What is a Social Media Manager or Consultant
A Social Media Manager (or Consultant) is essentially the “voice” of the brand. This voice is normally predetermined by the client or business owner in partnership with a brand consultant or online business manager.
Social Media Managers are responsible for:
- keeping a company’s online social media platforms current and growing
- understanding and implementing the company’s brand voice through social media offerings. These include graphic creation, posts, copy writing, social advertising, customer service, and content marketing.
- providing analytics or proof of what’s working in social media

Learning how to become a social media manager can depend upon your starting point. If you love social media and have an aptitude for writing and perhaps some graphic skills, you have the potential to generate real income as a social media manager demanding views from themarketingheaven.com.
