It's incredibly easy to become burnt out as a social media manager.

It's not like it's a 'post to Instagram' + then you're done job.

(Despite what some people think)

It's a job that never switches off. There's always posts to share, comments to respond to, content to create, trends to keep up with + new features to learn (cheers IG).

And even when you close your laptop at the end of the day, it's easy to open up the apps on your phone + start scrolling.

If you're not careful, your brain will stay in 'work' mode.

So what can you do to avoid becoming overwhelmed, exhausted, burnt out + resentful of your clients?

Tune into this episode of The Price with Confidence Podcast where I’m sharing the signs you’re on the brink of burnout + how to avoid becoming completely burnt out as a social media manager.

"You can always tell a social media manager who's busy with clients because their socials really take a hit!"

"We don't want to upset or offend out clients.....but it's so important for your mental health."

"It's not an emergency for me because you've decided you want to do something on the spur of the moment."

One of the most common questions I get asked is “How often should I increase my prices?” or “When is the right time to increase my prices?”.

I’m a firm believer in doing what’s right for you and your business. I don’t believe in there being a ‘one size fits all’ perfect answer to these questions however there are a few key signs that your current prices are no longer serving you.

Want to know what they are so you can decide whether you’re ready to increase your prices?

Tune into this episode of The Price with Confidence Podcast where we’re discussing why you’re reluctant to raise your rates, when the right time to increase your prices is and whether or not you should change your prices for your current clients.

Episode 12: You can change your prices whenever you want

W E C O V E R:

[00:51] Why pricing is so uncomfortable

[01:57] You can change your prices whenever you want

[03:44] 6 Signs it’s time to raise your rates

[09:25] Should you increase your prices with your current clients?

[12:53] When NOT to increase your prices

[15:05] One of my fave client success stories

Q U O T E S:

“Your fears are there to stop you embarrassing yourself, stop you making a fool of yourself, to stop you doing something that might hurt you.”

“You have to make the decision to push through those fears, to push out of your comfort zone and to take action, even though you're scared.”

“You don't have to make a drastic change where you double the price or you start charging three times more than you were, you can just increase a little bit.”

“I like to make sure that my clients feel valued and feel appreciated but I also like to make sure that I don't undervalue myself as well.”

When I started out as a social media manager in 2017, I felt like I couldn’t charge what I needed for my services because I was new. I had limited experience, I was self taught and I definitely wasn’t the best social media manager out there.

The idea that I had to be the best to get paid well left me underearning, overwhelmed and on the brink of burnout.

The truth is, you don’t have to be the best to be paid what you deserve and in this episode of The Price with Confidence Podcast I’ll be diving into how imposter syndrome can affect the price you charge and why you’re worthy of being paid well, even if you’re not the best in the world.

Episode 11: You don’t have to be the best social media manager to be paid well for your services

W E C O V E R:

[00:53] I’m joined by a very special guest!

[01:49] How imposter syndrome held me back in my business + how it’s protecting you

[05:15] What your clients really want when they’re hiring a social media manager

[06:54] Why someone will hire you over anyone else

[10:20] Why you deserve to be paid well even if you’re not the best in the world

[11:22] Your responsibilities as a social media manager

Q U O T E S:

“I had never heard of the phrase imposter syndrome but I noticed that when I started to get results for clients, I didn't really believe that they were good enough. And despite the praise that I was getting from the clients, I didn't believe that they were actually happy.”

“If you price lower than you need to, it protects you.”

“The truth is, the clients who are hiring you aren't looking for the best social media manager in the world, they want someone who can elevate their brand online, who can grow their community and ultimately increase their sales.”

“You have to recognise how valuable you are to a client, no matter what stage in your business you're at.”

Choosing what to charge for social media management services is a decision that can be overwhelming, confusing and difficult to make.

It’s common for people to think they have to price their services based on how many posts they’ll be sharing for their clients but actually, this isn’t true.

In this episode of The Price with Confidence Podcast, I’ll be sharing how to price your services as a social media manager without including the number of posts you’ll share and how you can respond to potential clients who want to know how often you’ll be posting.

Episode 10: Why you shouldn’t price per post as a social media manager

W E C O V E R:

[00:34] Why it’s natural to think you should price per post

[01:14] Why posting every day isn’t worth more than posting 3 times per week

[01:44] Why you shouldn’t commit to a number of posts before you start working with them

[03:20] How you price your services if you don’t price per post

[05:52] How to respond when someone asks how many posts you’ll be sharing for them

Q U O T E S:

“Although you'd think posting every day is of higher value than posting three times a week, it’s not.”

“Your client shouldn't give a shit about how many posts you're sharing for them, they should be giving a shit about the actual, tangible results that you're going to get for them.”

“As long as you are confident in what you're doing, you remember that you're the expert and you explain why you don't commit to a certain number of posts, your potential client should be happy to follow your lead.”

If you’re running a business as a social media manager, chances are you’ve been told you’re too expensive at least once.

In the early days of my business, I’d accept their opinion of my price - and instantly drop what I charged to suit that opinion - because I was so desperate to hear the yes.

After working to increase my confidence and self worth, I realised I wasn’t too expensive and my services were most definitely worth the price tag I’d placed on them.

I stopped dropping my prices and learned how to confidently respond when someone believed I was too expensive. In this episode of The Price with Confidence Podcast I’m sharing a 4 step strategy that you can use the next time someone questions your price.

