She's A Keeper - Social Media Marketing

3 weeks ago

I couldn’t have said it better myself !! 👏🙌

#SocialMediaMarketing #GoWithTheProWe’d love to address the elephant in the room when it comes to how much businesses should pay for social media management / how much social media managers should charge.

As a business owner / freelancer you have no doubt the following goals (and probably more)

- to pay the bills
- to make a profit
- to grow year on year
- to hit your personal income goals
- to feel successful whatever that means to you personally.

So it's really frustrating when business owners don’t see the value in the very skill that is going to help them to reach those goals.

To grow your business and reach paying customers in 2020 and beyond you need social media. Both organic and paid.

Social media marketing is not an admin job. It is not simply posting some photos on Instagram or popping up a post on Facebook.

True social media marketing is strategic. There is a plan in place to connect with your audience, turn them into fans and get them to buy as quickly as possible and then remain as paying customers for as long as possible.

This is what social media managers do.

They know how to talk to your audience.

They know how to turn them into customers.

They know how to retain them and keep them buying from you for as long as possible.

They understand sales funnels, customer service, crisis management and far more.

So if you are being quoted £400 a month quite frankly you are getting a bargain.

And if you are charging less than this you are undervaluing your skills.

I’ve said this before but I’m saying it again as it’s so important. Social media management is NOT AN ADMIN JOB.

If you want to pay £50 a month for social media management go ahead. But you won’t get the results you want. You’ll be getting some posts on social sure but they won’t make an impact on your business in the way you want.

As a business owner/freelancer you have no doubt the following goals (and probably more)ad, many social media marketers do power hours for £99-250. That is a way better way to get value and results from your small budget. And you’ll be able to increase sales and income so you can afford to outsource in the future.

Please start to value these people as they really can help make the difference between your business ticking along as it is now and being a true success making a shed load of money.

Anyone agree? ...
