Digital Media Admin Assistant Needed (In-Person) (West Seattle - Delridge)
Your real job title would be "Chaos Tamer / Calm Maker" but nobody knows what that means so I called it "Digital Media Admin Assistant" instead. :)
THE ROLE:
I live in West Seattle and need in-person help with:
-Getting my analog media files converted to digital
-Getting my digital files organized, upscaled and edited
-Getting my edited files posted to social media / youtube / Podcasts
-Getting any other bottleneck causing workflow chaos that comes up along the way neutralized
ABOUT ME:
I'm a 4th generation Serial Entrepreneur, Chief Marketing Officer, Hypnotherapist, Content Creator and former professional touring musician, speaker and entertainer who has created more brand identities and areas of expertise between 1994 and today than I can count.
WHAT SUCCESS LOOKS LIKE:
I have legions of various types of media files from various projects, categories, businesses, niches, lifetimes that need to go from a metaphorical 1,000 piece jigsaw puzzle spilled out all over the floor to a beautifully coherent and completed puzzle of beauty and magnificence.
The final result will look like:
1 - A fully architected, segmented, coherent, and populated social media ecosystem across all the various social media platforms for all the various segments of my personal, project and company brands (Perhaps 15 -25 different brand / project identities / profiles?? We’ll find out!)
2 - The boxes of analog media such as paper photos, video tapes, cassette tapes, CD’s, DVD’s, and the equipment to play them that’s currently living in my attic will no longer exist because we’ve digitized them and I won’t have to worry about them getting destroyed or move them next time I move to a new place of living.
3 - You are like, “This is the coolest project I’ve ever done and I’m so glad I did this! Look at all we’ve accomplished!” Yup. : )
- You get to help me create awesome, rad, interesting, fun media stuff
- You get to take ownership and think for yourself without being micromanaged
- You get to work with me and I'm considered reasonably tolerable by most people and don't take myself too seriously
- My leadership approach is to identify as many ways as possible to help you accomplish your goals through our work together.
- Anything you don't know how to do, but need to know how to do in order to get the job done, that I already know how to do - I will train you on
- Anything I don’t know how to do, but you know how to do - I will let you be the boss of and teach me how to do instead of being a condescending know-it-all.
YOU'LL LOVE THIS GIG IF:
- You enjoy consuming social media and/or podcasts and/or youtube
- You're interested in entrepreneurship and / or marketing / branding
- You're into health / wellness / personal development / spirituality / consciousness
- You're into music and / or live music and / or live events
- You're into creating content, videography, or photography
- You have aspirations of building a career in marketing, music & entertainment, health & healing, building a personal brand, or becoming an entrepreneur
- You're into AI or AI curious
YOU'LL BE EXCELLENT AT THIS GIG IF:
- You're already a video editor, photographer, graphic designer, content creator, social media manager, or influencer
- You're proficient with Google Drive / Workspace
- You're proficient with ChatGPT / Claude
- You’re already using generative AI tools in your workflows and / or building agentic workflows to create or edit media or automate any type of tasks
- You have experience as a marketer / brand strategist or are studying business or marketing
ROLE REQUIREMENTS:
1 - In-Person Only - This role requires you to use actual physical devices to manipulate actual physical objects that exist in the 3D world (like paper photographs, video tapes, CD's, DVD's and external hard drives wired into desktop computers) and therefore must be conducted in-person, on-site, IRL and not over the internet. The whole point is to get things that aren't on the internet - ready and able to be put on the internet.
2 - Must have the capacity to think for yourself and work independently - This is not an established SOP you’re stepping into. We’ll be figuring out the priorities and best way to get this done together, as we go.
3 - Must have the ability to work independently - After we get a particular workflow figured out together, you’ll need to be able to self motivate and self manage. Reason being - The less you need me, the more I can go work on other things that make money, so I can pay you with that money I made doing something that isn’t this. 😛 The more time you can work without me, the more money I can go make to get you even more money.
4 - Must have the ability (and desire) to independently learn, research and problem solve - We may run into things we want to accomplish that neither one of us have an existing best practice blueprint for, so you may need to “find” the best solution on both of our behaves.
5 - Must have your own reliable transportation - Not the bus. Nobody has time for that. I know, it’s sounds stupid, but I can tell you honestly that the literal #1 reason I've lost any any and all of my previous helpers has been because they simply couldn't get here due to transportation issues. (I’ve even considered buying a company car in order to specifically solve this problem. But so far - I don’t have an extra car for you. My apologies. )
6 - Must be proficient on Apple products - Ideally you already own an iphone and Macbook (But I have extras, if you don't)
NOT REQUIRED:
1 - You don't need to be a tech genius, software developer, graphic designer, social media expert, etc. But if you do happen to be an expert at something I suck at, we'll defer to you.
For any tasks I need help with, we can discuss your skill level in that area and assign whatever tasks make sense for your skill and experience level and I’ll train you up on whatever you need to know beyond that.
BASIC CATEGORIES OF THE TASKS AT HAND ARE:
1 - Analog Media Digitization (Film Camcorder Tapes, Paper Photos, & Audio Cassettes converted into MP4’s, JPEGS & MP3’s)
2 - Digital File Organization (Transferring, Labeling, De-duplicating, etc)
3 - Ai Training (Uploading my knowledge base to build agentic workflows / avatars, etc)
4 - Video Editing (Maybe)
5 - Social Media Management (Maybe)
YOUR FIRST 30 DAYS:
I’ll be honest - 90% of the clarity around exactly what, how and when you’ll be doing whatever you’ll be doing will be determined by us kicking around the can and figuring out the best plan based on your skills, availability, pay, etc.
If you were standing in my office this second asking for something to do, the first few things that come to mind are:
1 - Have you start carefully de-duplicating, renaming, organizing and transferring my existing digital files off of my old hard drives that are failing onto my new external physical drives
2 - Have you run my longform podcast interview audio clips through an Ai transcriber and identify / label each of the separate speakers in the transcription, so the final transcription can then be fed into a different ai to act as a knowledge base to generate new content and potentially build an AI coaching agent from. (I do already have this workflow figured out, there’s just a lot to go through)
3 - Somehow sorting, cleaning, purging and architecting an organization system for all the screenshots, photos, and videos that have stacked up in my icloud / google photos to lay the groundwork for a matching / dual back system of cloud storage and physical hard drive storage
4 - Research the best way to architect multiple account login structures for Tik-Tok, YouTube and IG and create new profiles for each of the brand / niche / categories we intend to post content to later + fixing the linked profile functions between my “should be linked but aren’t” Facebook & IG profiles. (I’ve got this architecture problem mostly figured out for IG and YouTube, but it’s been a while since I visited the topic so we’d need to refresh and make sure we know what we’re doing to set up the multiple login / separate account in a way that isn’t going to cause problems later)
TO APPLY, SHARE:
1 - The neighborhood you live in / distance from Delridge in West Seattle
2 - What type of transportation you have
3 - How many hours per week you'd like to spend helping me with this
4 - How much money you'd need to make for that amount of time to be worth it for you
5 - How enjoyable this task sounds to you on a scale of 1-10 AND why you picked that number but not a lower number or higher number
6 - Any relevant skills / experience you have or anything else you'd like me to know : )
Thanks for taking the time to read, possibly have ai summarize for you, and responding. 😛

TO GIVE YOU AN IDEA OF THE SCOPE / VIBE OF PROJECTS WE'D BE WORKING ON:
*We’ll also have home improvement, relationship advice, and perhaps some auto racing, and esoteric / spiritual / woo-woo content to process as well. I don’t have channels built for those yet.*
