For Christmas, I got South of Midnight and I am hooked! Not sure how many Social Media Managers love gaming but ya girl had been busy this weekend. I hope everyone is enjoying the holidays and resting when you can.

Social media is not dead it's shifting so learn to pivot. 2026 is the year of the pivot.

🤷🏾‍♀️ What have I been up to? I created a Social Media Planner! Since I could not find one thag had what I needed, I decided to create my own. Look it up on Amazon, it's called the Social Media Executive Planner. Let me know what you think! 🗨

Starting my morning with a Social Media Manager breakfast. 🤨 What makes it that? It's my breakfast that fills my specific nutritional needs.

🙋🏾‍♀️ I am diabetic and living my best life eating the foods that make me happy and fuel my body while balancing what my body needs and jamming to music.

🤷🏾‍♀️ What am I doing right now? Watching Latasha James's new video with Dee Greene from Undeterred on "Why your online community isn't growing..."

I'm 18 minutes in and this conversation had me at the jump. I recommend checking it out and learning something. 🖤

Watch it. What do you think?

What books are you reading (for those who work in social media or marketing in some capacity)?

👏🏾 Match my social media freak as I share my thoughts on the path I would have liked to see Twitter take. Ep. 2 of Kiss My Analytics is out now on YouTube! 😎

🎯 Hit your goals, virality isn't the goal, it's a byproduct. What is going to pay your bills, selling your product or service, or a viral video that reached plenty of people who won't buy a thing? 😏

What is a Social Media Manager? 🤷🏽‍♀️Well, it's complicated, but at the base, it is the person who manages your brand voice across all social media channels. 👩🏽‍💻

Has anyone else watched the recent conversation Stripe's John Collison had with Mark Zuckerberg about advanced tech shaping global economies? Mark sounds like an alien who continues to dehumanize his products. Is it just me, or do other people find that counter-intuitive? 🤨

Organic social media is underrated and that needs to change. Genuine connections, and authentic conversations, can turn into real sales. When people vibe with your brand and it meets their needs they will buy it. Just start.

For platforms that had so much potential & got wasted, Twitter/X is at the top. They could've taken the creative route with authors, scriptwriters, artists & more to use it as a connecting platform to talk to people using spaces. I wanted to see Twitter threads with chapters of short stories & more.

Can't wait, my new podcast comes out soon. Here's to new experiences with Kiss My Analytics podcast!
