What does a freelance social media manager do?

A Freelance social media manager is responsible for managing, growing and reporting on the social presence of your company. This will usually involve executing one or more short term marketing plans with the help of Content Writers and Graphic Designers. Though, in many cases, an elite Freelancer will be skilled in both of those areas and can function independently. Some of their responsibilities include, but are not limited to:

Planning and executing social strategies and campaigns.
Using scheduling tools to prepare social posts in advance.
Responding to comments and messages (often liaising with customer service).
Creating engaging artwork.
Writing content for snippets and articles.
Monitoring and reporting on social media performance.
