Virtual Assistant for Digital Agency Expansion - Cold Outreach & Business Development Focus

Hi there!
We’re two startup founders expanding our digital agency, Valorix, into Spain. Our goal is to help small and medium-sized businesses build their digital presence through smart, tailored solutions.

To stay focused on strategy and in-person work, we’re looking for a reliable, creative, and proactive Virtual Assistant to take ownership of tasks that can be handled behind the scenes. We’re specifically looking for someone with experience in cold outreach who can work autonomously and deliver results.

This is a long-term opportunity for someone who enjoys varied work, autonomy, and problem-solving.

What You'll Be Doing
You’ll support both business and personal tasks, including:
Cold Outreach & Lead Generation: Find local businesses (e.g. on Google Maps) with outdated or poorly designed websites, compile contact lists, and send messages or emails offering our services. You should be confident in cold outreach and capable of doing it independently with measurable results.
Research Tasks: For example, research local restaurants, services, or competitors, and compile structured findings.
Writing Business Plans & Proposals: From scratch, based on our notes, write documents, emails, or proposals in a professional, startup-friendly tone.
Content Creation: Draft and polish email templates, blog posts, or other content with our direction.
Managing Inbox & Calendar: Help with scheduling and following up on emails or calendar events.
Using AI Tools: Utilize ChatGPT and other tools to streamline content creation and communication.
Admin Tasks: Occasionally handle personal errands or small admin tasks online, such as researching products, services, or planning our move to Spain.

Perks & Benefits
