Founders and business owners must understand that social media marketing is a game of trial and error.
In my opinion, there's absolutely no guarantee that a strategy will be successful until you test, tweak and test again.
That's the secret to successful growth campaigns.
Test, Tweak, and Test again.

Well, they paint a clear picture that social media marketing for startups can guarantee to get your sales and revenue sky high.
@sarah_playford Well it is our jobs as marketers to fix that picture, a little editing here and there would eventually change that. 👍
I 100% agree, it's wild to me when people think if they copy someone's actions and don't get the same sales soon after. You have to build your way of work and what works for you. It's all nice and pretty but it's never the same.
A shortage of resources is typical for startups. As a result, it becomes extremely important to prepare your marketing strategy carefully. Social media marketing is cost-effective for subtle advertisements, unlike conventional media, which may cost you an arm and a leg.
It is really economical. Facebook and Instagram, among other social media platforms, charge for the marketing effort. The advantage is that everyone has control over their spending. Additionally, if you use an organic strategy rather than bought efforts, it will still produce respectable results for you.
Social media marketing can boost your return on investment if you properly plan and create your content. The audience most likely to become consumers will be drawn to it.
Maybe luck plays a big role? What do you guys think.
