Social Media Marketing Company or Internal Specialist?
In the following article we'll take a look at key considerations when choosing specialized social media marketing firms.
• The company's "language" is as important as the big picture The option of choosing an internal person is supported by the idea that they already speak the company's "language" and knows the company "inside out", but let's keep in mind that one of the skills essential a social networking specialist needs is being able to see the big picture and offer a fresh perspective.
That's what we do best! Company experts will rapidly learn the company's "language", while keeping in mind your big picture - managing your brand and driving inbound leads.
When it comes to social networking online, staying up-to-date with the latest industry news is a must.
Platforms are always changing; ideas and innovations are constantly coming and going.
Who better to keep tabs on these changes that than a team of trained and experienced professionals? Your employees know your business, we know social media.
• Social Networking can be an operational expense Wouldn't it be nice if you could be able to decide your own budget and choose your own services for social media? A specialized firm can help you with that and your social media will become an operational expense.
This way, you will not have to pay for the constant services of an in-house social media person when you can benefit from the only services you truly need and can afford.

Why settle for one expert when you can have an entire scalable team at your service for less than the salary of one employee? Also, having all of your digital marketing needs managed by the same company means coordinated efforts, and you won't have to deal with multiple agencies and disconnected strategies.
• Your business needs more skills than one person can provide There are times when the in-house person who manages social platforms in a company also handles sales, administrative tasks, or other activities.
Consequently, the social media strategy doesn't get the full attention it deserves and results take more time to appear.
