Social Media Manager and Creative Director
I painted a couple of realistic mustang horses on my high school gymnasium and the next thing I know I have a BFA in illustration at CSU Long Beach. I have been using that skill ever since along with the big list of skills I have learned throughout the years.
I like being a social media manager because social media is the most cost-effective form of brand marketing that you can use to be a successful company today and it makes me feel good when I can save a company from being stagnant or lose its market share. And a word of wisdom, when times get tough it's time to go with what works… Social Media.
In a nutshell, when you add the power of targeted Facebook advertising that is not the traditional straight forward in your face advertising, that will keep your targeted friends following your service or product. So to add value to your ad by offering a discount or a chance to win something great, you can create an email database through a lead funnel that also sends them to your website to buy or sign up for your service.
With a great ad that goes viral, your company could get 100 to 1000 times more leads than you had before. Take Old Spice for example as the most viral social ad campaign ever created with combined Facebook and YouTube views from 2010 to now of 125 million and it produced a whopping 125% increase in sales just the first year and has kept growing.
Even if you don’t have a viral Facebook ad and the new funnels, some companies have 100% growth in their first year with an average of 40% ROI.
Work Terms
I can work fast as long as I don't have a pending deadline, working weekends is ok but holidays are for me most of the time. $20 per hour is my lowest rate for most things but I can work on a flat fee. Just as guru.com says I get payment up front before starting the job.
