In this episode of Ad-venturous, Aves breaks down what it really looks like to use social platforms with intention when social is literally part of your job.
From personal posting to structured inspiration gathering to deep persona research, Aves explores how to show up online on purpose, not out of habit. She shares:
Why “unstructured research time” isn’t research
How personal posting can actually make you a sharper, faster creator
The real way to separate work scrolling from leisure scrolling
Where personas actually live online (hint: not always where you think)
How understanding different communities makes you a better marketer
Why thoughtful screen-time boundaries lead to better creative output
Tune in, take notes, and start showing up online with intention.
