Is Notion Really Worth It? My Honest Review as a Social Media Manager

from Dishing Up Digital with Ellen Mackenzie · host Ellen Mackenzie

Thinking about using Notion to run your social media management business? Watch this review first.I tested Notion for two months inside my own workflow to see if it could replace my task manager, planning system, and content calendar. And while it’s one of the most powerful free productivity tools online, there are a few limitations social media managers don’t talk about enough.In this video, I’m breaking down my honest review of Notion after using it with real client work. We’ll cover the free plan, the steep learning curve, why templates completely change the experience, and the biggest reason Notion might not be the all-in-one solution social media managers are looking for.Because when you’re managing client work, your systems matter. The fewer tabs, tools, and workflows you need to juggle, the easier it is to execute consistently.💕 Thank You to Rella for sponsoring this videoUse code ELLEN for 10% off your subscription:👉 https://getrella.com/?via=ellenMy previous Notion video setting up my template: https://youtu.be/002CCCMYb7UMy full Rella review: https://youtu.be/oUVsSAWon0QxxEllen_______________________________________________________________________________________🔗 //LINKS (ad affiliates) //30% off the planning template I use with the code ELLENM30:https://productivitymethod.com/ELLENM30Template mentioned designed for SMMs by my student Christine: https://www.instagram.com/maryfield.media/p/DVb1ysZlZGv/Camera:https://geni.us/iPjpAtLens:https://geni.us/kNkJOxFull list of tools & software I use:https://www.ellenmackenzie.com/tools🤯 //FREE TRAINING SERIES//From Underpaid to In-Demand: A free 4-part private podcast for social media managers who want better clients & higher rates:https://www.ellenmackenzie.com/private-podcast💻 // WORK WITH ELLEN //Join the Dishing up Digital School:https://www.ellenmackenzie.com/Dishing-up-Digital-SchoolJoin the high level mastermind:https://www.ellenmackenzie.com/the-lfg-mastermindSMM template bundle:https://www.ellenmackenzie.com/offers/DwKaVUZdBuy Ellen’s book:https://www.amazon.com.au/dp/0473664798📲 // SOCIAL MEDIA //Instagram:https://www.instagram.com/ellenmackenziee👩‍💻 Ellen’s business:https://www.ellenmackenzie.com/📧 Sponsorship enquiries:[email protected]
