In this kick off episode, we’ll be going to Social Media Manager 101 school as we talk about the history of Social Media and the origin story of how this role came to be.

If you think about it..  The Social Media Manager role DID NOT exist 10 years ago.

⭐️Instagram launched in 2010

⭐️Tiktok launched in 2016 and took off in 2020

Social media has evolved to being more than just a “photo sharing” app and more than just a way to stay connected with your loved ones. If there’s one thing that the 2020 global pandemic taught us.. it’s that we are WAY MORE connected through social media then we knew. In 2020, social media wasn’t just a “nice to have'' for businesses… it became a NECESSITY for businesses in order to still show up for their customers in order to grow and scale their business.

With this demand for this role increasing at a rapid rate, we see Social Media Managers entering the scene from all levels to GET..👏 THE JOB…👏👏 DONE.👏👏👏

That is why The Social Party podcast exists, to create and cultivate a community for all SMM’s to jumpstart, build and grow in our profession together.
