I hired someone to do the social media for my business. It was more expensive than the business could afford but I was thinking of it as an investment. We’re in month 2 and I’m not seeing any increase in sales. In your experience how effective is social media marketing? And how long does it take to see results if using organic methods (no ads)?

    I am a pr and visibility guy. I completely tell clients to minimize ad spend and focus on PR. Here is why, get on the news, get more social media engagement and issue press releases and youll have steady traffic, sales and engagement.

    Pr creates buzz and people will check out good content. Marketing wastes a LOT of ad dollars if you don’t have a skilled expert. I would review your social media, see your posts, and then match up your business niche with Reddit, Pinterest and business articles plus get you a few interviews on niche podcasts.
