Fake it ’til you make it… as a social media community manager

Liking, tweeting, moderating and keeping up with hashtags, Homaira Razi from Yahoo!7 tells us how.

What does a social media community manager do?

Post, tweet, share and repeat. You need to be online all day and watch the world through your camera phone lens so you don’t miss a moment for others to enjoy. In this job you also get to watch TV all day. We are constantly on the hunt for the latest trending topic and tweaking our strategy so we can remain entertaining and relevant to fans across social networks. Social media is the new opium of the masses so it is important not to get too high on your own supply.

So it’s just a lot of re-tweeting and ‘liking’ stuff then?
