Transcript
What does a day in the life of a media agency company look like?
In the morning, we start by checking emails and updates. I always have a 9:30 AM meeting with my team to ensure we're aligned on our tasks, deliverables, and goals.
I make sure my team is communicating effectively and is available if they need anything from me. During midday, we have strategy or brainstorming calls to plan upcoming client campaigns and initiatives.
Sometimes, we visit client offices to create content for their social media or websites. This often involves video shoots where we ensure the client looks good, having prepared scripts and other necessary materials.
In the afternoon, we start approving content and check in with the team to see if anyone needs help or is up to date with their tasks. We also schedule client meetings to ensure we're on track with their timelines and address any needs.
In the evening, I attend networking events. It's important to engage with the community and build connections that can lead to future opportunities. I also use this time to stay updated on trends and plan for future projects.
