7. Market Analysis: Stay updated with the latest content trends, conduct regular benchmarks, and position our brand at the forefront of content innovation.
8. Community Building: Foster a vibrant online community through active social listening, responsive interactions, and regular content posting.
9. Copywriting: Craft content in impeccable English (Arabic is a plus), ensuring clarity, coherence, and charisma.
10. On-Camera Flair: Comfort and charisma in front of the camera is a notable plus, though not mandatory.
