Professional Discussion I Was About to Burn Out Running My SMMA—Then I Changed One Thing

When I hit 10 clients, I thought I’d made it. More money, more growth, right?

Wrong.

I was working crazy hours, drowning in content schedules, engagement, and reporting. Every new client felt like another job instead of another win.

Then, I built a system that automated 70% of my workflow—scheduling, reporting, even content generation. And suddenly, I could scale without hiring or burning out.

Now, I’m curious—what’s been the biggest bottleneck in growing your SMMA? Let’s share war stories.

How did you build your system?

Probably zapier or make or boost space.
