There are Social Media Managers and Social Media Strategists. They are not the same. And they are not entry-level roles. If you or your business are looking for someone to just take your ideas and blindly post them to a Facebook or Instagram account for you- you need a Virtual Assistant. Just like you need to have goals for your business in order to track and measure success- you need to have goals for hiring and outsourcing. If you hire someone with Virtual Assistant experience and expect them to operate like a Social Media Strategist, you're both going to be disappointed. K, thanks. ✌ #JustHaveSomeBasicGoals #ForEverything

Hear 👂 hear l What I like to explain to my clients before they hire me: my role as a marketing strategist is to come up with a plan and give the plan to the social media manager (and other managers that execute) to source content accordingly. Unfortunately some companies think they’re being smart and they’re saving money by hiring a SMM expecting them to do my job, but they do the opposite: waste money, exhaust resources and then blaim those same resources for their own failures. 🥹 Please don’t go cheap when it comes to marketing: a strategy and plan always comes before the execution and it’s paramount that you allogate your budget for that 🙌

Social media manager ≠ designer, copywriter, and strategist rolled into one! 🔹 ”Bas copy hi toh likhna hai" – ChatGPT se likh lenge? Content creation is more than just generating words; it’s about *connecting* with the audience. 🔹 AI-generated designs? 🤖 What AI does and what designers bring to the table are worlds apart. 🔹In my experience, many expect a social media manager to wear all hats – strategy, content, design. But these are distinct roles, each with its own value. #KnowTheDifference #SocialMediaManager #NotADesigner #CreativityMatters
