Here& #39;s a list of things I think(?) I& #39;m not very good at as a community dev, that I probably should be.
A bit of realism and honesty when it comes to abilities!
Thread
1. I& #39;m shy AND introverted

In a job where you need to get to know people, I& #39;m.. quite shy. Like, really shy.
I get queasy introducing myself to new people, the larger a group gets the more quiet I get, I actively try to skip out on as many parties as I can, etc.

2. Photoshop/Premiere

I& #39;m self taught, so a lot of my content is haphazardly slapped on. Why does my content not look as clean as other studios sometimes? Because I might& #39;ve literally just Googled how to do it hours before

3. Analytics

I& #39;m not sure HOW in depth some studios want their analytics, but I can& #39;t genuinely say I& #39;m the BEST at them? (E.g. my knowledge of Google Analytics is pretty basic.)
I can do reports, but sometimes it feels like I should... Do more...? Should I?? Hmmm????

4. Influencer strategy

I& #39;ve never had enough time to really work out a heavy duty influencer plan! So I& #39;d say my tracking and work around it is not as in depth as I& #39;d like.

5. Budgets

My work is primarily in the poor indie space, which means... If I& #39;m given a budget, I& #39;m actually quite lost on where to allocate it (other than say, doing paid ads.)

.. And more, prob!
I think it& #39;s valuable to know your weaknesses (without shame) because... Well, how else will you improve?
