Super Easy Task Instructions for Your Virtual Assistant: Create a Landing Page

Entrusting your virtual assistant (VA) with the task of creating a landing page can be a daunting challenge, especially when conveying your design preferences and ensuring the backend setup aligns with your vision. Miscommunication in this task can lead to wasted time and a diminished passion for your project.

Imagine a scenario where unclear instructions result in a landing page that doesn't capture your brand essence or lacks the necessary backend functionalities. This misalignment can lead to missed opportunities and a loss of enthusiasm for your marketing efforts.

In this blog article, we'll guide you through the process of effectively assigning the task of creating a landing page to your VA, ensuring your vision is accurately realized.

What You Need to Prepare:

Before delegating the task, gather the following data, information, and files to empower your VA in creating an impactful landing page:

• References for Landing Page Design (color schemes, branding elements, etc.)

• Content for the Landing Page (text, images, videos, etc.)

• Backend Settings (form integrations, analytics, etc.)

• Call-to-Action (CTA) and Conversion Goals

• Any Specific Instructions for Design and Functionality

*If you will be providing references or attachments with a heavy file size, please try to reduce/compress the file size first before sending it to your VA.
