I used this course to re-launch a previous creative writing newsletter on video and for IG. The tools from this course gave me the skills to launch this project thoughtfully and gave me a portfolio for the job market! From real-like practice and supportive feedback, through Joellen's relatable and motivating teaching style, taking this course was a highlight of the last couple months.

My favorite thing about the course was putting together the images/mood for each assignment and getting feedback from Joellen. She makes the assignments fun and inspiring, making the learning experience enjoyable. I feel much more confident now in applying for social media manager (and other that include knowledge of social as a bonus) positions

The strategy part was a game-changer for me because I think not many clients/brands focus on that part. I love knowing about setting goals and KPIs and managing expectations. Joellen's helped me a lot during office hours and with her feedback, so I'm forever grateful for her help! One good thing that came out of the course is landing a job and several freelance clients!!! I started my career in copywriting and I'm now officially a Social Media Manager in the entertainment industry (which is a dream come true) - I owe it all to the ilovecreatives team honestly.

The best part of the course was getting to interact with Joellen. Her feedback was super helpful! I used the course to help prepare me to have a conversation with my boss (basically pitching my SMM services to him), which I now feel I can have given all of the decks I put together throughout the course.

The Social Media Manager Course helped launch my career pivot. I was able to secure a freelance social media gig because of the projects I worked on during this course, and that was my ultimate goal! I can’t thank Joellen enough for all her help and feedback—I felt supported every step of the way. This was the most entertaining course I’ve ever taken and it laid down a great foundation for my transition into the social media field.

This course was so incredibly insightful. It gave me a different look and perspective on social that I haven’t seen before. Joellen made tackling a social strategy seem so easy, and I especially appreciated how in-detail the lessons go for building reports. Not to mention the real-world advice I couldn't have found anywhere else. Joellen truly is an expert and just as importantly, she’s hilarious. 10/10.
