If you're getting a lot of clients through your social media and you feel like you spend almost more time on your phone than you do on the things you’d rather be doing, it might be time to hire a social media manager.

This is a fairly easy problem to solve, so before you spend one second more beating yourself up, let’s approach this like a math …
