SMART goals I am working towards are to increase my visibility and brand awareness on social medias and LinkedIn.

This would be done through advanced content creation for daily posts on social medias and weekly articles on LinkedIn.

To make it possible I will schedule my posts one week in advance and for one day I will do a LIVE video.

By advanced planning I will combat my lack of creativity or time to post.

Success on social medias is in being visible and active.

I would like to maintain this consistency on monthly basis till the end of this year.

Specific - Create a blog

Measurable - Go live with a blog that has 30 articles within 2 months.

Attainable - I can write 2000 words every second day (odd number) and edit my content (even numbers)

Relevant - It would serve as excellent market exposure, and improve my writing and editing on specific topics.

Timebound - 60 days

As I recently started out as a content creator, I won't be able to provide the time for my SMART goal. I can only state that my goal is to establish a foundation of viewers and 100 subscribers.

While this is just my second week, can safely say a SMART goal is to increase leads to conversions markedly, MoM. 📈After more updates, will be able to attach a number to the SMART goal.
