What should I include in the project brief for a social media manager?
Include your main goals, target audience, and any specific platforms you want to focus on. Mention the type of content you like, frequency of posts, and any key performance indicators. Providing detailed guidelines helps the manager deliver what you need.
How can I agree on clear deliverables with a social media manager?
Start by listing all tasks you expect them to handle, like post creation or engagement tracking. Discuss timelines and the number of posts or campaigns you want per month. This way, both of you know exactly what's expected.
