Is Social Media a Hassle to Manage?

Is Social Media a Hassle to Manage?

Are you struggling to figure out all there is to know about social media? If you are feeling overwhelmed using social media to enhance your brand image and create awareness, you are not alone. Most business owners don’t know where to start and some do not know the impact it has on their business. Outsourcing could be your answer, but here are some things to keep in mind.

Find someone who knows and keeps up with all the latest trends on the social channels where your audience is “living”.

Have an initial consultation with them and lay out what they will be doing for your business. It could include creating content or simply posting the content you create. Details are important so that everyone is on the same page. 

Ask the contractor for results on a monthly basis. You want to see what activity is happening on your channels. Are followers engaged? Do they like and share the posts? How many new followers are you obtaining each month? 

You could do it all on your own. It’s important to be organized and intentional with your social media schedule. Here is an example I created using AI. The photo attached to this blog article is also AI generated by my own original prompts. 

Here's a suggested social media schedule for your toy manufacturing plant, focusing on company history, employees, machine enhancements, product quality, and customer satisfaction. This plan spans one month and includes a mix of posts, stories, and engagement strategies. I actually created this schedule using AI including the image attached to the blog. It's all about prompting the AI until it learns what you're hoping to achieve.
