Many people mistakenly think that just because they're good at social media that they will be good at social media marketing. It's an entirely different beast.

Do you have any experience in branding or marketing basics? You need to be able to create strategic briefs, messaging guides, create and effectively track goals that will solve your client's pain points.

After that I would learn more about content marketing. How to create good, compelling stories that not only engages the brand's followers but stores that legitimately helps them as well.

Blogs to subscribe to:

Content Marketing Institute

Hubspot

*CMI also had a podcast called PNR that is a great way to keep up on latest news, trends and predictions. I recommend subscribing to it.

Speaking of blogs, consider including them as part of your content strategy. They make easy fodder for social posts and drive traffic to the client website.

A few final things to note:

  • Having someone with graphic design experience will step up your game big time, plus it can help avoid potential legal issues down the line (more on this later)

  • Same goes for short form video. It's the most engaging content and damn near everyone is doing it.

  • I would not accept any work that did not also include an advertising budget. This will allow to grow followers quickly and ensure they see your content. Only 6% of followers organically see a brand's content. Your missing out on a lot of potential without boosting those posts to ensure more people see them.

  • Make sure you don't use any copyrighted images or videos. Most people are under the mistaken assumption that photos on the internet are fair game. This can get you and your client in a lot of trouble.

  • Write a strategy doc and content calendar and stick to them. The biggest mistake new people make is playing it by ear. If after a few months you find the strategy isn't working, change it up to keep what does and can what doesn't.

    That's about all I got for now. Lemme know if you have any questions.