Episode 9: “You’re too expensive!” Here’s how to respond

W E C O V E R:

[00:35] What it actually means when someone tells you you’re too expensive

[01:16] Why I struggled with being rejected for my price

[03:44] The first thing you need to do before you respond

[04:42] Write out an empowerment list

[06:00] How affirmations helped me transform my life

[09:26] Get out your journal and answer this prompt

[10:48] What you include in the actual response

J O U R N A L P R O M P T S:

➡️ Empowerment list: 30 Reasons I know I’m worthy of the price I charge

➡️ Now that I’m confident in who I am + the value of my services, this is how I choose to respond to potential clients who ask for it cheaper

Q U O T E S:

“It means absolutely nothing about you, it means nothing about your business, it doesn't mean that you are too expensive, it just means their perception of your prices is that it's outside of their budget.”

“Within the space of a year, I transformed my life so much that I quit the 9 to 5 that I was nearly fired from and I actually went backpacking solo, around Southeast Asia.”

“Don't be scared to let a client go.”

“By standing your ground with your price, you're reinforcing the fact that you know you're worthy of your prices, and you're leaving space for a better client to enter your world.”

We’ve all been in situations where someone - intentionally or unintentionally - has tried to undervalue us as a social media manager.

Maybe they wanted you to drop your prices or expected a response from you at 11pm.

If you have a moment of doubt or you lack confidence, it may feel easier to lower the price to hear the yes or respond to the email for fear they’ll sack you.

But you deserve to be valued and to ensure you are, it’s important you value yourself first which is why in this episode of The Price with Confidence Podcast, I’ll be sharing 3 steps you can take to make sure you don’t undervalue yourself and what you can do if someone tries to undervalue you.

Episode 8: How not to undervalue yourself as a social media manager

W E C O V E R:

[00:45] What happens when you value yourself

[04:26] 3 Steps to take to make sure you don’t undervalue yourself

[08:08] Important boundaries you can set with your clients

[10:59] What to do when someone tries to undervalue you

Q U O T E S:

“It's very hard to undervalue someone who recognises how worthy they are, who is full of self confidence, who's full of belief in themselves, and who knows and stands strong in the value that they deliver.”

“​​When you value yourself and your skills, you empower your peers to value themselves and their services. And who doesn't want to contribute to the empowerment of others in the industry?”

“When you have people out there offering their services for next to nothing, it gives this impression to outsiders and to people looking to hire social media managers, that the service isn't worth that much either.”

“If you try to cling on to them by lowering your price, you undervalue yourself, and then you're going to end up feeling really resentful.”

We’re all guilty of this when we lack confidence in our pricing.

We get on a call with a potential client, discuss their needs, think about our packages and then worry they won’t be able to afford to pay our prices.

And sometimes we drop our prices before we’ve even given the client a chance to pay our actual price. (Or was that just me?)

This guesswork around what someone will or won’t pay is harming your business and in this episode of The Price with Confidence Podcast I’m going to share with you why it’s so damaging and what your responsibility is when it comes to your prices.

Episode 7: Stop trying to guess what your clients can afford

W E C O V E R:

[00:43] Why assuming what your clients can afford is harming your business

[01:53] What happens when you change your beliefs around what someone will pay

[02:57] How you’re disempowering your potential clients

[05:07] Your responsibility when it comes to pricing your services

Q U O T E S:

“When you decide what your clients can or can't afford, you already enter the sales conversations expecting to be paid a lower price than you want or need or deserve.”

“If you don't give people the opportunity to pay your higher prices, they're going to pay you a low price because they've got no other option. People can only pay you what you ask for.”

“It's not for you to decide the amount of money that they want to invest to support themselves.”

If you find working out what to charge overwhelming, if you’re not earning what you need, if you lack confidence in how much to charge or you’re ready to raise your rates + you want to learn an empowering way to do so, you’re gonna LOVE this.

In this episode of The Price with Confidence Podcast, I’m breaking down my 4 step strategy for pricing your services with confidence as a social media manager and sharing with you the pricing formula that’ll help you discover exactly how much YOU should be charging for your services.

Episode 6: The Price with Confidence Method™ for social media managers

W E C O V E R:

[00:38] Where the Price with Confidence Method™ came from

[01:08] Why you can’t just chuck a number on your services

[02:27] I didn’t go from charging £37.50 to £400 per platform overnight

[03:33] Step one: Of course we’re starting with this

[05:13] A powerful exercise for stepping into your next level

[06:53] Step two: Getting clear on what you actually want

[07:38] Step three: Learning the pricing formula

[07:53] Deciding how + when you want to implement it

[08:37] How it became the pricing burger

[09:33] Step four: What you need to uncover when you’ve got your new price

[11:22] The reason the Price with Confidence Method™ is so powerful

J O U R N A L P R O M P T S:

➡️ What does future you, who is already signing clients at a higher price, who is making more money, who has more freedom, what would they feel about the price that you need to charge?

➡️ Now that I’m confidently signing clients at this higher price....

• what do I believe about myself?
• what action(s) am I taking everyday?
• what do I know to be true about my ability to sign clients at that price?

Q U O T E S:

“When you feel good about the amount you're charging, it's much easier for you to sign clients at that price.”

“You get out of where you are right now with your limiting beliefs and your fears and your what ifs and you step into the shoes of the person who is already charging that amount and who is already signing clients at that amount.”

“There is nothing to say that you need to earn your stripes before you can start charging what you need.”

“It allows you to hit your income goals without hustle because you’re making the decision around how many platforms you want to manage, you’re choosing how busy you want to be.”
