Is social media a full time job?

Social media may be free, but it isn't easy. There are no short cuts. Just like with anything else, you get out of it what you put into it. If you're going to take social media seriously, you need a new, full-time position.

Many financial institutions delving into social media simply shovel the additional workload on top of the existing marketing staff’s responsibilities. Reality Check: Even if your marketing department has the experience to pull it off, they are probably already stretched thin and don’t have the time. It’s very easy to underestimate the amount of time and energy it takes to create any kind of success in the social media space. Just to run a blog, it take a bare minimum of five hours a week, and more realistically 10-20 hours. Add another five or so hours a week for Twitter. If you run promotions, or integrate video into your social media initiatives, the hours really start to balloon. Here’s something to keep in mind. A couple of days ago, the Washington Post reported about the Susan G. Komen Foundation’s approach to social media. After two years of intensive efforts to boost its Facebook profile through social networking and hiring two full-time people, the breast cancer cause had acquired only 135 fans.

Reality Checks:

You can’t just hope to put a few hours a week into your social media projects and expect any kind of success. Social media may be free, but it isn’t easy. There are no short cuts. Just like with anything else, you get out of it what you put into it. If you’re going to take social media seriously, you need a new, full-time position. Smart financial institutions are hiring this person months prior to launching their social media projects in order to have them (and their expertise) on board during the development phase. This person could be called an “Online Community Manager,” “Director of Online Marketing” or a “Social Media Manager.” Whatever titles are used, expect to see more financial institutions hiring these kinds of people in coming years. There is perhaps no better illustration of this than a recent Fifth Third Bank ad for a new Social Media Strategist position. The Cincinnati bank is looking for someone to “unleash the marketing potential locked within everyday conversations about our brand.”
