I'm an Operations & Systems Virtual Assistants who builds the workspaces, CRMs, and processes that run a business day to day backed by 6+ years of real B2B field sales experience and HubSpot Sales Hub certification. Most Virtual Assistants come from an admin background and learn the business side later. I come from sales. I've managed multi-regional accounts and worked inside live pipelines, so I build systems people actually use, not just tidy pages. How I help: • Notion workspaces ,I build dashboards, databases, SOP libraries, client portals, and project/task systems. • CRM & sales ops HubSpot (certified): Setup, cleanup, pipelines, automation, and reporting. •HubSpot Marketing Hub (Certified): Marketing Campaigns, Segmentations , Landing Pages , Insights and reporting dashboard and workflow mapping. • Project & process : Asana and Notion project management, documentation, and clean handovers. • Content & communication : Social media content planning, client emails, proposals, and follow-ups. Practical and reliable: I work remotely from South Africa (UTC+2), communicate in English and Afrikaans, and respond within 24 hours. I work independently, document what I do, and hand it over clearly. If you need a calmer, more organized business let's talk.
