How to pick the right partner

Marketing specialist or assistant?

Assistants handle scheduling, inboxes, and simple posting. A marketing specialist owns a channel. Price and vetting differ a lot between the two.

What does the price include?

Ask whether the quote is the talent’s pay or an all-in rate with payroll and the agency fee inside it.

Do they train on AI?

Some firms run a real program with set hours or lessons. Others only screen for AI skills. Ask what the training covers and how it’s checked.
