. – 5 p.m. While communication and availability will respect those hours, additional emergency management and monitoring will be considered and determined on a case-by-case basis with both your Social Media Manager and Client Success Consultant.
