Impact formulas
- Growth + metric (e.g. 'Grew X from Y to Z; engagement rate A%')
- Budget + ROI (e.g. 'Managed $X budget; generated Y leads at $Z CPL')
- Content + reach (e.g. 'Created X posts/month; achieved Y impressions')
Lead with growth metrics (followers, engagement rate, reach), campaign ROI (CPL, ROAS, conversions), and content volume. Show platform-specific expertise and analytics tools (Meta Business Suite, Sprout Social, Hootsuite).
Tailor to the role — organic roles emphasise content and engagement; paid roles emphasise budget and ROI; community roles emphasise retention and advocacy. WadeCV can help you align your social media experience with specific job descriptions.
