Social Media Manager
Perhaps you have sensibly decided to participate in social media but due to time constraints, it is not feasible. Hiring a social media manager is a great way to solve this problem.
By clearly communicating with the social media manager, you can have the information posted in your voice. You will need to allow access to your accounts but it will be safe by creating a written agreement which will enable you to have control of the account including usernames and passwords once the manager is no longer on the job.
Discuss and have in writing who will own the content that is posted after the job is paid for. Copyrights can belong to you or the writer (after first rights) depending upon the agreement that you have made. Failure to discuss this will spell disaster and discord down the road.
