There are many types of OBMs available, and finding the one that is right for your business is important.<\/p>\n

An OBM (Online Business Manager) with my skill set is someone who can bring your entire team together and make sure that the vision you have for your business is achieved by the people that carry out the tasks that make it happen.<\/p>\n

Once your business moves into the 6-figure range, things start to drastically change. Many business owners notice that their calendar requests get out of hand, they are unable to stay on top of the demand for their time, meetings get double booked, and appointments are harder to keep. Projects that you want to complete seem to take forever, or they never seem to get finished.<\/p>\n

As your business grows, so does your team. This means that you will also need to find that time to manage each team member along with the projects that you need to be completed.<\/p>\n

There are now so many more things for you to focus on that you can\u2019t seem to focus on any of them effectively.<\/p>\n

Each time you change your focus from working on<\/strong> your business to working in<\/strong> your business you notice a direct coloration to a decrease, in income.<\/p>\n

Having a great team to work in your business, and accomplish the tasks required as your business grows is important, but somehow you now need to manage them, their time and the tasks they are assigned to.<\/p>\n

You can use systems such as Asana or Trello to help all of you manage the tasks and track your process, but unfortunately, you still need to have a leader managing the process.<\/p>\n

When you look at your business right now, do you have the time and personal resources to oversee your business and the people who work in it, while you are out building high-level relationships, creating content and serving your clients?<\/p>\n

There are many times during your entrepreneur journey when you will navigate the waters of time vs money. In the beginning, you had a lot of time and no money, that was when you were running everything yourself. Next came the time when you were starting to feel the time crunch, but your income was just beginning to grow. The next phase is where you find yourself with very little time and a lot more money.<\/p>\n

After hiring your OBM you will find that now, you have your time back, and your income not only becomes consistent you are able to work on other income generating opportunities.<\/p>\n

The relationship between you and your OBM is an important one that will allow you to maintain control over your time and your money!<\/p>\n

Your OBM is the key to overseeing your entire business, guarding your time, and getting all of the things done in order for you to build your business the way you want it.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
