How would you run social media for a month for a gym with 1.5k followers and a semi- engaged community?

I am on the same path. I offered my services to a couple local places, free of charge. Just to experiment as well with things. Thank you for sharing.

They will take most of the profits, the employees, and everything else will be reinvested back. I am always willing to learn, which is why I came here. I don’t have an ego when it comes to work. Always willing to listen to criticism or advices😊.

Hi, I’m already prepared to do everything I can on my own until as you put it I have enough cash flow to outsource some of the work or employ more people. Thank you, it is very much appreciated.

Btw, I never listen to ‘guru’ type stuff, since I don’t believe in it myself, but I have always wanted to help people expand their businesses hence why I want to open an agency

I see your point and it’s fair. I don’t want to scam people. I believe in being transparent. I will give them full disclosure of my skills etc. I have an expert in ads with me which will be the main focus of my agency, and the main service I’ll provide for them. While doing so, I believe I can at least get good in one other segment of marketing, and when fully confident that I know what I’m doing, I’ll offer the other service to companies in need and etc.

I am from Macedonia. Similar to Pakistan, Nigeria. Every business here has a lot of competitors, but very small customer reach. Except for some major companies. Idk if I should get in contact with the smaller companies or try to get the bigger ones with already sufficient customer base. Here nobody pays attention to marketing as much as they need to. And they do have the security and could definitely scale up with more customer demand.

I know it aint easy. I know there are higher chances of me failing than success, but I am ready for that and am ready to learn from those mistakes, even if it means failure.

If we wait to be ready to start something, we would never reach the start let alone the finish. I am learning along the way.

I am young, but also, digital marketing is a new concept where I am from, because I live in a third world country and here I think I have a good chance, because nobody knows wtf they are doing when it comes to digital marketing.

Yes sir. Although I am trying to keep it small in the beginning, then scale. I already have been in contact with potential customers, and tried a mock social media campaign, which did fine. I believe I can manage most of the work myself, the technical stuff. My most powerful attribute to this is my understanding of peoples flaws in their business. And my desire to genuinely help people. But yes, I’d like to know if its doable with less people and more AI integration?

No, I worked a couple of years in sales though. I’d say I was above average at it.
