Good morning!
Welcome to Social Studies.
Today…
5 social media tool mistakes and how to avoid them.
THE TOOL MISTAKES I SEE CONSTANTLY
Mistake #1: Tool Hoarding
You don't need 10 tools. You need 5 tools you actually use.
Mistake #2: Chasing Shiny Objects
New tool launches with AI features. Everyone jumps ship. It's half-baked and buggy. Stick with what works.
Mistake #3: Paying for Features You Don't Need
You're paying for "advanced analytics" but using basic metrics. Downgrade and save the money.
Mistake #4: Not Learning the Tool Properly
You bought Canva Pro but use 5% of its features. Watch some tutorials. Get your money's worth.
Mistake #5: Ignoring Free Alternatives
You're paying for a tool that has a free version that does 90% of what you need. Try the free version first.
THE BOTTOM LINE
Tools are great.
Wasting your money on tools you don’t use is not great.
