Emphasizing Work-Life Balance and Mental Health: Holly highlights the importance of creating a sustainable work environment to prevent burnout. She achieves this by dividing the social media job into specialized roles—strategy, communications, and creative—allowing her team to focus on specific tasks without being overwhelmed. Ensuring work-life balance by giving her team evenings and weekends off, unless there's an emergency, contributes to maintaining mental health and long-term productivity.
Educational Initiatives for Team and Clients: Recognizing the evolving nature of social media, Holly emphasizes the need for continuous education. Monarch is developing a course to teach the social aspects of social media management, both for internal team members and small businesses. This initiative underscores the importance of staying updated with industry trends and practices, ensuring that both the agency and its clients are well-equipped to navigate the digital marketing landscape effectively.
