We’re excited to introduce you to the always interesting and insightful Shenell Ward . We hope you’ll enjoy our conversation with Shenell below.
Shenell, appreciate you joining us today. Do you manage your own social media?
I presently manage my business social media. Since I am a team of 1 right now having to manage it doesn’t really bother me too much.
I know later on down the line I will have to hire a social media team, but I love the fact that you can now schedule Instagram posts ahead of time. This feature is a game changer for me and my business. It frees up my time to do other things when it comes to my brand.
Shenell, love having you share your insights with us. Before we ask you more questions, maybe you can take a moment to introduce yourself to our readers who might have missed our earlier conversations?
