If you are needing to upgrade your social media game, or want to be a social media manager, this episode is for you!

In this episode, I chat with Nicole Chua, a Social Media Manager from the Philippines that specializes in Instagram and Facebook Group Management. She helps women entrepreneurs & coaches with content creation & strategy, hashtag research, organic engagement growth + lead generation, and reels idea and editing.

After graduating college, Nicole was working 3 9-5 jobs before having her own Social Media Agency (Nicnac Socials). She had planned to go get her MBA in Taiwan, but due to the pandemic, she started her online business and fell in love with it!

If you want to be a social media manager, Nicole says that before you start doing it independently, gain some experience from working under an agency. As she said, the Master Was Once A Beginner!

We talk about how to find your target audience and about what you need to post on social media, starting with sharing valuable information since that's why people follow you!
