Hi Mohamad, I think the best way is to start using the channels yourself, learning from interacting with content on the platforms that feels natural to you. If you like Instagram for example, start creating content and sharing it with the audience there to see what's working and what's not working. Start building a portfolio this way and also by offering your services to friends and family to get started for testimonial and reviews. You can certainly start as an intern with a social media agency to get into the industry as another way. Hope this helps!
@@lauriexwang Thanks for your opinion on this...I'll use it as guide to start in this new career...really appreciate your sharing in your channel...keep up posting a good content ya 😇😇😇
I recommend creating a package for various levels of social media management service, it's a much easier sell in the beginning with a set package of the value you are bringing to the clients and how you will help them (audit, strategy and hands-on implementation of the strategy etc.) I think this is a new video I will create on the channel to share with everyone. Stay tuned!
