4 Signs You Need to Hire a Social Media Manager
October 21, 2020
You may have thought about the idea of hiring a social media manager, but you just don’t know if you’re ready to commit. Investing in your business takes time and thoughtful consideration, but it is worth it! Here are four signs that it *really* is time for you to hire a social media manager.
You Don’t Have Enough Time in the day to get Your Work Done
As a business owner, there are certain things that only YOU can do – that’s what makes your business so successful. If you’re spending your time doing things that aren’t productive and moving your business forward, it’s much better for your bottom line to outsource. Time is money! Let’s say your time is worth $150 an hour. If you’re spending ten hours a week trying to grow and manage your social media (when you could be bringing in new business or clients) it’s better to outsource the task at a lower rate!
You Ask Yourself “What Should I Post” Daily?
There’s nothing worse than staring blankly at your phone asking yourself “what do I post”?! Not only is this frustrating (and time consuming), but it also means that you have no strategy around what you post on your social media. In order to be successful, you need to plan out content across all platforms in advance, while considering your business objectives and goals.
You Can’t Keep up with New Technology
TikTok, Instagram, Twitter, Snapchat, Facebook, YouTube, Pinterest, What’s App…it seems like the list of social media platforms is growing every day. Not only do you need to learn how to operate and manage each of these platforms, but also which are best for your business. Oh, and then, you need to create content for each platform that is best suited for that channel and audience. Sound exhausting? Don’t worry – 4M Marketing can help!
You Aren’t Seeing Growth or Results From Your Efforts
You’re posting and scrolling, but you’re just not seeing an increase of followers or engagement on any of your channels. Due to consistent changes in platform algorithms and an a decrease in consumer attention spans, getting your message in front of the correct audience is trickier than ever before. And it’s not just about your followers – you need to see real results from your efforts in website traffic and sales!
