KEY TAKEAWAYS:

  • Boosting posts lets you get your message out to more people. It doesn’t matter if you can pay $1 or $50 a boost; anything will help you gain traction and get eyes on your post. 
  • When deciding on which social media platform, consider what you are selling. If you are selling a product that people need to see, such as a hair salon, interior design, etc., you will want to go with Instagram or tik tok. LinkedIn will be a great platform if you work more with a business-to-business. 
  • There is a wide range of relationships with influencers and collaborators. Some influencers are paid to promote your product, but when starting out, you can also do free collaborations, such as having a guest on your podcast (so their followers will listen). If you have the funding available, companies are out there to match you to an approrpitate influencer for your product/business.
