According to Tina Forsyth, my mentor and instructor, the author of Becoming an Online Business Manager, the official definition of an Online Business Manager (OBM) is:
A virtually based support professional who manages online based businesses, including the day-to-day management of projects, operations, team members, and metrics.
For the past 11 years my team and I have been meticulously rescuing my clients, entrepreneurs, from their daily nitty gritty activities that are needed to run their business, thus freeing up time for them to work on their business.
