2022 was a massive year for remote work. If you are looking for a remote job in 2023, there are a number of ways to go about it. We have searched the remote job marketplace far and wide and shortlisted these 5 remote roles you can start with little to no prior experience:
Social Media Manager
Your responsibilities as a social media manager will be based on the size of your business and your prior experience. For instance, social media managers at larger organizations frequently approve copy or videos rather than produce them. In smaller businesses they frequently produce more content.
You will also be assigned the responsibility to boost the engagement of the organization on multiple social media platforms. You will set up a content strategy and launch marketing campaigns to bring in leads for the business. With these marketing campaigns, social media managers also analyze performance data to gauge the effectiveness of campaigns. You will require writing skills, social media copywriting skills, design understanding, communication, and interpersonal skills.
Content Writer/Copywriter
If managing multiple social media accounts and marketing campaigns seems a bit overwhelming, you can double down on your writing skills and aim for a content writing/copywriting role. While many larger companies separate these roles, smaller to mid-sized companies generally merge the two roles into one.
As a content writer, you will be assigned to craft blogs that are SEO-optimized, informative and insightful content in general. And as a copywriter, you will be driving engagement and conversion to the organization’s website and social media platforms.
You, as a remote copywriter, will require professional proficiency in English or other languages in which the organization communicates. In addition to strong communication skills, you will also need to know SEO (Search Engine Optimization).
Virtual Assistant
As more startups and small businesses are shifting towards a remote-first culture and companies of all sizes are using digital office tools, virtual assistants have grown in popularity.
Usually, a virtual assistant will pay for and supply their own computer hardware, software, and high-speed Internet connectivity. Most companies will provide technological support in various ways.
The tasks that a virtual assistant performs depend on the demands of the customer and the details of the contract. Some virtual assistants work on administrative and financial responsibilities, while others update social media accounts or create blog posts. You may also be tasked with data entry, vacation planning, arranging appointments, and online file storage.
Sales Development Representative
It is said that sales are the heart of any business. Sales Development Representatives are inside sales professionals who prospect and generate qualified leads that go into the sales funnel.
As a Sales Development Representative (SDR) you will be dedicating a portion of your time to researching prospective clients, qualifying them, and forwarding them down the sales funnel. You will be developing the company’s sales pipeline and maintaining databases of prospects.
Besides having exceptional communication and interpersonal skills, you should equip yourself with sales tools such as Salesforce and Zoominfo. Businesses are adopting these tools to expedite the prospect process and maintain an organized database.
Customer Service Representative
As a customer service representative or CSR, you will serve as a point of contact for customers. You will offer details about products and services, respond to inquiries, and address any issues that arise with customer accounts.
The most effective CSRs are truly happy to assist clients. You communicate with passion, patience, and empathy. You enjoy conversing and appreciating the benefits of effective communication. When necessary, customer service employees can put themselves in their clients’ place and speak out for them. You as the CSR will collect valuable customer feedback for you. Customer service representatives are also inherently good at addressing problems. When you don’t have enough information to address a customer’s inquiry or handle a complaint, you are required to be confident in your ability to troubleshoot and investigate.
