A post can take minutes to publish and hours of thinking to get right. đ
If you think social media management is just posting, youâre only seeing the last 10% of the work. The post is what you see, but the work starts much earlier.
Before content goes live, thereâs the business and audience research, strategy, planning, content mapping, creative direction, copywriting, brand voice, scheduling and more.
Then thereâs what happens after publishing: comments, DMs, performance, adjustments, client feedback and the occasional âCan we tweak this?â đ
To the client, âItâs just 15 posts a month, so how hard can it be?â
But realistically, itâs brainstorming, strategy, research, planning, content mapping and creation, copywriting, community engagement, optimisation, tweaks, changes, adjustments and repeat.
And the number of posts isnât really the point. Different businesses have different content needs and packages. What matters is that the content has a reason for being there.
After 7+ years in the digital and creative space, weâve learned that professional social media management is about much more than keeping a feed active. Itâs about making thoughtful decisions around how a business shows up online.
Your audience sees the finished post. They donât see everything that went into it. And honestly, thatâs how it should be.
So if youâre looking for someone to simply put posts on your page, thatâs one thing. If you want your social media managed as part of your business, thatâs a different conversation.
Thatâs the work we can help you do at Virtualaays.
