Primary ChallengesTime - Abbey needs more time invested in her social media platforms- She needs to keep her content updated in a timely manner; she is

struggling to keep the content going (ex: latest Twitter post Mar.17)

Abbey’s resistance to social media- Unfamiliar with platforms, not very comfortable sharing

Small audience

Lack of diversity in clients/audience - Mostly female; not many men are following/engaging with her

content

Maintaining consistency - Updating platforms regularly with fresh content and consistent

voice
