I "love" these:
When you are an entrepreneur, you have time and freedom.
– No... when you really take care of your business and grow it, you work your 🍑 off 27/9.
As a business owner you are rich.
– Yes, you can be, but if you make money honestly and pay taxes as you should, then in some cases, taxes will take up to 50%—unless you've moved your business to a "low-tax" country.
What else? 😀

Not all social media platforms are created equal for every business. Choose the ones that align with your audience and marketing goals, rather than trying to be everywhere.

@hamna_malik Actually – the best is to find few where is the probability to hit your target audience the highest. Grow grow grow... and there expand to others – it is like transferring people from one platform to another + you compound the follower count.
“Social media is free marketing" is a myth.
There is a huge cost in terms of time and effort to build an organic following that actually buys your stuff, so you should not see it as free. Sometimes, it makes a lot more sense to just do paid ads.
@nathancovey the irony is most folks have no cash to do paid ads, and no patience either to grow organically 💀

@mert_deveci1 how should they differentiate themselves? Just want to make it clear for myself when you are heading with your point.
A large social media following or big networks ensures more earnings.
Totally agree that 'social media is free marketing' is a myth! Organic growth takes sooo much time and effort. Plus the algorithms keep changing, making it harder and harder to get reach without paying. I've found that a mix of organic content and some targeted paid ads works best for building an engaged audience that actually converts. Relying only on organic is leaving money on the table IMO.
