Description

Welcome to The OBM Educator. I'm your host, Amanda McVicker, a veteran Online Business Manager (or OBM) who serves six and seven figure entrepreneurs, as well as educates new OBMs with the skills and confidence they need to start and grow their own successful business. If you're an aspiring OBM looking to make more money, have more responsibilities, and serve clients at a higher level, then this is the podcast for you! Tune in every Thursday to not only learn something new, but also go behind the scenes of what it's really like to work as an OBM. We'll discuss it all - how to get and keep (and sometimes fire) clients, what OBMs actually do to serve their clients, how you can package and price your services, what bringing on a team looks like, how to cultivate an OBM mindset, and so much more! Whether you're looking for marketing tips, best practices with clients, or just want to know what an OBM is - this podcast is for you. Each week you'll join me for either a solo episode where I dive deep into a topic, or for an episode where I'm joined by a guest. I'm super excited to be bringing in a wide variety of guests to help show you the behind the scenes of the OBM world. You'll hear from current OBMs to hear how they grew their business, from business owners who have hired OBMs to get their perspective on the OBM relationship, from subject matter experts who can give their thoughts on different topics affecting OBMs, and then from aspiring OBMs in mini coaching sessions. Hit subscribe and follow along as I share my proven strategies to help you create and maintain a thriving OBM business that supports your life and business desires.
