How To Stop Social Media From Being A Time Suck For Your Business

Strategize Your Business Online with Dee Boswell-Buck

“Social media is a fantastic way to grow your reach and to get new eyes on your business. But there is also so much happening on the various platforms in terms of how it's being used that can steal your time and steal your job.”

—Dee Boswell-Buck

Digital marketing has changed considerably in the past 10 years. Love it or hate it, social media is an essential foundation to create a strong online presence.

To be truly effective as a marketing tool, your social media must be strategically aligned with your short and long-term goals — whether that’s launching a new offer or growing your network via your email list — in order to reach and engage with your audience.

But that’s easier said than done if you’re not in a position to hire a digital marketing specialist!

Aside from creating, scheduling and analyzing content, keeping up with all of your communications across multiple platforms can be overwhelming.

This is why I hear so many entrepreneurs complaining that social media is stealing time they can’t afford to lose: Lost time leads to lost revenue and can affect your health and relationships.

Social media can be a time-suck… but it doesn’t have to be! In this episode of Strategize Your Business Online, I share 4 tactics to rescue your time on social media, so you can get back to concentrating on working in your business rather than on it.

It’s time to prioritize your time: Press play to stop social media from being a time-suck on your business!

• Why you should timeblock your personal and professional accounts on social media (and how I created an alter ego to manage mine)!
