Way to often companies follow a fad without even looking into what it is. They just hear you need this etc. What they do is exactly what you said, throw a person at it and problem solved. What businesses don't understand is that a social media manager is a sales person, customer service person, and sometimes a human resources person. Their job essentially fills all public relations responsibilities and is vital to the companies next step. Do you pay someone like this the meager amounts you listed? Of course not! You also hire someone who is outgoing, organized, and creative in nature. You can't find people like this everyday so make sure they are qualified and paid accordingly! Great post about social media.
