Would a "careers beyond doctor, engineer, CA" series work on Instagram forstudents?

Planning an Instagram series for students in class 8 to 12. Each episode covers one well-paying career that people rarely talk about, from science, commerce or arts. Not doctor, engineer, MBA or CA.

The idea is to show students there are solid, well-paid paths in every stream so they can choose what actually fits them.

Two questions:

  1. Does this angle sound interesting, or is it already overdone?
  2. Are class 8 to 12 students and their parents actually active on Instagram, or would YouTube be the better place?

Most parents try to keep their kids off Instagram and socials.

Most kids don’t want to find out.

Your best bet for evergreen like this is YouTube. Socials are time based and most posts decay.

Coaches are multiplying

Scrolling and reading people's bio on Linkedin, Facebook and some here Amazing how many "coaches", "life coaches", business coach, leadership coach, career coach, mindset coach, sales coach, branding coach, social media coach, health and wellness coach. Where did all these people get qualified to be a "coach"? Life experience? or sounded good on the Bio?

My client took six days to approve a post and then asked why it flopped

I sent this client a finished post on a Monday morning. Nothing complicated, just a promo that was tied to a date that week. It sat there. I nudged once on Wednesday, politely. I got a thumbs up emoji back, which I have learned means nothing at all. The actual approval came Friday night, six days later, after the promo date had already passed and the moment the post was built for was gone. We posted a version of it anyway because they still wanted it up. On Monday they asked why reach was so low compared to the last promo. I did not handle it perfectly in the moment. I wanted to say the post did not flop, the timing did, and the timing was not mine. What I actually did after that was put a simple rule in writing for the next month: approvals come back within two business days, and if they come back late, the post date moves with them. No rush rebuilds, no quiet absorbing of a missed window. One named person approves, not a group thread where everyone assumes someone else looked. They agreed, mostly because I showed them the dates in a row. Sent Monday, nudged Wednesday, approved Friday night, posted late, results low. Seeing it as a timeline made it hard to argue with. It has been better since, not perfect. Approvals still drift when they get busy, but now at least the schedule drift is visible and it is shared. How do you handle late approvals? Do you move the date, charge a rush fee, or just post late and let the numbers say what they say?

How many rounds of revisions before a post stops being yours? I just watched a good idea die on round 4.

I do social for a few small clients. Last week I wrote a post I was actually proud of. Timely, a little funny, sounded like a real person. Then it went into approvals. Round 1, the hook got softened. Round 2, the joke came out. Round 3, the caption got rewritten to sound more like the brand, which apparently means more like a brochure. Round 4, someone senior who does not spend any time on the platform weighed in and we started over. The final version took 8 days to publish. It is fine. It is also something I would scroll right past. My question for other freelancers: do you cap revision rounds in your contract, and has anyone actually enforced it when a client pushed past the cap? I am thinking two rounds max, then we talk. Curious if that holds up in real life or if clients just laugh at it.

Social team of one, losing Sprout... What do you use for inexpensive B2B social listening (LinkedIn, X, Reddit...Claude)?

I’m the entire digital team (1 person) at a boutique agency. Our clients are all B2B, mostly tech. I’m used to being able to tap into a big stack of tools from past agencies, but here we’re basically starting from scratch on listening... We have Sprout but it’s ending. Our CFO thinks it’s too expensive, and I never loved it for listening (I've always found it better for content/community management, and it doesn’t cover LinkedIn, which our clients need). Clients don’t want to pay for listening, but we want it anyway for media pitching and content calendars, so it comes out of our budget. We hope to charge for it, but startup budgets also change constantly, so I need month-to-month pricing if possible. We want to track our 10 clients plus 5 general industry topics. Priorities are LinkedIn, X, and Reddit. Does anyone have any tips/tricks? Is this an impossible ask? I know LinkedIn is the hard one, so I’d love to hear workarounds too.... could go for a combination approach (multiple tools and perhaps a Claude workflow that automates alerts). Thanks in advance!
