Seeking Health Food Start Up Assistant

Beverly Hills CA

Description

Hello! Seeking a right-hand person in the venture of my start up business. This post is going to be very in depth as to not mislead anyone into thinking this is an easy gig. I will immediately start by saying that start ups are a lot of work, you wear many hats, and things are always changing. You have to be comfortable in this type of fast paced environment, and be along for the ride. Seeking someone who is a true self starter, self initiator, who when they see something that can be better, they make a note of it, they bring it up, they even start working on resolving the issue themselves without having to be told. I will follow that by saying that this is a start up with a lot of potential, given the great concept and work already put into it. Essentially, we are at a point in which it a revamp and strategic planning on the next moves to take this company to elevate it to the next level. I have become so busy with the current existing operations to be able to keep up with all moving parts, and truly need a right-hand person I can rely on to help me grow all aspects of this business by using good judgment, asking questions when necessary, and having the confidence to calling shots when it is appropriate. I really need someone responsible that I can rely on, with a good head on their shoulders. Preferably with some experience in running their own business themselves, or participating in a startup company. About us: We are in the food industry with a traditional cuisine that consists of most everyones favorite dishes, except healthier versions of them. We identify the ingredients used in a dish or product, and we highlight any of those which contribute to making the food product considered "unhealthy". There are always healthy factors to all foods, but the foods loose their potential of being healthy when combined with harmful, toxic ingredients as well. By using natural substitute ingredients, we are able to significantly reduce these unhealthy factors by eliminating the ingredient(s) which harnessed them, and replacing it for something very similar. Our selection of ingredient replacement has been researched, developed and refined over the course of 4-5 years now, and we can confidently say that the finished product is similar in quality, taste and texture to reflect the item we are replicating. There has been a lot of research and development put into this project and we are confident in our products exceeding the expectations of anyone, especially in comparrison to products that exist in the market today. This business is very mission-oriented, and was conceived as a passion project. The more and more I worked on it I began to see the potential for massive success in it becoming a worldwide recognized brand, due to the problem it solves for society, health, and wellness in the easiest way. I am confident that it will be a crazed product due to the the delicious taste, quality, and the guilt-free indulgence. Who doesn't want to eat delicious food, and have it also be good for them? Our true intention is that by maximum brand exposure, we will be spreading our company's mission and values, in efforts to promote the use of healthier, alternative ingredients. We hope also to encourage ending the use of any popular harmful ingredients by identifying them, and their respective substitute ingredient. Our goal is to inspire great societal change. This is a brand that can revolutionize food, eating, and the industry as a whole, as well as make a happier, healthier world to live in. We want to make a serious change in this viscous food-health-pharmaceutical-public knowledge cycle by making a huge statement, by use of branding, marketing, personal influence through my personal following, as well as the following we have built from ours years in business. We currently have a restaurant operation we are expanding, and as well as a new line of food products in the making. If you are reading this entire listing please reply with the phrase your thoughts become your reality. Otherwise I will not entertain your interest in this position. If you are a visionary, and entrepreneurial spirit, an out of the box thinker, a practical and productive worker, a reliable confidant and business partner, then I believe together we can spread awareness of this innovative approach to healthy eating. When executed and scaled properly, the profitability will follow dependent on the amount and quality of work we each put in. That is when it will get very exciting, and the potential for growth for you in this company, starting on the ground level will be limitless respective to the amount of work, effort, and progress you contribute to this company. The ideal candidate is a hard worker, responsible, diligent, practical and well spoken. Able to reliably communicate and coordinate with customers, vendors and employees. Focus on customer success Identifying customer needs (what do the customers want, what do consumers of this industry want, what is not already available in this industry market) Identify potential customer solutions (how to make getting what the consumer wants to them easier and more efficiently, be it through web design/user experience, strategic sales methods and channels) Implementing solutions which streamline the user experience of the consumer And of course, any customer problem resolution as it comes up. Strategic thinking Planning, researching, and developing well thought out plans for perhaps, something to incorporate at the restaurant. Or, which category of food product is in most demand in the health food market today. Financial Planning Ensuring that we are keeping company costs at the lowest possible, (tip: the more we save, the more room for bonuses and raises for yourself especially the more we grow and the more we profit) Delegation By no means are you expected to single handedly tackle all tasks associated in this project or in a start up company. You will be provided with the resources to delegate any tasks you feel more comfortable, or confident in delegating to another person rather than working on yourself. Delegation is the key to any business, as we can not all be expected to do everything all of the time. In order to excel in this skill, you must be a reliable, clear and consistent communicator with those you are delegating tasks with. Create deadlines, milestones, clear project direction, and follow up with them along the way by checking their progress, identifying any issues to quickly steer them in the right direction as soon as possible. If work is submitted that is not up to par, you are responsible for ensuring it is revised until it is to our standard of quality. At your disposal will be a team of virtual assistants based in the U.S. which I have plenty of hours available to me to use on a monthly basis. Tasks are able to be distributed as one-time tasks, as well as ongoing and repetitive tasks. Building the ideal e-dream team for majority of backend work We can assign different virtual assistants for different tasks to ensure consistency, reliability, and brand knowledge. All of which come naturally with a long term working relationship (Examples of tasks that can be delegated: web design, content writing, administrative assistance, graphic design, marketing, sales, app development, online brand presence management, customer service representative, financial planning and bookkeeping, but not limited to) Together we can discuss how you would feel most comfortable being brought on, given this is a considerable amount of tasks all over the charts. We could start with a few to focus on in the beginning, and increasing the focus areas as time goes on. The time intervals can be determined by yourself. We will implement a pay structure which incorporates a fair work load and compensation amount, which will increase with increased responsibilities over time. This will all be mapped out for you and in writing to ensure your confidence. I am a very fair person to those who are fair to me in respect to the work they put into my company. By creating such job compensation tiers I hope to demonstrate that my vision is for the individual who fills this position, to be in it for the long-game, as it will benefit us both equally and tremendously. This is a great opportunity. But it will take a lot of work, courage, and resiliency. Probably best fit for someone who has the ability to be flexible with their time, and not constrained by family or children. Will explain all information in more depth and clarity once I have sent and received back from you a signed NDA. Please reply to this post with 1.
