Here are some tasks that you can immediately delegate to a virtual website assistant from Pearl Lemon Outsourcing:

Website Information Audits

About 47% of your website visitors will look at your services and products before moving on to the next page. This could be great, as it indicates that people are curious about what you have to offer. If your website isn’t helpful enough, visitors will just go to your competitors’ websites until they find one that is.

Our virtual website assistants can help you evaluate the informational content on your website, make corrections and additions, and work on keywords and search engine optimization that will help draw even more visitors to your website.

Content Creation

By now, you’ve probably heard that content is king. But why is that? The days of reprinting uninspired classified ads in the local paper are long gone. Audiences are online, marketing has moved to the digital realm, and content development is more essential than ever before.

Every day, most people are exposed to between 4,000 and 10,000 advertisements. Because we are constantly bombarded with information, it is critical for businesses to develop strategies to stand out. And it is just this that great content enables people to achieve.

Scheduling Assistance

If you operate a business that relies on website leads, it’s a good idea to hire a website assistant to help you with the process of converting those leads. You can integrate them with your calendars so that they can simply book a phone consultation based on those who fill out your online “schedule a consultation” form, for example.

Customer service. It’s critical that customers who contact your business because they have a specific problem feel heard. The difficulty is that, as the owner of the company, you may not always have the time or energy to offer great customer service, especially if you’re focused on other things like the day to day running of your business.

Working with Pearl Lemon Outsourcing gives you access to experienced, professional customer service focused virtual website assistants who can provide the stellar customer service your customers expect, but you don’t have the time to provide.

Website Design

Maybe you don’t believe a business needs a visually attractive website to be successful. But did you know that 38% of internet visitors will abandon a website if it doesn’t appear appealing?

Outsource the task to a virtual website assistant, who can improve the appearance of your website. But that’s not all. Customer experience (CX) is another very important element of any successful business website, but creating an optimal experience for your website visitors is an art in itself. As well as a big time suck, something you really don’t need.

Pearl Lemon Outsourcing’s virtual website assistants can help you with every aspect of your website’s design – or redesign, from ensuring that the visuals match your brand image to taking care of any CX work to ensuring that your site is fast and mobile-friendly, two musts both in the eyes of search engines and human users.

However, to be most effective, you need to create, publish and publicize content on a regular basis. Written content alone is also no longer enough for many businesses either, you also need to create on-brand, captivating visual and audio content as well. Lots of businesses don’t have a great content creation and content marketing strategy, though.

This isn’t because they don’t understand the importance of content marketing, most of them do. They simply don’t have the time, or resources to devote to it. Working with a virtual website assistant from Pearl Lemon Outsourcing will ensure that you have someone on your team who has the time, talent and dedication you need to make the most of the many benefits content marketing has to offer to anyone.
