Website and Social Media Management

To make your website and social media really achieve your business goals, it needs to have a relevant content strategy including regular (at least monthly, thanks to Google!) uploading of fresh, high-quality content.

It’s one of those jobs that is often overlooked and becomes a niggle on that growing to-do list but it is essential your website is accurate and up-to-date, especially during business development activities.

We can help you by maintaining and updating your website, loading blogs and photos, keeping contact details up-to-date, and providing new content.

Social Media Management

Your Smart Assistant will liaise with you to determine a system that works best for you. Facebook, LinkedIn, Instagram, and more – they can all be time-consuming, and sometimes the platforms have anomalies that can frustrate those who are not frequent users.

With regular contact we work out a system that works best for your company, whether it’s a monthly brainstorm of ideas, spontaneous updates when something cool has just happened or a Smart Assistant managing your planned communication programme. Smart Assistant is all about finding the right system and structure that works for you.

Our typical monthly programme can include:

• Website Maintenance – Monthly News/Blog post for SEO plus ad hoc updates as required, all new content is then promoted out to your audience via social media.
• Social Media Management:
  • Facebook – Scheduled posts in Facebook “speak” + live ad hoc posts as required + responding to and monitoring all comments & Inbox messages
  • Instagram – Live posts Insta “speak” + responding to and monitoring all comments
  • LinkedIn – Live post in LinkedIn “speak” + responding to and monitoring all comments

eNewsletters

We can plan, create, send and manage all your eNewsletters to make this previously onerous but very necessary task a no-brainer for you. Sending out a regular eNews is one of the most cost effective, easiest ways to keep your database clean and up-to-date.

We load your stories, photos, video links, competitions, product updates, staff news and anything else you need into eNewsletter formats such as MailChimp or your bespoke email software. Drafts are then sent to you for comments, editing, alterations and once we’ve tidied up everything – it is sent to your database.

Typically, our clients aim for monthly newsletters – we will work to the frequency that best suits your business needs.

Event Management

When you need an event organised anywhere in New Zealand we can help you.

Smart Assistant can manage many of the early arrangements remotely and, if required, we can attend the event to assist with hands-on tasks. Often your team and the venue can manage tasks during the event, but we can pick up as much or as little of the event planning and co-ordination, as required. Your Smart Assistant will find venues, obtain quotes and review catering options.

We can also help with marketing the event, manage online bookings, changes, cancellations and inquiries. During the lead up to the big day, we will send confirmations and reminders to guests, arrange delegate material and documents, organise name tags and continue promoting the event.

While the event is underway, we can post content onto your social media platforms and, at the end of the day, we will do the follow up work.

We can collate and distribute speaker notes, sales leads, training information and good news stories to conference delegates.

Publicity Opportunities

Smart Assistant is always looking for ways to increase the profile of clients and if we see a media opportunity that matches your marketing goals – we’ll let you know. This could be a feature in a magazine, support of a community event or an advertisement on the radio.
