Today, more and more companies are using social media to promote their goods and services. And although excessive use of social media can lead to addiction, any serious business should never overlook the potential these platforms offer. Statistics show that 71% of small and mid-sized companies use social media to market themselves, while 55% of online users indicate they use social media to look for information about a particular business. And since these platforms are available worldwide and to a diverse range of demographics, they give your company a global reach to potential customers, as well as elevate your brand reputation. Unfortunately, simply having social media presence is not enough. You need to have an actionable plan if you are to see any results. But the sheer amount of time and resources required to effectively manage a social media marketing strategy is immense. Not forgetting you need to have the knowledge to navigate the ever-evolving social media terrain. And that’s where a social media management team comes into play.
As the name suggests, these professionals are tasked with representing a company across all its social channels. They work with the marketing department to craft social media campaigns, respond to comments, and create content. The huge demand for SMM services, however, has led to a stinging shortage of social media managers, making it almost impossible for companies to fill these positions. But with the help of a social media manager recruitment agency, the skills gap is slowly being bridged. If you came here seeking answers on how to find a social media manager, you have come to the right place.
In this article, we are going to look at how you can hire social media marketer, as well as the benefits of using social media manager remote teams.
Benefits of a Remote Social Media Management Team
As a business owner or manager, there are several benefits of using outsourced social media management services. They include:
Reduced costs
Hiring a remote SMM manager instead of a full-time employee or team can lead to significant savings for your business. Along with reducing the amount of time needed to train new recruits, you also get to cut costs associated with having a full-time in-house team. And if you happen to be working with an agency, all their SMM are experienced, meaning they hit the ground running upon hire.
Flexibility
Unlike the regular 9-to-5 in-house workers, social media marketers on demand offer better flexibility in terms of working hours. This is particularly important for multinational or global companies operating across different time zones, meaning customers can reach out at any time. But that is not the best part. You can scale the workforce upwards or downwards depending on your social media needs, meaning you only pay for what you get.
Access to global talent
Whilst having an in-house affiliate marketing team gives you greater control over your social media strategy, remote teams open doors to a global spectrum of different professionals and personalities. Better yet, you’ll have a much easier time looking for a remote social media manager as they’ll have been vetted in advance by the respective agency. And since everything is largely done over the internet, you get to save all the time and resources that would have been wasted traveling.
Easier to manage
Outsource social media management and you’ll have a relatively easier time, as the workers are managed and supervised by the agency. As long as there is clear, concise communication followed by highly efficient workflows, you shouldn’t have any major problems.
