Spring Cleaning Your VA Business Part 2: Social Media Accounts

May 9, 2013 by Alicia Leave a Comment

This post is Part 2 in our Spring Cleaning series. You can catch Part 1 here. Spring is often a time when you decide to do a little spring cleaning around the house, get rid of things you haven’t used or looked at in years and spruce things up a bit.

This is a little reminder that you can do the same with your virtual assistant business. Use this as a chance to reevaluate your business, refocus if needed and reorganize. This series of posts will help you do just that!

In this post, we’ll take a look at your social media accounts. When is the last time you checked all of your profiles for consistency? You want to present a solid, consistent message about your virtual assistant business across the board. Here are some things to reevaluate or refresh in your social media accounts:

Click. Fix. Repeat.

Click. Fix. Repeat.

  • Profile picture. Is it up to date? Are you using the same photo in all accounts so that people recognize you and your business?
  • About/Description/Profile. Now that you’ve reevaluated your business plan and goals in the first part of this series, be sure that this main section on your accounts is up to date, consistent and accurate.
  • Check links to be sure that they work. Now would be a good time to switch up where you send people to in your links or offer a new freebie.
  • Update Layout. Facebook changes the look of their timeline, Twitter changes your profile page and LinkedIn recently created a whole new look. These things happen often in social media. Make sure that you take a minute to check in and keep up with the times.
  • Add new experience/education. Have you recently taken a new course or added to your services? Did you receive an award? Make sure you add these things to your social profiles.
  • Group participation. Evaluate the groups that you’re a member of on the various social media platforms. Which ones do you really participate in? Pare down your groups to the ones that are truly of value to you.

Did I miss anything? What have you come across when freshening up your social media accounts? Leave a comment below or leave a voice message using the purple tab to the right. We love hearing from you!

About Alicia

Alicia Jay began her foray into the online world when she found herself very pregnant and very laid off in a down-turned economy. She discovered Loretta Oliver and became a student of her Transcription Crash Course.

Over time, she has built up her own general transcription business while perfecting her skills and gaining the trust and respect of her clients. She now teaches others how to master transcription.

In an effort to give back, Alicia recently created newVAadvice.com, a site where she shares her journey of becoming a Virtual Assistant in the hopes of inspiring other women to follow their dreams of having a business that works around their lives—not the other way around!
