❝I feel much more confident calling myself a Social Media Manager. I used to hold back from that title because I didn't feel like I was genuinely one, since my actual 9-5 job title didn't reflect it. But in reality, I was heading in the right direction and didn't need a corporate title to define who I am or what I can do.❞
