The Business of Social Media Management: 5 Common Misconceptions and Tips Key Takeaways Covered In The Podcast A physical office isn’t required to be in this business. People will take you seriously even though you work from home. You don’t have to do business all by yourself. This includes social media management, content creation, blog writing and more. It isn’t deceiving to outsource work when you’re running a business if the project is completed and the quality is there. Spending money on tools and systems for your business is smart. Don’t make the mistake of letting them pass by. Invest in what will make your life easier. You must focus on your own social media, too. It must be right, and it must be consistent.

The one thing you need to remember above all else… Your time is valuable! Build in efficiencies to help you, spend money wisely to make your life easier, and reach out to others to support you.
