Lyra Almoite<\/a>, a Southeast Asia and Philippine-based entrepreneur, is a leading executive in project and business management. She has worked with different individuals using her branding and social media abilities to gauge businesses and manage her own. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

With her several years in the industry, Lyra has gone through many experiences. Now, let’s see into her success and business journey. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Can you tell us how you started in the industry?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Lyra Almoite:<\/strong> I used to be a freelancer to local establishments in my hometown while I was in college, doing graphic designs and handling their social media accounts. I guess I have been in the freelancing industry for the longest time. When I graduated, my dream was to go up the corporate ladder and have a name in the industry, at least in my hometown. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, working in the corporate world and taking the marketing job for homegrown brands for a couple of years was not as fulfilling as I thought my career path would be. I could only obtain the best vacation days during my five vacation leave and five sick leave, not to mention the office politics, and pay was not that much. Thus, I quit my job and tried my luck in getting remote work. Luckily, after three months of being unemployed, I was able to get a job at an agency as a Project Manager.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I loved the remote job because I could travel and work from home, but working in an agency or being employed in general still felt limiting. So, I started getting little projects on the side and looking for other businesses to start from home. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

How did your journey go before you became an Online Business Manager?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Lyra Almoite: <\/strong>Eventually, I felt the need to quit my job and started taking in clients. However, I went into thinking; I don’t know what am I. Am I a Project Manager? Virtual Assistant? Social Media Manager? Graphic Designer? Copywriter? I kept wondering all of these because carrying one label or expertise is an understatement since I can pretty much do all that work. At that moment, I felt like I have become a jack of all trades and master of none by being a project manager who dips her hands in many projects. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

“My mindset back then was I can’t manage things that I don’t know. That is why I try to know and understand every moving part.” Lyra states.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I also deal with my own business, and I was a one-person team. Perhaps, that was where I learned those. I have no idea what I was back then or what I am offering, so I pitch to everything I know I can pull off.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

When did you find yourself being an Online Business Manager?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Lyra Almoite: <\/strong>After pitching everything I know I can do, I did get some clients, but I did not enjoy those projects, and they were not long-term. Then, I came across a group of people who call themselves Online Business Managers<\/a>. I thought maybe I am this one, so I took days researching what they do, how they position themselves, what they offer, and how the position works. Whatever they do feels right and spot-on for me.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Who was your first business client?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Lyra Almoite:<\/strong> My first client was Mandy Fransz, Founder of Make A Leap Digital<\/a> and a mentor. It was even a work-exchange because I need her to teach me how to utilize LinkedIn to take in clients, build a strong online brand, and more.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Eventually, she became a client who referred clients my way, and those clients also referred more individuals. It was a ripple effect in getting referrals. Then, I built a beautiful brand wherein almost all my social media accounts became a lead magnet for people who wanted to work with me. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

“Soon enough, I became an all booked out Online Business Manager for female coaches and entrepreneurs<\/a>. Female badasses who I super love working with!” Lyra mentions. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

What is your business goal?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Lyra Almoite: My goal is to teach my team (and more women) how to work online so they can still manage a household and even quit their corporate jobs. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

My current team is made of incredible women who are working for me part-time. Some of them work in corporations, so they\u2019re working for me after office hours. Some are full-time mothers, and others are full-time students. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cNot only am I helping them become \u2018home-based entrepreneurs,\u2019 but I am also building a team that will soon be capable of being home-based workers or maybe even home-based entrepreneurs themselves!\u201d Lyra says. <\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

I want them to know how to make money and build a career online, and maybe they\u2019ll never ever need a corporate career because remote work is the workforce\u2019s future. And my clients will always serve as an inspiration to them as people who did it already.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
