Hi Ellen. Thank you for posting this video and going over the most common topics for a beginner. I’m just getting started with my first client so this is extremely helpful.
Thanks so much! I'm glad this was helpful :)
Love you. Thanks for the information.
this was actually so informative thank you!
this video is sooo helpful!! ty
Thanks for sharing all of what you do. This is really helpful!
@Ellen: This is the second social media management video that I have watched (here on UA-cam) that not only baked the cake, but put the cherry on top. Well done! This video was very detailed and helpful.
Those are two very important things for videos to have. Especially videos that are trying to teach you something.
Also, I like your accent, cheerful and positive personality. The US salary was a bonus.👍🏻
Thank you for making and sharing this video. If you haven't done so already, please make a Part 2 of this video.
I have a few questions.
1) What kind of social media job would you suggest for someone who only wants to do the following for a client: Post pics, videos, respond to comments, monitor likes? (Excluding any of the business, analytic, SEO, etc related)
2A) How much would they get paid (US) per hour for carrying out those tasks ?
2B) What would the US salary be per hour to manage someone's UA-cam account?
3) Out of the following, which one has a high demand for social media managers (UA-cam, Instagram, Tik Tok, Twitter or Facebook) ?
Thank You!
Thank you so much for all this information!
Hi Ellen! Great videos I've watched a few and I appreciate your honesty in this business. When it comes to social media platforms, which platform(s) do you use to manage your social media accounts for your clients? There are so many and I'm not sure which one to consider. Thanks!
Thank you for this. I need a career change and slowly but surely looking into my options
Yay goodluck!
thank you so much!!
Hi Ellen, Thank you for sharing.

Simply genius.
Thank you!
thank you, thank you, thank you! This has helped me a lot. You really tell the truth! I will definitely be taking your course. I took 3 courses and it didn't really seem to help me much.
Exactly! They don’t really let tell how to go about it!!!
THANK YOU FOR SHARING
You are so welcome!
Thank you. This is great video and it REALLY does answer question of how to start as a social media manager. I was wondering if you have a video or course where I can deep dive on this. I especially struggle with posting stories on behalf of my client, as they don't want to show up there. Thanks

Hi Ellen, thanks for this really helpful video!! I have one client right now and would to reach out to brands to get a few more. One thing I would like to know is if I should put my package prices in the first pitch I will send them? Or is it best to wait and talk about prices once they replied and showed interest? Thank you!
Thanks so much! I usually include the prices in my first pitch!
Love this video! Side note: You look a lot like Love from You!
Things to do research on: hashtag strategy , how to write a caption, engagement, stories/reels
Great informational video. Thank you. I am more confident with Facebook. I am just a beginner at Social Media. I have a customer that just hired me for social media management. Do you have any suggestions as to what to do first?
Tons of great info to add to all of my notes to get this business up and running. Just curious if you have any sort of startup guide, kit, forms, etc. that I can use as a guide while first getting clients to keep me on track of all the information I need to be getting.
Hey Melissa! I have a social media starter kit mini guide you can download here: www.ellenmackenzie.com/social-media-starter-kit
Thanks so much for your support on this video! I have filmed a part two here if you'd like to check it out: ua-cam.com/video/AifOwUjajJE/v-deo.html

Hi I love your videos! I just want to ask if you would usually charge by hour or a project? I was asked what's my hourly rate and don't know what is the best way to answer this question
In a prior video ..she advised that having packages would be best and what's included in each package over a set period of time. Weekly, monthly, three months etc
How do you schedule posting and where do you go for researching hashtags? Great video btw love it ill follow you now
Schedule through Creator Studuo on Facebook. Use hashtag generator or the instagram app for research. However hashtags are not as important these days
Hi Hellen thanks for the tips .I would like to become a SMM also .where do I start to study I meant which is the genuine website course to study online ?
Hi Jessica, my course the Dishing Up Digital School opens for enrollment in a few days. It has everything you need to know about becoming a social media manager. Follow me on Instagram for updates xx
When you get the clients what are the questions you would ask them that you need for the management
Niiiiiiice
Yay! Best thing to wake up to
Also, how do you research hashtags Ellen?
Nice video!!!! Please name a few brands you work with. I would like to take a look.
Check out my instagram and my clients highlights. I often share clients on my stories
is there any thing that needs to be done as like a prerequisite for doing this? like i know sometimes starting a business requires a certification or a license, and you have to register your business and it’s like a whole process. what does that look like for this particular business model?
I've answered this in my latest Q&A video, hope it helps!
I don't understand how do you manage different social media accounts Instagram accounts do you use a specific tool do u log into their accounts how
where is your top from? it's so pretty
Thanks so much! It's just from a Thrift Store sorry, no label 🥰
Does it require any degree for example marketing degree?
In the Philippines, we only charge 4-5 usd per hour🙈
Going to start instagram marketing
What size business would you approach when first starting?
Small to medium sized businesses. My first few clients had anywhere between 200 followers to 5000 😀
Whats a custom content?
Im debating sooooooo much between doing a course of SMM or ppc manager and I just cant decide :(
I'm biased but I'd recommend SMM haha!! DM me on insta if you'd like to chat about my course ⚡️🥰
What is a PPC manager?
Do I have to be a good editor and shoot photos for clients?
No you can chose not to take photos!
Hi guys i am 13 and I really want to be a social media manger but i don't know where i can find a clint dose anybody know where i can find one ??😊
Join some Facebook groups and start networking! I have a few podcast episodes talking about booking your first few clients 😊
Love it
Thank you so much! Go out there and get it girl ♥️
But how to catch a client
I'm a beginner please don't be offended if I want to do the job do i meet people that have online trades then promote it on my page or what?
I'd recommend checking out some of my other videos like this one where I talk about what I do more in depth :) ua-cam.com/video/PDwiaXoqQ4A/v-deo.html
Great Video!!! Out of curiosity, can a person from a different country be a social media manager of a company that is in a different country?
Yes absolutely! One of the best things about this job is being able to work anywhere in the world 😘
Hey! Is there anyone interested in learning smm and wanna learn together?
WAY too many ads!!!!! You can't be a successful #socialmedia manager since you have to monetize your #youtube videos.
Sorry about my 3 ads Lu but I give out plenty of free content across my social channels and I like to think my viewers are happy to watch an ad in return. However, you are more than welcome to leave if it annoys you, I'm not forcing you to watch. Perhaps you should spend your time elsewhere rather than leaving comments like this. And if you wanted to check up on my finances, you'll find my youtube ad revenue only makes up 2% of my yearly income ;)
How do you aproch the costumers? Do you walk in to stores and ask? Or you message on Instagram. Would you use your private Instagram for writing them or make a company one? Thank you so much for making this video. I would love a part 2
