Stop Hiring Unicorns. Start Building Teams. I don’t know how many times I need to say this... Hiring a Marketing Manager? They are not your: Social Media Manager Paid Media Manager SEO Manager Copywriter Email Marketing Manager Events Coordinator Brand Manager Affiliate Manager PR Manager 👉 Inspired by Tom Pestridge, whose insights continue to challenge outdated hiring practices. These are specialized roles—each demanding unique skills, tools, and experience. Expecting one person to master them all? That’s not strategic. That’s setting them up to fail. Recruiters and companies need to do better. A Marketing Manager should lead strategy, not juggle every execution task. If you want real growth, build a team. Don’t chase unicorns. What’s one role you’ve seen wrongly bundled into “Marketing Manager”? ♻ Repost to educate your network.

So true. I’ve often seen Marketing Managers expected to be full time designers too. One role can’t carry an entire department. Teams create growth, not unicorns.

One Comment Got Me 27,000 Impressions — Without Posting Daily Yes, 27,000+ impressions from a single LinkedIn comment. Here’s how (and you can do it too, In Shaa Allah): I found a post from a top creator in my niche. I commented fast. Kept it short, honest, and value packed. No hype. Just help. Why it worked: → Viral post = high visibility → Early comment = top position → Relevant insight = engagement That one comment will bring profile visits, connection requests — and even leads in Shaa Allah. If you’re a founder and business owner tired of posting daily with low results… You don’t need more content. You need better visibility. Start commenting smart. As a social media marketing manager, I help you attract clients with smart strategy — not stress. #Business #SocialMediaMarketing #LinkedInTips #HalalMarketing #Businessowner #InboundLeads

Use the first 2 lines as your headline → Cut the fluff. Make readers stop scrolling with a bold claim or strong question. Reply to every comment in the first hour → Boosts visibility.
