100+ Tasks a Digital Business Manager Can Do For Your Business (Project, Team & Systems Management)

DBM this, DBM that… but what’s all the hype really about? 

Before we discuss what a Digital Business Manager can do for your business, let’s talk about what a DBM even is!

A Digital Business Manager (aka DBM) is the caretaker of a digital business, and offers services such as team management, project management, and systems management, with a generous side of accountability-buddy-sideline-cheerleader-friend mixed in for their clients.

A Digital Business Manager becomes your right hand in your business – they essentially grow to take your place running behind the scenes so you can focus on the big, needle-moving tasks. 

📋 Who Needs a Digital Business Mananger? 

How do you know if you need a DBM? Here’s a short quiz to see if your business is ‘DBM ready.’

  • ✅ You have a small team of at least two people (not counting yourself!). 
  • ✅ You find yourself getting caught up in answering questions and checking in on projects for hours a day. 
  • ✅ You feel like if you weren’t around for a day, your business would catch on fire and burn down. 
  • ✅ Your business systems are a M.E.S.S., and you’re constantly misplacing important files and forgetting small tasks.
  • ✅ You have a project management tool, but you aren’t sure how to use it efficiently.
  • ✅ You feel like your business is at a standstill because you don’t have enough time to focus on the ‘next step.’ 

If you checked at least two of these boxes, it’s safe to say that you could probably benefit from hiring a Digital Business Manager!

Every business that wants to scale and grow needs some sort of operations person handling the day-to-day projects, teams, and systems.

You can’t do it all alone, and you shouldn’t have to!

Let a trained professional support you every step of the way to your goals.
