Host Karalee Gault chats with Chay Hardy, founder of Chay Creates LLC, about how virtual assistants can help with tasks like photography, content creation, and marketing.

Key Takeaways

1. Virtual Assistants Can Help You Expand Your Creative Capacity: Chay helps entrepreneurs, entertainers, and artists expand their creative capacity by providing services like photography, content creation, and media and marketing assistance.
2. Importance of Clear Communication and Setting Boundaries: When working with a virtual assistant, clear communication and setting boundaries are crucial. This includes outlining deadlines, expectations, and providing a social media approval board (if applicable).
