Open House Call: Online Business Management OR Navigating The Quarter Million Dollar Speed Bump

Open House Call from Wednesday April 1, 2009
Led by Andrea J. Lee and Tina Forsyth

Take just a moment and imagine…the corporate world without managers. Jokes aside for a sec, now ask…where are the equivalent managers in the online business world?

As online businesses grow, especially to the now-famous Quarter Million Dollar Speed Bump, it quickly becomes mission critical to get a certain kind of help. Not the administrative kind but the strategic kind. The Virtual Assistant on steroids (not literally, okay?) is what Tina Forsyth and I have dubbed the Online Business Manager, and the demand for OBMs is nothing short of extraordinary. When the right OBM joins a business, the results are too.

Join this call to learn the 5 key reasons you may benefit from having an OBM, how to know when you’re ready to hire and the things you can expect an OBM will do. Even if you’re not quite ready to hire, and you anticipate filling the role for yourself for now, join the call to get much more strategic about it. 

Online Business Managers and aspiring OBMs are welcome too – there won’t be an OBM-related conversation that’s more client-centric than this. We’ll also give a brief intro to the Association of OBMs where clients and OBMs can meet, and the release of the world’s first OBM certification.
