Signs It's Time to Hire a Social Media Manager - Before it costs you More.

If you’re a small business owner in Kitsap County, you probably already know social media is important, but that doesn’t mean you have the time, energy, or knowledge to run it well. And that’s okay. Most business owners don’t.

Are you guilty of the following?

1. You’re Inconsistent… Even Though You Mean Well

Posting once, then disappearing for two weeks? That’s a sign you’re overwhelmed. Inconsistent posting isn’t just “less effective”, it actually hurts your reach over time.

2. You Have No Strategy

If you’re creating posts on the fly, repurposing random trends, or guessing what your audience wants, you’re wasting time. A social media manager creates a data-backed content plan aligned with your goals.

3. You Don’t Have Time to Edit Reels or Write Good Captions

Content creation takes longer than people realize. A simple 20-second reel can take:

• 20–30 minutes to film

• 30–60 minutes to edit

• 15 minutes to craft a strategic caption

  
  

  Hiring someone who does this every day instantly accelerates your momentum.

4. Your Competitors Show Up Better Online

If similar businesses in Poulsbo, Silverdale, or Bainbridge Island are gaining traction online, it’s not luck. It’s consistency, strategy, and professional content.

5. You Want to Grow, But Not Burn Out

A social media manager protects your time while increasing your brand visibility. Your hands stay free for:

• Serving clients

• Growing your business

• Doing the work you love

  
  

If you’re guilty of 2–3 of these, you’re more than ready to hire support.
