    Loved the video and the practical advice, Mill! It's so important to have the right tools when you're starting out. I've been experimenting with boost app social for my social media tasks. It's pretty neat, especially for creating unique reels and stories. Might be a good addition to your toolkit.

    I feel called to create content for small local businesses within my community, I have no experience besides helping my schools social media with posting pictures & making flyers in canva for events or announcements. I’m so glad I came across this video !! For me, I don’t feel comfortable with the idea of making my socials public. I’d like to be behind the scenes mostly & my socials to be just for fun, friends/family only. I hardly post anyways & I like my privacy … it’s conflicting bc seems like everyone has to have a social media presence & followers/likes to thrive virtually ?? If that makes sense..

    Go beyond the "likes" and build your portfolio with real-world experience. While learning the tools and platforms is important, employers value hands-on experience. Offer your services to local businesses, volunteer organizations, or even friends to manage their social media. This allows you to showcase your skills and build a portfolio that proves your value.

    This is really helpful! You mentioned in another video that most companies should provide the content for you, otherwise you can schedule a 1:1 to determine what kind of content they’d like to create so that we can begin building out their content library. When you volunteered -- did you have to create their content and what platform did you use? Canva?

    The more you practice, the better you will get. I used to have a billion discovery calls in one week, but didn't close one. Every "no" will get you closer to the yes. For myself, I like to be honest and transparent, yet confident in what I'm doing for someone. How I sold myself in the beginning is that I will go the extra mile, I'm hungry, so you can trust I will give it my all and learn along the way. There are benefits to having a newer social media manager like lower rates, they will have more time to spend on your account, etc. You get more confident as you go!

    Nope! I believe I responded to your other comment. Get familiar with tools like Capcut, Instagram Reels templates, and in-shot for basic to pro video editing. There are SO many tools out there that make your life easier.
