I see this a lot.
The marketing manager sets the marketing strategy, and here’s what follows:
Then they need an ad.
A social post needs to go out.
The website needs an update.
A brochure needs revisions.
Sales needs a presentation.
A trade show is coming.
Suddenly, the person responsible for leading the marketing is also producing every piece of it.
That is not a motivation problem.
It is a capacity problem, and it can quickly lead to burnout.
Outside creative support can give a marketing manager room to focus on the work they were actually hired to do—planning, prioritizing, and moving the company forward.
The right creative partner should not add another person to manage.
They should help carry the workload.
