Anya Andreeva’s Mermaid Odyssey: A Splash Of Creativity

A Varied Background

Anya’s journey into social media began with a strong foundation in graphic design, which later evolved into roles in digital marketing and web design. Her foray into the realm of social media commenced in 2013 when she decided to specialize in this dynamic field. 

Over the years, Anya Andreeva has collaborated with a multitude of clients, ranging from budding start-ups to well-established brands, assisting them in enhancing their online presence. Despite dedicating most of her time to growing other people’s channels, she is also a micro-influencer in her own right. 

“Being a social media manager and spending all my time growing other people’s channels means I don’t often have time for my own, but I’m also what you might call a micro-influencer, having recently started a mermaid-themed page @echanting.mermaid last year, which is the platform I use to unleash my creativity.”

Beyond that, she serves as a coach for aspiring user-generated content (UGC) creators, offering valuable insights and guidance through @contentcreator.tips and her website:  https://contentcreator.tips/

“I think there’s so much potential there for people to earn money remotely and I love supporting other creators on their journey.”

In her full-time role, Anya Andreeva is the Head of Social Media for a health supplement brand. She manages a marketing agency responsible for paid ads, along with a UGC agency that interacts with content creators, giving her a unique perspective on both the creative and business aspects of social media.

Harnessing Social Media’s Power

Anya’s successful utilization of social media to expand her online presence and enhance her business centers around three fundamental principles: authenticity, consistency, and engagement.

“By being true to myself and sharing content that aligns with my passions, I’ve been able to create a loyal following that resonates with my message. And the same goes for my clients, whatever brand I’m representing, I make sure to add a personalized touch to it.”

She emphasizes the importance of staying true to oneself while sharing content aligned with personal passions. Consistency is key, with Anya highlighting the necessity of regular posting to thrive in the social media landscape. Genuine engagement with followers, through comments and direct messages, has played a pivotal role in her journey, allowing her to cultivate a loyal audience that resonates with her message.

“Building genuine connections with my followers through engagement, be it through comments and DMs, has helped me grow my online presence and grow my businesses.”

Achieving Work-Life Balance

The challenge of balancing social media endeavors and core business responsibilities is a common struggle. Anya overcame this hurdle by recognizing the value of outsourcing repetitive tasks. She hired virtual assistants (VAs) to handle daily engagement activities, freeing up her time and energy for content creation. 

“I love this question, I have a huge passion for a healthy work-life balance and actually have a website dedicated to mindfulness! Admittedly, it’s not always easy to juggle the demands of social media and running a business while still making time for myself.

And it doesn’t help that I come up with new ideas all the time, I make new pages, and new websites and sometimes let my ideas overwhelm me! The best thing I did last year was hire a VA. Actually, I hired several VAs to help out with tasks that I find repetitive and boring. I like to create content myself, but I find daily engagement to be a completely draining task, so I outsource that, saving myself time and energy. ”

Additionally, she enforces strict rules regarding phone notifications to prevent constant distractions and makes an effort to disconnect from her phone an hour before bedtime. Anya prioritizes self-care through meditation and nature walks, emphasizing the importance of maintaining a healthy work-life balance.

Tips for Aspiring Creators

Anya provides valuable advice for aspiring creators seeking to establish a strong presence on social media. She underscores the significance of offering value to the audience, whether through entertainment, education, or inspiration. Consistency is key, and experimenting with various content types and formats is encouraged. Above all, she emphasizes the importance of authenticity, as staying true to oneself distinguishes creators in a crowded digital landscape. 

“My advice is to focus on providing value to your audience. Whether that value comes in the form of entertainment, education, or inspiration, make sure your content speaks to your audience and resonates with them.

Be consistent too, and don’t be afraid to experiment with different types of content and formats to see what works best for you. Finally, always strive to be authentic and true to yourself – that’s what will set you apart from the crowd.”

Anya Andreeva also recommends seeking coaching and outsourcing tasks to VAs to avoid burnout.

“I’ve seen businesses transform in a matter of weeks after hiring professional help, and if you’re serious about growing your online presence but aren’t sure how to go about it, then getting help can be one of the best and quickest ways to achieve your goal. I’ve invested thousands into my websites and social channels and even now, even though I’ve got over 11 years of experience, I still buy courses or hire coaches just to make sure that I’m at the top of my game in this ever-changing field.”

Staying Informed About Trends

To stay up-to-date with the latest social media features and developments, Anya maintains direct communication with platforms like Meta and TikTok. 

“I speak to Meta and TikTok directly where I can. Just last week I had a fantastic chat with the experts at Meta about reels and it really shifted my entire strategy.”

She also keeps an eye on industry experts, and publications, and follows accounts within her niche. Attending social media conferences, webinars, and continuous learning through courses and coaching sessions provides her with insights into emerging trends and technologies.

“But to be honest, I focus less on trends and more on what I just enjoy creating and just keep an eye on trends in case I like something.”

Insights into Social Media Strategies

Anya Andreeva recently adjusted her social media strategy based on insights from Meta. She shifted from predominantly posting reels to a combination of reels and static photos, aligning with Instagram’s current preferences. 

“I actually just shared a few newsletters about it since I learned so much from my chat with Meta last week. He told me to do a few things that I hadn’t considered before and told me that my views would not be great at first, but that if I changed strategy I needed to stick to it for at least 2 months to see the long term benefits, so I’ll let you know if it’s successful or not!

Right now I’m changing from posting almost 100% reels to a mix of reels and static photos. Apparently, that’s what Instagram wants now! And sticking to posting once a day, as I’ve been doing for the last year. That’s really been working for me.”

“I don’t obsess over my stats, because they will naturally fluctuate and I see a lot of creators freak out or compare themselves to others, and that’s just not very healthy in my opinion.”

Her clients’ accounts feature more structured strategies, balancing value-driven content with promotional efforts, often leveraging ads and influencer collaborations to boost brand visibility. Anya also leverages user-generated content creators for effective product promotion stating, “I also like hiring UGC creators to promote our products as they perform better than anything else.”
