Behind the Scenes: A Day in the Life of a Virtual Assistant & Web Strategist

Ever wondered what it’s like to be a Virtual Assistant and Web Strategist working remotely in Kenya? At Rahisi Solutions, I wear many hats, from managing client emails to tweaking website layouts and optimizing Shopify stores.

In this blog, I’ll take you behind the scenes of a typical workday the tools I use, the tasks I handle, and how I stay organized while supporting multiple clients online.

8:00 AM – Morning Setup & Planning

The day starts with a quick check-in on Trello, my go-to tool for project management. I review client tasks, respond to urgent emails, and prioritize what needs attention.

Coffee in hand, I set my intention for the day.

9:00 AM – Virtual Assistant Tasks

Client inboxes are where I dive in first:

  • Responding to customer support emails
  • Scheduling meetings via Calendly
  • Managing social media content calendars
  • Creating reports and summaries for business owners

These routine tasks are essential for keeping clients organized and focused on their core work.

11:00 AM – Web Strategy & Website Maintenance

This is where the creative side kicks in. I usually spend this block working on:

  • WordPress theme customization
  • Shopify app configurations
  • Page layout/blog updates
  • Testing mobile responsiveness and load speed

Whether it’s an opt-in page or a checkout issue, I’m here to make sure your site is smooth and conversion-ready.

2:00 PM – Strategy Calls & Client Check-ins

In the afternoon, I often jump on Zoom to:

  • Review client goals
  • Propose design or content updates
  • Walk through analytics or heatmap data

As a Web Strategist, I help clients understand what’s working, and what’s not on their websites.

4:00 PM – Admin Wrap-Up & Learning Time

Before closing out the day:

  • I follow up on pending client tasks
  • Send off reports and updates
  • Check in on ongoing website projects

I also set aside 30 minutes to learn something new, whether it’s a Shopify app update or SEO changes. Staying sharp is part of the job!

Final Thoughts

Being a freelance Virtual Assistant and Web Strategist is all about flexibility, structure, and service. I love helping entrepreneurs and small business owners succeed online, from Nairobi to New York etc.

If you need support with WordPress, Shopify, or daily admin tasks, I’d love to hear from you.
