Paid Social marketing is the practice of strategising, managing and optimising paid ad campaigns on social media platforms to reach specific audiences. Different campaign objectives can include increasing brand awareness, driving consideration and conversion.
Facebook and Instagram are the most established social media ad platforms, however their primacy is constantly being challenged by the likes of Snapchat, LinkedIn, Pinterest and most recently, TikTok.
For those companies with access to top-tier paid social specialists, there are great advantages to be won on some of the less saturated ad platforms.
Freelance Paid Social Marketers are a great, cost-effective solution for your marketing department. Not only will they bring their broad experience of working for other companies, but their sole focus will be their specialism.

Agencies have multiple clients to manage, meaning your company won't always be a top priority. Hiring a freelancer means you pay for their full attention, and consistently work with an expert who comes to you with fresh eyes.
A freelancer will be paid by the day or hour, with their priority being your company's social media. This means it won't get pushed to the bottom of the list and will be properly looked-after. A fresh perspective on your company's image by an outside freelancer is a positive thing, especially when it comes to social media.
Analytics can be used in social media to track that KPIs are being reached over a period of time. Specialists should also note which posts perform best and what frequency and time of posting achieves the best results. If a Google Ad is performing well a specialist might recommend putting more money behind it. Likewise, if it's performing poorly, a recommendation could be to try a different Ad or target audience.
The channels covered depend on the client and desired customer base. Most Paid Social Specialists should expect to work on traditional channels like Instagram and LinkedIn, but specialists could be hired for their expertise on channels that reach a specific demographic like TikTok or BeReal.
Your hire should work quickly and be able to respond to news and trends as they happen. They should have prior knowledge of what works and what doesn’t in social media trends and be aware of best practices across the channels you've chosen to use. They should also be able to gather relevant, engaging content and help create it, too.
