Typical Admin Tasks Might Include:
Manage an email inbox and schedule appointments
Coordinate travel arrangements
Organize folders and files on Google Drive or Dropbox
Prepare estimates, proposals, and contracts
Update contacts in CRM/database
Typical Marketing Tasks Might Include:
Create and post content for social media channels
Write website copy or blog posts
Prepare and send email marketing campaigns
Follow, like, and engage with relevant social media accounts to grow clients' followings and increase engagement
Assist with webinar and e-course marketing

A dependable computer (Mac or PC)
Access to high-speed internet and a dependable phone

A commitment to never, ever “ghosting” a client or Trusty Oak — a cornerstone of the Trusty Oak difference
A positive attitude during challenging situations
