• Writing captions, organizing photos/videos, planning posts, and helping create a consistent social media schedule
• Helping with online marketing , review requests, customer follow-ups, website-related updates, and local brand-building
• Working directly with the owner on personal assistant and executive support tasks
• Helping manage tasks, reminders, scheduling, errands, organization, and follow-ups
• Returning calls, responding to texts/emails, and communicating with customers professionally
• Coordinating with electricians, office staff, customers, and management regarding job details and scheduling
• Organizing job notes, photos, customer information, estimate details, invoices, and internal documentation
• Using AI tools to help with writing, content ideas, marketing, customer communication, organization, and business systems
• Learning and working with tools such as ChatGPT, Claude, Claude Code, Canva, automation tools, CRM software, and custom internal platforms built by the owner
• Helping improve internal workflows, templates, checklists, and processes
• Filling in and helping wherever needed to keep the business moving smoothly
  

Ideal Candidate

We are looking for someone who is:

• Organized, reliable, and detail-oriented
• Creative and interested in social media and content creation
• A motivated self-starter who can take initiative
• Comfortable working directly with a business owner
• Flexible and willing to help wherever needed
• Professional and friendly when speaking with customers
• Comfortable with phone calls, texts, emails, scheduling, and follow-ups
• Interested in AI tools, automation, marketing, and business systems
• Comfortable learning new software, apps, and technology
• Able to manage multiple moving pieces without getting overwhelmed
• Honest, dependable, and easy to work with
• Comfortable in a small business environment where responsibilities may vary from day to day

Helpful Experience:

Experience in any of the following is helpful, but not required for the right person:

• Social media management or content creation
• Personal assistant or executive assistant work
• Administrative assistant or office coordinator experience
• Customer service, scheduling, or dispatching
• Marketing, branding, or small business support
• AI tools such as ChatGPT, Claude, Claude Code, Canva AI, automation tools, or similar platforms
• CRM or scheduling software such as Housecall Pro, ServiceTitan, Jobber, QuickBooks, Google Workspace, or similar systems
• Home service, construction, electrical, HVAC, plumbing, or other trade-related businesses
