Until it’s possible to clone yourself,
partnering with a Project Manager
or OBM is the next best substitute.
We get it. Working in a small business sometimes leaves you longing for another manager to collaborate with and think-through challenging strategies or hand-off the whole project while you focus on development ventures or launch new income-generating projects. Who do you turn to? Either an OBM (an Online Business Manager) or a Project Manager; depending on the size and demands of what’s needed.
Determining if your business is ready
Unsure if you need a Virtual Assistant to serve as a Project Manager for something specific in your business?
Or, if you need an OBM to play a bigger role and walk beside you in running your business?
The good news is MaplewoodVA
is experienced and skilled
in both levels of support.
Here are four recognized criteria to determine if your business has the size, foundation, and sustainability to support needing an OBM:
- First and most importantly, you must have an established business to manage or acknowledge you’re a young business which isn’t quite grown to this point yet.
- Next, you have already defined your target market, you have marketing systems up and running, you have services or products your established customer base that’s actively purchasing (over and over), AND you have a proven business foundation which is solid and growing.
- If your business is grossing $15K or more monthly, your business is in a position to bring on (and sustain) management level team members.
- If you find you are spending more time doing tasks which run the business rather than being the leader of your business where you focus on leading, on development and research, on making strategic connections, and on growing your business.
If you’re not quite at the OBM level, we CAN help you grow by serving as your Project Manager.

The Long Meadow Volunteer Fire Company contracted with Ruth to completely dismantle our out-of-date website and produce us a modern website complete with pages on our company history, apparatus, officer profiles, events, call photos, donation, and a safety blog. Ruth was extremely proficient at communicating with us on the current status of the project and advising us of what information she would be in need of next. She was able to keep the entire project moving forward on a fast but manageable schedule [completely revamped with new images and copy and published within 60 days!] while editing articles and copywriting materials as they were sent to her for review and publishing. As the project approached completion Ruth also completely revamped our companies internal email management. Ruth was a pleasure to work with and the Fire Company could not possibly be more pleased with the quality of the finished product.
