If you’ve been quietly wondering if you’re the only social media manager struggling to book clients lately—you’re not. This episode is a real talk moment for SMMs who are feeling stuck, questioning their services, or just plain exhausted from chasing full-service management leads that aren’t converting.

In this episode, I’m walking you through:

• A simple framework to figure out if it’s time to pivot—or just wait it out
• 15 social media manager offers that DON’T require full management
• Mindset shifts to help you stop spiraling and start selling again
• How to turn your existing services into accessible, high-impact alternatives

These service ideas are designed to help you regain momentum, protect your peace, and start generating consistent income—even in a slow season.
