And you want to know the best thing? Doing more social listening is really going to allow you to jump up into invoicing your clients at the four figures per month mark.
So what is social listening, then? Social listening is so much more than just having notifications switched on for when someone mentions your client. Whilst this is a great start, there are so many other places you can be looking for information on your clients’ business, product or service – and their competitors’.

We’ll tell you what to do with them in the episode, too.
