Hey everyone!

I’m Terry and recently started a Social Media Marketing Specialist role. I post for a few different brands and also support the sales staffs personal social media efforts. 

  1. What brought me to the Arb community, was honestly an email from Sprout Social, which my company just adopted. I have little professional experience with social media, and so I’m looking to learn anything and everything I can to further my career and help my company. 
  2. I’m particularly interested in paid social and tracking the performance on GA4! 
  3. One big challenge of mine is defining my brand’s social media strategy - particularly, what should and shouldn’t be posted on LinkedIn vs Facebook, etc. It’s easy to stick with a calendar and post for the sake of brand awareness. But what are we really looking to accomplish on each platform?
    Another related challenge is that I’m in the mortgage industry, and thus far much of my content has been geared toward Realtors and other referral sources. On the other hand, what do our end consumers actually care about? How can I create content that is appealing and more easily digestible for prospective home buyers?
  4. I love being creative! Whether that’s playing in the town symphonic band, creating my own digital music or mashups, or even experimenting on Blender 3D graphic software - that’s a very new one, and a really difficult one to get into (I just created my first 3D donut)!
  5. I am really interested in figuring out how I can apply a “less is more” approach to social media. While we have an in-house graphic designer, I think it would be great if I could learn the basics of design to create great posts/ads!

whoa… that’s a lot of new members!
