About this Event
Hiring full-time staff isn’t always realistic, but that doesn’t mean your personal workload has to keep growing or that you need to turn down opportunities.
Join us for Localist Lab as Infomedia’s Carrie Rollwagen breaks down how to get the extra work done without overextending your budget. From hiring a Virtual Assistant to leveraging AI tools, you’ll learn what can actually be delegated, what should stay on your plate and how to create systems that save time instead of adding more to manage.
This free, in-person session is part of the Localist Lab event series (formerly One Quick Coffee). It expands on the Localist podcast by bringing practical, real-world marketing and operational strategies directly to the Birmingham community.
A Practical Guide to Part-Time Help: From Virtual Assistants to AI Tools
Many business owners know they need help but aren’t sure what to delegate, who to hire or how to do it without creating more work. In this conversation, you’ll learn how to find and hire a Virtual Assistant, what AI can realistically handle and how to offload tasks in a way that actually saves time.
Carrie will share practical insights from Infomedia, Uptick and Tempo to help you build smarter support systems, avoid common pitfalls and create more space to focus on what matters most.
