Meet The Interns: Spring 2018

Happy #InternationalWomensDay!! I wanted to share this post today because while I work alone 90% off the time – there also are some awesome women who have been helping me behind-the-scenes! Since I’ve been doing freelancing work full-time since October, I realized early on that I wouldn’t be able to do this all myself….so I put a post on my IG stories that I was looking for interns and snagged these ladies up! My interns have been working with me this semester and have been such…

5 Things I’ve Learned From A Year Of Blogging

It’s my blogiversary y’all! One whole year of blogging. Man. It feels good to have committed to something and have stuck with it for this long! I never really imagined myself being where I am today (self-employed) when I started my blog this time last year. My blog has turned into an avenue for me to not only talk about my life but my journey into self-employment and has even served as a platform for me to provide value to potential social media and consulting clients.…

Freelancing Full-Time: January Recap

I feel like I have been freelancing full-time forever now, but this is only my third month’s recap!! Seriously where does the time go. In January I continued to get a bit more comfortable with my freelancing lifestyle, took my first vacation (!!), and learned I definitely can’t handle on-boarding more than 2 new clients at once. I think my vacation (5 days in Mexico with limited wifi) really solidified the whole “I can do this!” in my mind. I was able to plan ahead, train…

How To Stay Up-To-Date With Social Media Trends

So I’ve been studying & managing social media for 7 years this year! I know it’s a “young” industry but it makes me feel old lol. One of the things I have gotten pretty good at over the years is staying up to date with social media news. There are so many changes to social media algorithms that are so hard to keep track of, and every algorithm change means that social media strategy has to change too. It can be frustrating, but I have a…

Freelancing Full-Time: December Recap

December was a crazy month. With the holidays and a bunch of new clients from November to handle content for, I was pretty slammed with my freelance work. I also was interviewing and hiring my first batch of interns (!!), and they didn’t start until the end of the month – so basically I worked a lot in December on client work and NOT a lot on MY freelance business. I will say that I have gotten a lot of clarity about my business after the…
