Alright, let’s get real here. 😎
The holiday season is a bit like juggling flaming Christmas pudding – it’s dazzling, a bit dangerous, and not for the faint of heart, especially if you’re a business or career consultant.
In the world of consulting, December isn’t just about decking the halls and sipping eggnog; it’s about balancing client needs, wrapping up year-end strategies, and somehow managing to not turn into the Grinch. 🙅
That’s where we, the Online Business Managers (OBMs) and General Virtual Assistants (VAs), swing into action.
Think of us as Santa’s elves, if elves were super tech-savvy and had a knack for business strategy.

The Holiday Hustle: It’s Real
Imagine this: Emma, a business coach, is trying to guide her clients into the New Year with grace and Alex, a management consultant, wants to end the year on a high note. But let’s face it, the holiday season, with its myriad distractions, can make their professional lives look like a snow globe that’s been shaken a tad too vigorously.
