Hi! I'm James, a dedicated and results-driven General Virtual Assistant with over 7 years of experience in the BPO industry. Throughout my career, I’ve worn many hats—technical support representative, customer service agent, email support, content moderator, and sales associate—which has equipped me with a diverse and adaptable skill set.
I’ve recently transitioned into the freelance space, specializing in Lead Generation for eCommerce businesses. I work with tools like SmartLead, Apollo, and Hunter.io to collect high-quality leads, enabling sales and marketing teams to focus on conversion. My approach is always research-driven, organized, and tailored to meet campaign goals.
I trained under FAVA and Coach Monique, where I built a strong foundation in Virtual Assistance. I’m always eager to learn new skills and take on challenges, including social media management, where I’m currently expanding my expertise.
Whether you're looking for someone to help grow your business pipeline or provide reliable virtual support, I bring commitment, efficiency, and a positive attitude to the table.
Let’s connect and explore how I can support your business goals!
