I keep getting work as one, so there's at least enough demand to keep me afloat lol.

Here, there's quite a few jobs on Upwork that ask for community managers: https://www.upwork.com/nx/jobs/search/?q=community%20manager&sort=recency&user_location_match=1

Of course, in fact, I think you can expect the demand to increase over the next few years. Now's a pretty good time to start making a name for yourself as one imo

For sure, we hire freelancers to help us out all the time. What exactly are you looking to get involved in?

Definitely, with the growth of social media, businesses are starting to see the value in having a strong online presence. And of course, this means they need someone who can manage their social media accounts and create engaging content.
