re: #277 Lidane

Hola! I would like to vent slightly this morning.

The most obnoxious people I’ve ever had to deal with are obsessive micromanagers. I have one client who consistently rewrites all my social media content to shoehorn in his flowery marketing language and slogans everyfuckingwhere and it’s driving me crazy.

Yes, social media for a business IS marketing. Everyone knows this. But the trick is to sound conversational in your posts, NOT tossing in your company slogan every time or making everything sound like a commercial or whatever the fuck.

I deliberately changed tactics from doing all my calendars in a spreadsheet to using an automation tool precisely to slow this asshole down and stop him from rewriting all my shit. I also took previous content he’d ALREADY approved and just made slight tweaks, just to lower my chances of him having edits. Right now, he’s literally going post by post and demanding revisions to everything. *facepalm*

All my other clients love this new tool because it saves them time and they can see what their posts will look like. They’ve taken to it like ducks to water. Not Mr. Micromanager. Ugh.

Business would be great if it wasn’t for the clients
