Careers in Social Media

Have you ever considered doing Social Media as a Career?

It a field that is rapidly growing.  Here’s an interesting Infographic:  http://www.entrepreneur.com/article/228651

Many people know the basics of Facebook, Twitter, and LinkedIn – and you might be very good at setting each up and navigating through them.

Many organizations are in need of someone with these skills.  Generally, it’s good to have a degree, but being able to show your skills is very important as well. 

Combine that with some Journalism or Marketing experience (or classes), and you could be what some places are looking for.

Don’t think of businesses only – although there are thousands who need such help.  Social Media has become very popular with non-profits as well.

If working for a large company does not appeal to you, it’s also a great field for people who want to work for themselves. 

No experience?  Volunteer to help an organization whose cause appeals to you.
