Hey! I’m a social media manager. I’ve been working with another roofing client for a few months now, so I have a bit of experience in your field. Feel free to PM me and we can discuss what would be best marketing strategy for your business to get in front of more paying clients.
Cheers!
Really depends on the business idea itself. Online businesses are thriving but brick and mortar are slowing down. Services like contractors are thriving but bakeries and coffee shops are slowing down… there is always ups and downs - but if you keep to a plan and follow through… things should be fine! Maybe dip your toe in and go into your buisness as a side gig (like I am) and work your way towards it.
Cheers!
Very few are going to pay that much just for graphic design. But you can add on services that work along with your graphic design to get to that amount. Things like social media management. Use your designs as ads for businesses, help with creating a business brand, learn how to do basic marketing, and learn website design. These are the additions you will need to start making that per month.
I’ve been a social media manager for over a year now and have only had one client paying close to that as most of my clients are newer businesses or smaller scale. Eventually, I’ll have the analytics behind me so I can approach larger businesses, and $1500 will be low-end.
Hey! I’m a social media manager - feel free to DM me and we can discuss the best way to use that money to bring in new clients. Cheers!
Like the first comment said, you need content with back links and key words and proper SEO to drive traffic to your website. It’s the lomg game to bring in organic traffic to your website - otherwise you are paying for Google and Facebook ads for short term clients. Of you want to DM me, I’m a social media manager so I can help point you in the right direction once I know a bit more about your business and your product/services you are offering.
Cheers!
Hey! I’m a social media manager who specializes with contractors. Feel free to send me a DM and I can take a look at your website and social media pages (if you have any) and give you some advice to get you on your way! Cheers!
Social media, ads, online groups, local groups… lots of options!
Social media manager here. Cafe’s thrive on events. Especially for the millennial crowd. You mentioned crafty type things - find a local vendor to pay you (or do it free) to hold in house maker events In a post I read below it said you could hold up to 10-20 people. This would be a great gathering spot for a local maker to hold events while having a coffee/food. Second things is always music, live music if it’s good drives in people to coke in. Third thing is themes. Christmas is coming - time to start marketing specific Christmas related items on the menu. Bring out the gingerbread, bring out the Santa cookies, bust out the white hot chocolate… etc. That marketing will drive in more people than your standard marketing pitch every day if the year.
Happy to chat and help out if you want!

I’m a social media manager. It takes a lot of time, research, and a creative eye for visual design to maintain a single social media page - let alone multiple! Between building and representing a brand, finding keywords for outreach, activly trying to get your audience to be engaged in your content and bringing in new clients… it’s a lot for a business owner to do and dedicate time to while also maintaining full operations of the business.
If you are looking to bring on someone to actively run your social media pages, I am taking on one or twonmore clients at this time. Feel free to DM me to discuss!
For advice, nothing - free. If you want me to help with the advice and reccomendations it depends on what needs ro be done.
If you want some help/recommendations, I run a Social Media Management business - I would happily give you advice on where you should start.
Running a side social media management business on my own. Pretty much no overhead costs except my website and canva… I’ll do monthly add ons for special projects like SEO and website designs… but yearly my overhead is like… $300? I’m making about $1200/month consistently and have had a few months of $2700+/month. I’m also working full time while doing this - so overall I’m happy with this on such a small scale but hoping to scale up slowly.
Created a nerdy blog website… got it profitable… hit was making like $1 or less an hour. Sold it for $1000.
Then started woodworking… small projects. Paid all my tools off (probably ~1500) .
From there I bought a CNC machine and did cnc woodworking… probably made over 10k profit (paid off machine and more) but still hourly rate was pretty low.
Started social media management business. Been doing this for about a year now - making anywhere between $1000-2200/month. Hourly rate is quite good. Looking to slowly scale it more and take on more clients.
About $1000/month. It’s only a side business but I am slowly starting to scale things up.
How have you been marketing yourself? Do you have a website? Social media? Handing out panflets? Start a cleaning blog to gather emails for email marketing?
