To clarify, this is what I believe he’s asking for:
--A “virtual assistant” is someone off-site, who perhaps works from their home computer as an independent contractor, helping someone with some aspect of their business.-- The gentleman is wise enough to know that an entertainer “can’t do it all” and is seeking someone with Marketing and PR knowledge that can be hired to assist him to broaden his visibility and thus help him perform more shows. A great move on his part! Now, Suspectacts-- that said, you *might* have some luck on Craig’s List, BUT you’d have to screen like crazy and look at credentials to find someone competent and within your budget. I’ve also found some extra help by contacting the Dean of a university MBA program asking for Marketing majors who might want to add to their resume or get more real-world experience. Last, this is something I’ve focused on and a knowledge base I’ve worked on for a few decades, and if you need coaching I do that by Skype, I also create Press/Media Releases for entertainers and theatres. And can also recommend a few excellent books. My feeling is you need a someone to free you up for other things though, so go for it, it’s a great investment to hire a helping hand. Walt |

Walt,
To clarify, I know what a VA is. I was asking if it was for online only. If so he would be better off going to India or the Phillippines where they will work for $2.50 per hour. If it was for offline marketing then either Odesk.com or Elance.com or if a one shot deal for online go to fivver.com. He'll pay more at odesk and elance but at least they should have a command of english. George |
