Questions for you, Erin
Answer these and your audit sharpens from good to precise. These are the gaps where your goals, content focus, or target audience weren’t fully clear to us.
Does she maintain personal Instagram, Facebook, or X accounts? If so, what are the handles and sizes? Are they personal or employer-blended?
Does she want to build a personal brand independent of Exploration Place? Or is her goal purely to drive Exploration Place's marketing performance?
Is she aware that googling her name returns a photographer, a philosopher, and a YA author? Has she ever thought about how to claim her name in search?
Has she considered buying erinmanningmba.com or a similar variant? Would she want a personal site as an entity home?
Was her DWSC25 talk on influencer marketing recorded? Is there a slide deck or recap she owns? What platform would she host it on?
She's taught Social Media Marketing at the college level. Does she have course materials, frameworks, or a curriculum she could repurpose as thought-leadership content?
She's been recognized by the WBJ 5+ times. Is this a deliberate PR strategy she executes, or organic recognition? What's her approach to nominations/pitches?
Her LinkedIn has 1,368 followers — above average for a Wichita marketing professional. Does she have a content strategy, or is posting ad hoc?
