Starting a career as a Social Media Manager this event is for you.

The Social Media Manager job market is hot right now. Social Media marketing has become a necessity for businesses of all kinds and sizes.

And with 10’s of 1000’s of local jobs available ranging from salaries of $30,000 to $110,000 per year and an abundance of freelancer (and “Side Hustle”) opportunities… The coming decade has been poised for Social Media careers.

Being a Social Media Manager is a multifaceted job: You’re a tech guru one minute, a community moderator the next and a copywriter and PR consultant after that. Whether you’re a freelancer looking for your next big client or a job seeker looking for full-time, part-time or even remote work from home, the competition is fierce and you’ll need to stand out in the job market to get any attention.

In this presentation you’ll learn from Matt Astifan, 10 year veteran in the Social Media Industry, who has consulted for 100’s of companies and trained 1000’s more. You will discover insider secrets to help you land your next big paycheque and launch your Social Media career.

You will discover:

➡ How to optimize (or hide!) your own Social Media accounts so that you don’t sabotosh your chances of getting interviewed (Hint: Changing Your Name Isn’t Enough)

➡ How to position yourself BEFORE the interview so that you demand a higher pay and avoid being stuck as the “Underpaid Intern” for months or even years

➡ The Three Big Skills every Social Media employer wants you to have (and you should master) that has nothing to do with marketing or sales

➡ Why you should avoid 99% of jobs… and how to find the 1% of jobs that pay more, position your career, and help you become a Social Media authority

➡ And much much more! You’ll have a chance to ask Matt anything for a full 30 minute Q&A session

This is a free event however, we only have 30 spots available to the public (the rest are reserved for students of Langara).
