I help 6 & 7-figure female coaches build their dream team and optimize their operations & marketing systems so they can scale 📈 SUSTAINABLY 🌱 I'm Hayleigh Bailey, a Team & Tech Integrator, Ops Strategist, and Online Business Optimizer. Some people might also call me an Online Business Manager. I’ve had many hats in the behind the scene of female-owned, impact-driven, online businesses. In the past 4 years I’ve helped dozens of 6 & 7-figure entrepreneurs run their businesses efficiently and sustainably, all while building my own multiple 6-figure digital service agency. If you’re here you’re probably looking for the “right fit” to support your business, but who is that exactly? A virtual assistant? A project manager? Sometimes we don’t know what we are looking for, and can end up wasting a lot of time and money hiring, training, and managing the “wrong fit”. I've perfected a selection-process and onboarding system that ensures you get the support you need with someone you love working with, and expert guidance on where to allocate your budget for the greatest return on your energy, time, and money. Looking for someone to run the show so you don’t have to? You’re still in the right place. I get it, you didn’t get into this business to be the boss of a team. Maybe you even left that role in your 9-5 and now here you are, managing a team again. Get back in your genius zone girl, and let my team take care of the soon-to-be organized chaos in the behind the scenes of your business. Client love: "I seriously don't know where my business (or sanity!) would be without Hayleigh. In the few months we've been working together, not only has she taken so much off my plate, but I have almost doubled my income and just had my first $100K cash month. CASH MONTH. That NEVER could have happened without her support, incredible work ethic, and creative eye. I was able to scale without adding more time to my plate, and truly focus on MY zone of genius and spend time with my loved ones. She is so well versed in many different tech platforms but also really anticipates my needs. If you want someone who's not only professional, prompt, and delivers exceptional work, but also is FUN to work with, go with Hayleigh!" - Megan Yelaney Here are just a few of the reasons you'll wish you started working with me sooner: ✔ Professional communication. I'll ask the right questions to make sure I have everything needed to get things done perfectly for you. ✔ Appreciate punctuality? You can count on me to deliver everything on time. ✔ Leadership and direction to motivate & manage your team effectively so they deliver passion-driven, quality work. ✔ A systemized approach to business that aims to automate your process & eliminate human error in your day-to-day operations & marketing. My process: 🗝 In a free 45-minute consultation call we figure out which of the 3 kinds of support you need and outline a plan for how my agency can support you: 🟩 Ongoing standard support from a VA, project manager, social media manager, content manager, etc. 🟩 Done with you online business management: I optimize and manage the behind-the-scenes of your business with your existing team. 🟩 Done for you online business management 💎: work with me and my team & hand off your operations completely to curated team of professionals. 🗝 An intelligently-designed onboarding process aimed at setting up your project management tool to organize your systems with enhanced efficiency. Don’t make the same mistake so many coaches make when hiring a new team member because their business coach told them to outsource it. Do it right the first time & save loads of money (and heaps of stress and frustration) in the long run. Let’s take a real assessment of what your business needs and who can actually support you in reaching your growth goals. Client love: Give Back Digital truly changed my life. I had been hesitant about taking on a VA because of the investment and being in the "first year of business". If someone had been able to truly express to me how much of a difference it was to have the support of a VA when you're trying to start a business and all the pieces that are involved in that, I would have happily and excitedly jumped in and made the investment. It was only a couple weeks after hiring my VA I felt immense relief from my usual overwhelm. Having the support of my VA took a huge load off me and I realized how amazing it was to be able to have my VA do the tasks I least liked to do, so I could have more space to be creative and do more in the areas I truly loved! So grateful for the GBD Team. They supported me in the whole process, from finding a great fit VA, to onboarding her and teaching me how to effectively delegate tasks and create the necessary systems to make my business run smoothly. Lindsay Clunes Thanks for learning more about me. I'm looking forward to creating more time for you to spend in your genius zone. Hayleigh

I am skilled in professional writing, event organizing, and photography. I am also fairly experienced with customer service and food packaging. • Writing: If you need a proofreader, editor, or someone to write a whole report/essay, I'll be a good fit for you. I have written many of my own poems, essays, and short stories, throughout my lifetime. • Event Organization: If you need someone who can work under pressure in a fast setting, coordinate specific themes, help out with food, decoration, moving, ect, I'm your girl. I have a location reference at Woodmere Elementary, where I helped with organizing a fair. I'm very adaptive when it comes to both solo and teamwork. • Photography: Anywhere from capturing a first date moment, to taking photos of a rock and roll band, I snap pictures that always make you feel as if you're in the moment, years later, in real time. Some of my best work has been noted taking footage with the band Cherrybomb13. • Customer Service: Whether you need assistance over the phone, getting a good meal, or just need help with finding something, I like to be resourceful, and aid people to what they're trying to do/where they're trying to go. I worked at WinCo Foods for a little over a year. This job also involved Food Packaging and Food Handling.
