Over 3.7 billion people use social media worldwide, 4.4 billion by 2025, according to Statista. So with roughly half of the world's population on social media, you'd do yourself and your business a disservice by not making social media a core component of your marketing strategy. Warning, shameless plug incoming: We developed SocialWeaver, a social media management platform to help businesses build and grow their audience on social media. We launched SocialWeaver here a couple of years ago. Our platform supports Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, LinkedIn, and RSS. We have a free plan if you want to check us out. Happy to answer any questions.

Yes, but as a new startup, it's hard to check what works & what doesn't!

All the time! It's probably one of the best and the most cost effective ways of connecting with your audience :)

We do and you should to. Nowadays, you can't have a full marketing plan without taking social media into account. And especially if you're a indie founder, you'll need support of your online community
Misha Krunic
Yes, Facebook, LinkedIn, Twitter, YouTube and Instagram. We even use Pinterest from time to time.

Yes and paid ads to help complement the Social Media content

Twitter has basically been the only marketing channel for restep.io PH and some Slack communities too but Twitter has the strongest network for our target audience.

Hi @richardfliu, yes we use social media but unlike content or ads, we use it to build super users + ambassadors. IMO 100 super users are better than a million 'i"m just a' users. Super users are straight faced, share their ideas, help you improve your product, champion your product/service, fill the gap as a community leader and so much more. Social does have the power to build communities and build serious network effects. While the traditional playbooks yield some results, it's a crowded world with the same old strategies and tactics. Trust this helps!

@saascoach Well said indeed!

We are developing web applications for clients and there are no universal recipes here. For some cases, social networks are good, for others the opposite is true. We have specially developed a promotion course for such cases https://falconspace.site/blog/ka...

Sure! Facebook, Instagram, and YouTube are probably our best channels to share information about the solutions and services. Also, try to focus on social listening (find people who are talking about product or problems that your product helps with and respond to them). You can set up Google alerts or use a social listening tool, such as Awario.
