i fear nothing i do will ever top this (big love friends 💜)

In January I set myself goals for 2024: 🏡 Buy a house 🏃♀️ Run 10k 📚 Read at least one book a month (spoiler alert: none of that happened) Life has thrown me some absolute shockers over the last 6 months And so my goals have taken a backseat while I adjust and prioritise myself Does that make me a failure? Absolutely not While I haven’t achieved the things I wanted to yet, I have ✍ Contributed to Xandrina Allday’s book “Dear Social Media Manager" 🤸♀️ Made going to the gym 3-4 times a week a routine 🚴♀️ Discovered I really enjoy spinning??? 🤡 Hosted a meme masterclass with Pretty Little Marketer 🧠 Prioritised my mental health 🏠 Learned how to live on my own again 💜 Spent SO much time with friends (ily) 💬 Networked my butt off If you’re struggling with feeling like you haven’t achieved what you wanted to yet, remember that progress isn’t just about ticking off a list Take a step back and look at how far you’ve come Bestie, 2023 you would be SO proud ❤

In 6 months EYR have reached over 100M people This is how: 🎥 Video content - Our how-to video content was getting the best results, so we doubled down and now have an archive full of inspiring content for educators 👀 being obsessed with our audience - We know EXACTLY where our audience hangs out, what they love, and even their favourite TV shows 💅 Platform specific strategies - What works for TikTok won't necessarily work for Instagram, so we leveraged what we knew about each platform to tailor our content accordingly All these points have one thing in common: Data So this is just a polite Monday reminder that a lot of analysis and research goes into social media management Those silly little TikToks you see? Just the tip of the iceberg baby 🧊
