I know most business owners have never heard of a T-shaped marketer before, but let me explain why it matters for your social media. 🤔
A T-shaped marketer is someone who’s solid in many areas of marketing but has deep expertise in one.
Imagine having someone on your side who understands strategy, content creation, social platforms, analytics—and maybe they’re an absolute pro at storytelling or running ads. 🎯
Now, maybe you’re wondering why not just hire a specialist.
Specialists are great, but here’s the thing:
➡ Social media moves fast. A T-shaped marketer adapts because they know enough across the board.
➡ They can switch from writing engaging posts to analyzing what’s actually working—so nothing gets missed.
➡ You get one person with both big-picture vision and hands-on skills—which is ideal when you can’t afford to hire a whole team yet.
➡ They bridge gaps so your brand voice stays consistent everywhere online.
How do you spot someone who’s truly T-shaped? 🤔
Here’s what I’d look for:
1️⃣ Ask about their background—can they talk confidently about content, analytics, and campaigns?
2️⃣ Look for versatility in their portfolio: photos, videos, data reports—do they handle it all?
3️⃣ Notice if they ask strategic questions about your business—not just when to post or which hashtags to use.
But what if you can’t find that perfect person yet—or maybe hiring is just out of reach right now?
