CPT-10848 Marketing & Administrative Virtual Assistant (Podcast Support)

Independent Contractor – [Marketing Podcast VA/Junior - Advanced Level] (Remote).

Overview

20four7VA is seeking offshore independent contractors to deliver remote services to clients worldwide, with a primary focus on developed markets such as the United States, the United Kingdom, Canada, and Australia.

Our client is the host of a fast-growing sports podcast that has seen significant audience and business growth over the past few years. As the podcast continues to scale, the client is seeking a reliable Virtual Assistant to help manage administrative and marketing-related tasks, allowing the host to focus more on creative and strategic work.

Role Summary
The Virtual Assistant will provide marketing and administrative support with a strong focus on newsletter management, calendar management, and content support for YouTube and social media. This is a part-time role (20 hours per week) suited for someone who is organized, proactive, and comfortable working in a digital media environment.

The objective of each engagement is to assist the client in improving business efficiency, enhancing service delivery, or supporting operational functions through high-quality, task-specific services rendered by a qualified contractor.

Scope of Services

Contractors will be required to provide services that align with the following client tasks:

Newsletter Management

• Manage and send weekly newsletters using Mailchimp
• Format content, schedule campaigns, and ensure timely delivery
• Maintain and organize subscriber lists as needed

Calendar & Administrative Support

• Manage and organize the client’s Google Calendar
• Help filter and manage incoming meeting requests and business inquiries
• Schedule calls, appointments, and podcast-related meetings

Content & Media Support

• Assist with YouTube content, including clipping and organizing podcast segments
• Support basic content repurposing for social media platforms
• Help take existing content further by organizing and preparing it for distribution

General Support

• Assist with other administrative or marketing-related tasks as needed
• Support day-to-day operations related to the podcast and brand growth

Tools & Platforms

• Mailchimp
• Google Workspace (Gmail, Google Calendar)
• YouTube
• Social media platforms (experience preferred)

EDITORIAL NEWSLETTER MANAGEMENT
The "Game On" Monday newsletter is not a simple promotional blast — it is an editorial product. The VA will be responsible for drafting a full editorial newsletter each week built around the following structure:

• The Open — Kevin's weekly take on the top sports story (drafted from Kevin's voice memos/bullet points)
• The Starting 5 — 5 curated sports stories with commentary
• The Deep Dive — expanded breakdown tied to that week's episode guest or theme
• Chasers Nation Corner — community spotlight, fan shoutout, or poll result
• This Week on Sports Chasers — episode recap and upcoming show preview with listen links
• The Closing Buzzer — a punchy closing thought or question in Kevin's voice

The VA drafts the full newsletter in Google Docs by Friday, submits to Kevin for a 30-minute review and approval, formats it in Mailchimp, and schedules delivery for Monday at 7:00 AM EST — ahead of the Monday night live show. The VA also monitors open and click rates and logs performance weekly in a Newsletter Tracker (Google Sheets).

ADVERTISEMENT & SPONSORSHIP OUTREACH
This is a critical addition to the role. As Sports Chasers continues to scale, we are actively seeking advertising partners and sponsors. The VA will be responsible for:
• Researching and identifying potential ad sponsors and brand partners relevant to the Sports Chasers audience
• Drafting and sending initial outreach emails on behalf of Sports Chasers
• Tracking all outreach in the existing SCMG Guest & Partner CRM (Google Sheets)
• Following up on open conversations with interested sponsors
• Flagging warm leads and qualified opportunities directly to Kevin for closing
• Familiarity with podcast advertising platforms (Acast, Spotify for Podcasters, Podbean, AdvertiseCast) is a strong plus

With 148K+ downloads, a #2 national Apple Podcasts ranking, and an international audience across seven countries, Sports Chasers has a compelling story to tell advertisers. The VA needs to be able to represent the brand professionally in written outreach.

ADDITIONAL PLATFORM & TOOL REQUIREMENTS:
• Comfort working with Restream or similar live-streaming platforms (we broadcast live Monday & Thursday)
• Familiarity with podcast platforms — Apple Podcasts, Spotify, etc.
• Guest coordination and episode prep documentation support
• Light CRM management via Google Sheets (7-stage guest and partner pipeline)
• PodMatch profile monitoring for guest sourcing

Each engagement is based on a defined scope of work and is governed by an independent contractor agreement. Services must be performed professionally, with adherence to any timelines, guidelines, and deliverables agreed upon in writing.
