Choosing a Social Media Consultant who is the right fit for your small business is key - it’s your business baby and you need to have confidence they’ll be right for you.
Here’s why I might not be right for you….
You’re wanting someone to manage your social media channels day to day
Since I started out in the Social Media world back in 2015, I have been lucky enough to manage a variety of clients channels from ecommerce to podcasts, social enterprises to bloggers.
I’ve earnt my stripes so I can now work at a more strategic level giving you the tools and time-saving hacks to make you feel confident and empowered to run a fabulous channel yourself be it Instagram, Facebook or Pinterest!
I believe this year above all years, social media is becoming more authentic and real - and therefore requires you yourselves to run your channels to show the personality and story behind your brand.
You’re after a Twitter/LinkedIn specialist
My specialisms are Instagram, Instagram Stories, Facebook, Pinterest and Facebook Advertising but I have close contacts who niche in other channels - so just get in touch and I’ll hook you up!
You’re expecting results by tomorrow!
Social media marketing, in particular, Facebook ads, is all about Test, Learn, Refine and Test again.
I can’t guarantee you the changes you make will impact your business straight away … but I promise I’ll treat your budget like my own and will be completely up front if I believe it is better to put a hold on your ads, switch it up and try something different.
You’re hoping to spend £100 a month on Facebook ads
As a Facebook Advertising Strategist, I can give you guidance on how much a business like yours should be investing to get real results. In order to be able to properly test your audiences I usually advise £300/month minimum (there’s no two ways about it - you need to spend money to make money in this game!)
Dependent on the type of business you’re running, a proper sales funnel is £1000 minimum.
We can run through all of this over a virtual (or real life!) coffee!
You want someone who will meet you once/do the job and bugger off!
I can do that if you really want me to … but when I work with a client it’s because I believe in them and what they’re trying to achieve …. and so you tend to find you’re stuck with me! I’ll become your cheerleader - I’ll post an Instagram story on you, I’ll write about you on my blog - because you’ve supported me in my business as much as I’ll be supporting you in yours!
You want a FREE - lancer
I have a mortgage. I have 2 kids. Not to mention my obsession with buying unique, handmade British products from small businesses (!) so please don’t ask me to reduce my rates…. or work for FREE !
What I promise you WILL get when you hire me is:
A degree from a top University
A CIM Diploma in Marketing so I know how social fits into your wider marketing mix
6 years of working as a marketing professional
3 months of Facebook Advertising Strategist training
6 months of Social Media Management training
Countless online courses & workshops to level up in Pinterest and Instagram Stories
AND ….All the time I take each week to read online blogs and keep up to date with the latest in social media news so you don't have to.
Someone who will care as much about your business baby as you will
…. and why we WOULD be a match made in heaven ….
