Yes, I also work as a virtual assistant for other bloggers! I do a wide variety of jobs, although I do have a few specialties! Most of my work is with other food bloggers, however I do have.a handful of clients who aren’t food bloggers.
The main thing that you should know when hiring me is that I try to always provide a good service to help you see maximum results. I will also tell you if I don’t believe that I’m the right person for the job or can’t do the job well for you.
I am open and honest, as well as always happy for you to check in on how the work’s going.
What services do I provide?
Well, the list is quite extensive, so I’ll list my main focuses here! I do take jobs other than the ones on my list though. So, if you’d like to know whether I can do a certain job then feel free to contact me (see below).
Keyword Research
For old posts and new ideas to help you either update and re-optimise old posts or to work out which ideas are the most worth pursuing. I offer this both as a smaller package and in bulk and will provide up to 3 keywords (there may not always be 3 decent ones) and a recommended title for each post.
Post Writing
(optimising for google is included as part of the package)
I’m able to re-write and optimise old posts very quickly for you, as well as writing new posts providing you send me the recipe and a photo (if you’re a food blogger), as well as a vague idea of what you’d like the title to be.
All posts are written to be as helpful to the user as possible.
Post Formatting
Got a load of posts written in word documents but no time to add them to WordPress?
I can format them for you!
Just let me know what you want where (e.g. images) and which fields you want me to fill in (e.g. excerpt and categories). Then I can get started and it’s as easy as sitting back and relaxing while I get it done!
Slideshow Video Creation
Let me create engaging slideshow tutorial videos for your recipes!
I use the process shots from your post to create the video and it’s a great way to boost your ad income and facebook stats!
Printable Creation
Yes, I can create a printable ebook or another type of opt-in freebie for your mailing list!
Or, why not have me create a few and sell them on your site for an extra source of income? Either way, they’re great to have handy!
Spreadsheet Creation & Completion
I can create a spreadsheet for you to allow you to keep track of things such as income, expenses, post updates, keywords, new post ideas and more! I can even fill it in for you if you provide the information.
This can help you to maximise your productivity by helping you to stay organised. Each spreadsheet is personal to you and your needs in the same way that my own spreadsheet is best suited to mine.
Pinterest Scheduling (with tailwind)
While I don’t create the pin images, I can save you a few hours every month/couple of weeks by scheduling your posts to Pinterest using tailwind.
All you need to do is send me the posts and your strategy regarding hashtags and number of boards per post. Easy as pie!
Facebook & Instagram Scheduling
(using Facebook creator studio)
Once again, you just let me know how often you want to post and how many of each type of post you share. Then, I can schedule a week or two’s worth of posts at.a time for you – no more worries about social media queues running out!
Sharing to Facebook Groups
Yes, I do happily share your posts to facebook groups for maximum exposure! It’s a simple yet time-consuming task which means that it’s a great idea to outsource it!
The only thing to note is that you would have to join the groups as your page – I don’t share your posts to groups using my personal profile, and I doubt you’d like it much if I required your login to do it from yours!
Photo Editing
Yep, I can edit your photos too using lightroom!
This isn’t one of my most common services as I specialise in light and bright photos. However, it can be a time-suck so it’s well worth outsourcing it if you either struggle to use the software or simply just don’t have time or aren’t happy with the results.
Other Services
Looking for another service? Email me at hannah@crunchandcream.com – I’m happy to be honest about my skills in that area and can guide you to another assistant who can do the work if I can’t!
What are my rates?
As my rates vary according to currency anf other factors, I choose not to share them here. Instead, why not send me an email? Just include your niche, what you need doing, due date and where you are in the world and I’ll get back to you ASAP!
My email: hannah@crunchandcream.com
How do you pay me?
Depending on the package or arrangement, you will either pay upfront, half before and half after or all on completion.
I am also able to customise my prices and packages to suit your blog too. If one package is too advanced but another isn’t advanced enough then I’m happy to customise them specifically for you in order to build the package that you need.
If you are in the UK, then I typically accent payment through bank transfer. However, you’re from outside of the UK then it usually works out cheapest for you to create a transferwise account in order to pay me. This method minimises the fees for both of us. Paypal can be incredibly expensive!
