Job Description

Small Business Assistant

Awakening Business Solutions

Awakening Business Solutions is a business development company who offers training and coaching programs to micro business owners; retail and serviced based. Most of our clients have less than five employees. Many of our clients are solo-entrepreneurs.

My business is growing and I am needing to hire someone to do the various jobs that I either am challenged to do, don't enjoy doing or just are not getting done because I am too busy.

It will begin with a few hours per week and the right person will be someone who is so efficient and skilled that they will insure their job stability and increase in hours as well.  I can perceive a 10 hour per week job very soon and eventually half time. I would view you as an important member of my team, and therefore the commitment to growing with the company is the intention I seek. If you are amazing and wonderful but need to stay at 10 hours that can be ok too.

Job will be a combination of the following tasks:

• Product development organization:

Desktop publishing help.              

Researching print on demand.             

Helping get books ready for printing and selling.

• Internet marketing including:

Setting up affiliate links on my blog.

Maintaining social networking sites.

Submitting articles to on-line article sites including Squidoo and Hub Pages

Setting up my newsletter on Aweber.

• General office organizing and filing:             

Creating invoices occasionally.             

Sorting business cards etc.

Doing what's needed.

Qualifications. 

The ideal candidate must be:

•  A extremely organized and detailed oriented person; someone who enjoys doing things right and correct. High quality is utmost important to you and one of your values.

•  Primary learning style is audio, with a quick mind, picks up verbal directions easily and has good critical thinking skills. Can take a job and do it correctly without a lot of  interaction.

• Highly competent on the internet and knowing some light code would be a bonus.  Enjoys the net and has a bit of a techy type brain.

• Someone who has an interest in my business and supports what we are doing. Someone who has visited on my website, read my newsletter, owned a small business, a part time home business or at least interested in small business and making money.

•  Very literate and can write and spell well.

• Has excellent communication skills and is not afraid to speak out or offer opinions. Has done professional development and personal growth and is confident, easy-going and fun to work with.

_________________________

The job will mainly be at my home office in NE Portland near Concordia University, however some parts can be done virtually. Having your own Mac laptop would be a big plus but not required. 

Hours to begin with will be one half day per week, likely  either Monday afternoons or Tuesdays mornings and/or some work done virtually but not right away.

This could be an excellent job for a student or someone who has their own home based business and needs some cash flow on the side. It  could be a good job for a full time parent who wants to get back into the work world slowly. Someone who lives nearby would be ideal.

To apply please follow this process.

1.   Please send a letter via e-mail explaining your interest, why you feel qualified and how it would fit into your life.  A short resume is ok but please don't send a long resume as I will not likely read it.

2. Phone interview next if you appear to be a good fit.

3. Face- to face interview.

Remuneration:   $12-14 hour to start and will eventually increase.
