Write captions and reply to comments and DMs
Research trends and formats and bring fresh ideas to a weekly strategy session
Get involved in other marketing such as SEO, email marketing and paid ads, areas the firm hasn’t focused on yet and wants to develop
Use AI-assisted editing tools to work efficiently and keep output consistent
