3 First step tips for those looking to hire a Social Media Community Manager
2 Tips for a social media community manager to educate themselves on a client industry to ensure they are sharp with their social community management for that business:
Juan noted that he uses Twitter Search for this type of research. He also creates Twitter lists and Facebook Lists to follow pages and influencers to keep current.
Juan also noted the tool, Swayy, that he uses.
It allows users to add keywords and it then looks for content based on those words. It allows users to share the content from within Swayy and provides analytics on the impact of those social shares (retweets, etc.)
1 Top Tip for how a community manager can be efficient and organized in their community management.
Use a system!
Juan has a daily routine of curating content he may use, and a content calendar he adds items to. When posting content he makes sure he’s accessible (via mobile or desktop) when it goes live so he can respond to comments. He then looks at the measurements of the impact of the posts to guide him going forward, and uses this to guide him as he repeats the process!
Bonus Tip: Juan noted that he nearly always uses a image when tweeting on Twitter due to seeing much higher retweet rates.
All this and more nuggets of gold inside!

JUAN FELIX – FELIX RELATIONSHIP MARKETING
I'm a Indiana Hoosier native where basketball is the top sport. Every team heads to the locker room at halftime to evaluate the first half and create a updated plan for the second half. That plan includes adjustments based on reviewing what worked and what didn't. The "halftime" is a key review point where the game stops, the team pulls away to huddle in the locker room away from the fans, and they come out prepared and ready to succeed in the second half.
That's what this podcast is all about, taking the time to pull away for bit to evaluate, learn, and set some strategies for your business to succeed in the second half. Join me by subscribing and let me be your "business halftime" to help you find great success going forward!
