@Brie-Anna Willey. It’s so hard not to get sucked into this spiral. The social media pundits have done a fantastic job of making us believe we need them. But Seth and Scott have done an even better job of convincing me that I actually don't need social media at all to grow my business.
Such a good lesson about the bots. At this moment there still have "tells" but what happens when they become smart enough to fool us? I, for one, don't need that extra stress in my life.
Thank you for your comment @Katherine and Manon. I think that is powerful that you decided to let go of social media to focus your time on what you like doing instead. And I hear you about what if the bots get so good that they can fool us. This one almost fooled me and I almost always have my walls up. It was scary, lol.
Oh my goodness this is so great, thank you! I just hate seeing anyone spending so much time posting on social media for 95% of their audience to not even see it! It’s like, what are we doing?!
As someone who worked in social media marketing (and still does in a limited capacity), I completely agree. You can't just share your content and then leave, you also have to engage with others—not just with comments you received but with other users' posts, which tends to be a timewaster.
It's good that you identified which platforms can give you the biggest ROI; that's where you should invest more time (aside from your website).

Exactly. I finally see it now.
Love the intention with which you’re rethinking your approach to social media, Brie. Good luck!
Thank you, Scott, I look forward to looking at the analytics with my revamped approach to see what happens.
I SUPER love your nothing-burger meme. 💖
Aww, thank you!!
