Opportunity Overview
We help therapists grow their businesses through better marketing, websites, messaging, and digital products. We’re looking for someone who isexcellent with automation and systems, especially GoHighLevel and Zapier, and who also genuinely enjoys helping people.This person will play an important role in making our business easier to run. You’ll help us improve and automate the systems behind our sales and client communication, support Heather with leads and follow-up, respond to clients and prospective clients, and step in when something needs to be figured out.
We’re looking for someone who naturally thinks:
“How can I make this easier?”“Can this be automated?”“What does this person need from me?”“I can figure this out.”
You should be comfortable building behind the scenesandcommunicating directly with our internal team and with clients via email. Some days you may be fixing a GoHighLevel workflow or building a Zap. Other days you may be answering a therapist’s question, sending a proposal, helping Heather stay on top of leads, or noticing that a process is creating unnecessary work and finding a better way to do it. You like helping people, solving problems, and making things run smoothly.
Role Summary
The Administrative & Sales Support Coordinator will support the day-to-day systems, sales administration, and client communication.
A major part of this role isowning and improving our automations inside GoHighLevel and Zapier.You should be able to look at an existing workflow, understand what it is trying to accomplish, troubleshoot when something isn’t working, and identify opportunities to make the process simpler or more efficient.
You’ll also be an important support person for Heather and Taylor. That means helping manage leads, following up when someone hasn’t responded, getting proposals out quickly, answering client and prospective-client questions, and making sure people feel looked after.
Our clients are primarily therapists, so the way you communicate matters. We want someone who is warm, patient, thoughtful, enthusiastic, and able to explain things clearly without sounding robotic or overly corporate. We’re happy to incorporate AI in our responses as long as they feel authentic.
You don’t need to know the answer to absolutely everything. You do need to be resourceful enough to find the answer, understand the context, and know when something truly needs to be escalated.
