Giveaway Day 10: Reflect & Celebrate with Us!

One of my favorite Arb moments from this year was attending “The Power of Numbers: Unraveling Data for Social Media Success” event with Jazmin Griffith. I really loved hearing from her and getting her insights on social media data and especially social listening! It was extremely insightful! I walked away with a lot of great new ideas and tools that our team could use to better understand our social media data. After the event I immediately followed her on social because I wanted to continue to learn from her. All of the other events this year have been amazing as well but this one was definitely a favorite of mine 😊

It’s such a game changer to have a team and leadership that recognizes the hard work that goes into social media! Great work :)

This sounds like a great event, and I’m sad I missed it!

My career win this year was starting a job as a Social Media Manager! Up until now, I’ve had more general marketing titles, which made my job a lot more spread out. It’s been so nice to dig in to social media exclusively, and my skills have seriously improved in such a short amount of time. I feel like I have room to breathe!

This is a minor win, but one of my favorite career moments of the year was my vice president shouting out my social media strategy in an all-staff marketing and communications team meeting. After working in so many toxic offices, it was just a huge win to be recognized for the work I’ve been doing. Some senior leadership has trouble understanding the impact social media has on the brand, so it was a great feeling. 

One career moment that has impacted our team has been getting all of our listening dashboards in Sprout set up for not only our locations but our competitors as well. It’s been a big step in helping us listen for brand crises or high-volume brand mentions.

One of my favorite career moments this year: earning a USA gold medal! 

Backstory: I am the social media manager for Choose Lansing and the Lansing Sports Commission. The sports commission hosted a national Taekwondo championship event this year, and I promoted the event on social media in advance, in addition to attending the event and creating reels during and after with footage of some of the matches, some cool roundhouse kicks, and just showcasing the amazing athletes that were there competing. 

A couple months later at an industry conference, someone from USA Taekwondo presented the sports commission team with one of their championship gold medals as a thank you for outstanding social media promotion, which the team passed along to me. It’s proudly hanging up at my desk, and it’s heavier than I thought it would be!

My career moment was publishing! Some of you know I’m passionate about the issue of burnout among communicators working in the social media space. I took the next step, built on a few talks I’d given and wrote a book on the subject! 

When you work in the digital space and things can be deleted quickly, it’s an AMAZING feeling to hold something with permanence like your book in your hands.

My biggest 2024 reflection is the growth I have personally had through change within my organization. Bringing teams together and building tons of new relationships done mainly virtually is such a challenge, but I have grown so much this year and really proud of that and all that is to come in 2025! And a plug for Sprout helping to bring our team together virtually is truly the glue where we can improve processes, find efficiencies and make our day-to-day social media world much better! :)
