Social Media Manager is not an entry-level position. ❌️ Social Media Manager is not lesser than other positions. ✅️ Everyone starts somewhere. Every single person will be an entry level person when they do a job for the first time. That's not where the problem lies, and such statements only reinforce the notion that there are lesser jobs, and that those deserve lesser treatment and respect. The problem lies in considering any work "low skilled" work. It lies in using this deliberate "misconception" as a free pass at being an elitist, abusive sleaze who wants seasoned professionals for cheap, slapping that tag on your roles to achieve it. Yes, people should stop treating us terribly. Yes, the skills and talents that go into this work should be recognized. Yes, management should stop acting like this is something a 5-year-old with some crayons does for fun on their spare time. But that doesn't equal an entry level job. That equals a kid playing with crayons. It's an attempt to put those who stand at your front lines down, so they feel worthy of taking abuse for your success and peace of mind. It's yet another method of trying to reduce costs by belittling workers you don't want demanding good pay and fair treatment for a very high stress, high exposure, high risk tech job. Let's stop acting like being a rookie who is just starting out is some rite of passage shit, where you should take bad pay, and bad treatment because you're "entry level." Entry level is still a job. You devote time, effort, developed talents to do it. You deserve the appropriate pay and respect. So does someone who has been working for 20 years. Social Media Manager is absolutely an entry level j-o-b. And it's high time we stop treating those as a charitable gift by bosses to workers.

This perspective is correct. However, specific responsibilities of Social Media Managers can vary greatly depending on their role within an organization; • Roles and duties are mostly influenced by the bandwidth, composition, and capabilities of the surrounding departments. • In many instances, Social Media Managers (myself included), find ourselves taking on tasks such as graphic design and video editing due to the absence of provided professionals in these areas. — a topic worthy of its own discussion but maybe for a different time. To add on that statement, some may argue it’s important to decline tasks that fall outside our “primary responsibilities”. Yet, there’s a part of me that embraces these challenges that drove me into discovering skills that enabled my growth beyond being a Social Media Manager. (Transitioning in learning pitching, designing pitch decks, crafting key messaging, voice, and a lot more. - again a topic worthy of its own discussion.) I believe an entry-level position DOES NOT necessarily equate to entry-level outcomes. I’ve witnessed firsthand how individuals in these said roles achieve beyond distinction results! Social Media Managing is an art itself and that’s 1 repost for today. See you again!

Social Media Manager is not an entry-level position. It's not something you can just put an intern in charge of. It doesn't fall under "other duties as assigned." So, why in 2024 are people still listing social media manager as an entry-level position? If you treat social media management as an entry-level role, you can also expect entry-level results. #SocialMediaManager #SocialMediaMarketing

Oh, I just had to reshare this one. We're not filling intern or entry-level positions. We're a diverse, ever-evolving group of professionals from various backgrounds and degrees. We wear many hats, bridge gaps between disciplines, and bring a love of good storytelling to the digital sphere along with us. We optimize, research, plan, and pivot with the newest trends, features and algorithm changes the social media gods decide to throw at us next. We come from different educational backgrounds and adapt to new processes and ways of thinking: If we're not analytical, we learn to be. If we're not creative, we learn to be. If we're not writers, we learn to be. And when we're not posting for your brand, we're planning, reporting, creating or collaborating on assets that tells your brand story. Not every client or company sees the heavy lifting or gets to peak behind the curtain, but when you get the right professionals behind your brand, you'll see the results. I'm very fortunate to have a great group of clients who trust our social media program, and coworkers who I continue to learn from, consult and partner with. Thanks for coming to my TED Talk

A Social Media Manager is your front-line defense, digital spokesperson, customer service manager, brand ambassador and crisis communicator rolled into one. In an ideal world with bottomless coffers, they have a team assisting in overseeing different social media channels, each with distinct audiences and tailoring an organization's messages to meet that audience's needs and channel algorithms. 😲 They ensure your brand's voice is consistent and engaging across all platforms, address customer inquiries and issues promptly and build a positive online presence that fosters community and trust among your audiences. (And if you're lucky, you'll find someone who will report on trends and performance and make recommendations, but that data and numbers crunching is a digital rant best saved for another day. 😂 ) This is NOT an entry-level role, and those who fill these roles need to be compensated fairly for the ever-expanding presence they play in shaping and maintaining an organization's reputation and overall performance. 📢 What are yalls thoughts and experience on this?
