Usually, when you think about working with an Online Business Manager, you think about a long-term relationship, diving deep into the intimate details about your business, or turning over day-to-day operations so that you (the business owner) can focus on other tasks. But working together on a project looks different than a traditional OBM relationship.
A time-bound project means our collaboration will last for the lifespan of a project. This working relationship allows for the flexibility you want in your business and for me to do what I am best at when you need me.
The OBM still brings her project management and leadership skills to the table, but for a project, we would work together for a specific period of time.
It’s a win-win for everyone.
What does it look like to be working together on a project?
First, working together looks like creating goals. This makes sure our focus is set and gives us tangible things to measure at the end. This helps you to know that you’re getting amazing value out of our relationship and helps me know the most important parts to give my attention. We’ll identify deliverables and create a realistic plan to make them a reality.
Then, we create a cadence of checking-in. While micromanaging isn’t necessary, having communication consistency is important.
Next, we get to work! It takes time for projects to come together so getting started sooner is best. But, with our established communication cadence, we’ll be talking all the time.

I am here to make your life easier. I attack projects like these from an analytical and process-oriented mindset. I manage timelines like a pro.
