The Ultimate Guide to Becoming a Freelance Social Media Manager

The Freelance Social Media Management Roadmap is a fully self-paced online program for freelance social media managers who are starting out, or just want to kick things up a notch. A practical course that’s heavy on business advice, created with social media professionals in mind. 

By the end of the course, you will know everything you need in order to grow your social media management business, including:

  • how to market yourself online using social media

  • how to host a successful client discovery call… that actually converts

  • the exact client workflows I use to foster relationships that last

  • the basic steps of setting up a targeted Facebook ad

  • my process for getting paid on time, every time


For only $97, you will get a system to put your social media skills in motion and build yourself a business you truly love.


How Does It Work?

The course consists mainly of slides with voiceover, videos, and screen shares. You also get resource guides with links, templates, and examples you can use immediately. You can learn at your own pace and return to refresh your knowledge any time. 

Who is this course for?

The Freelance Social Media Management Roadmap focuses on the business side of freelancing as a social media manager, with a touch of social media strategy and best practices. It is aimed at beginners, but, ideally, you should already be confident with social media platforms.


If you are...


...familiar with managing social media for others, and you’re ready to quit your 9-to-5...


...experienced as an influencer or content creator, and you would like to turn your skillset into a profitable business... 


...already freelancing, and you are looking to learn from my experience to avoid common mistakes... 


...doing well as a freelance social media manager, and you’re ready to perfect your workflow and grow your business... 


This Course Has Something For You…

This is my signature course, where I give you a framework to start your own freelance business; something that’s allowed me to live a life I truly love. Hundreds of people have already gone through this program and went on to build successful businesses of their own.

 Can I Afford It?

This is a one-time investment of $97. You will have lifetime access* to all materials, meaning you can take it over and over again, and also receive each new update that is released.

*for as long as the course exists

This was the first Latasha James course I had ever taken and I was so impressed that I purchased more of her content. She is so informative and really knows what she is talking about. My husband has heard me take multiple different social media manager courses and Latasha James was the only one where he spoke up and said, "she sounds like she's giving some really good information". My husband works in a restaurant, not social media and even he can tell her content stands out above the rest. Thank you for everything, Latasha. You are helping others achieve their dreams!

I say that because it really is a toe dip in the water. You know how before you go swimming and you want to feel what the temperature of the water BEFORE you jump in? Well, that is what this course is about. She doesn't necessarily explain step by step everything it takes to be a Social Media manager, but she explain the ROLES and RESPONSIBILITIES of what this career. It is great course to take if you are interested in and not experienced. I appreciate the time she put into this course. It helped me. And after taking this course, I have a BETTER understanding of what I'm getting myself into. I willllllll be keeping in contact with LJ for more knowledge. THANK YOUU!!! :)
