Overall Satisfaction with Hootsuite

I use Hootsuite for attraction marketing and regular marketing. I want a regular presence on social media and Hootsuite allows me to have that. It addresses the issue of staying relevant and visible. By allowing me to schedule in advance, Hootsuite frees up time for me, which is invaluable as I am a small business owner.

Also, Hootsuite provides me with information about the best times to post on different social media platforms, which helps with engagement.
  • Scheduling posts in advance
  • Educating users about the algorithms on different SM platforms
  • Educating users about hashtags
  • Post analytics
  • Hootsuite has increased my visibility on several social media platforms.
  • Hootsuite has allowed me to gain organic followers that I wouldn't otherwise have.
The support is excellent.

Hootsuite is an excellent solution for small business owners who want to increase their presence on social media.

Hootsuite allows me to schedule posts at the beginning of the week that will run all week long. This "set & forget" option is REALLY important for me as a small business owner who is wearing many hats.

The education that Hootsuite provides about social media platforms is invaluable as well.
