Know your Facebook from your Twitter? Your Instagram from your Google+? Of course you do, you weren’t born in the 19th century. You know social media inside out. You know how to Tweet, you can put up a Facebook status about Britain’s Got Talent in seconds, and you definitely know which Instagram filter is the best for any occasion. X-Pro II, anyone?

However, pursuing a career as a social media manager is slightly different. Social media managers make sure the company they work for maintain a strong presence on all social media channels. A social media strategy needs to be developed and put into action so that the company reaches its targets and objectives. Social media managers will also have to build audience, reply to any feedback left in social media comments and work out how to deal with frequently occurring complaints. They will also use social media stats to report on how successful and unsuccessful past social media campaigns have been. On top of this, they will use tools such as Hootsuite and TweetDeck to schedule social media posts, so that the global audience in different time zones and the night owls among us remain satisfied. All in all, being a social media manager isn’t just about sitting on Twitter and Facebook all day, posting whenever you like. There’s a whole strategy put in place as part of the marketing outreach to boost sales and audience appeal. The key to doing it well is to make sure posts don’t look like a deliberate sales drive, the message needs to be more subtle and social… it is social media, after all.
