WOMEN TO WATCH

Bailey Moses

Social Media Manager
Social Grid Media LLC

After graduating college with a degree in social media management and public relations, I received several phone calls from people asking for social media advice. After wondering why I wasn’t getting paid for my social media advice and work, I started Social Grid Media. Two years later, I now manage up to 15 social media accounts and have published a Social Media Planner.

PRESSING QUESTIONS

Best career moment so far

Taking a job that was not for me post-college and realizing my dream wasn’t actually my dream. I always thought I would be climbing the corporate ladder. Instead, I am an entrepreneur building my own ladder to climb.

The one thing I wish people knew about my field

Online and social media success doesn't happen overnight. It takes time, commitment and persistence to grow a following, as well as organic relationships.

Biggest challenges in my career

Working from home and being on social media all day make it challenging to switch from workday to family time. Boundaries and a schedule are important for me to maintain to have a successful day.

I wish someone told me at the start of my career

Graduating college doesn't mean you will get a job, much less a job you love. I learned the hard way and ended up creating my own path when I saw the opportunity.

A skill I never expected to need in this field

Saying "no." It’s a skill, let me tell ya.

Nonprofit I wish more people knew about

Walk for Wheezy and Grand Prairie CASA, two incredible organizations I have had the honor to support and work with.

What keeps me coming back to my job every day

Seeing my clients happy with my work and getting them actual results is the best achievement and motivator.
