Day 5: Navigating the Social Media Maze: Juggling Ads, Algorithms, and Endless Tutorials

Well, it’s Friday, and I should probably be gearing up for a relaxing weekend, right? But let’s be real—I’ll most likely be knee-deep in social media dashboards, Google AdWords campaigns, and TikTok tutorials until Sunday night.

If you’ve ever tried wrangling all of your social media accounts, setting up ad campaigns, and scouring the web for marketing tips, you’ll know exactly what I mean. Five years ago, I thought I had a decent handle on social media marketing. But today? There’s a whole new world to contend with—TikTok? That definitely wasn’t on my radar back then!

Now, I’m trying to figure out if it makes sense to jump into TikTok, or should I stick to my current platforms and just post the same content everywhere? There's no clear-cut answer, and most of the so-called "expert" tutorials feel like clickbait that lead me down a rabbit hole without really saying anything new. Ah, the joys of learning in the digital age!

But hey, I’m figuring it out as I go—just like most of us are. If you have any non-spammy tips (pretty please), drop them in the comments! In the meantime, I’ll be here... juggling algorithms, hashtags, and analytics over a cup of coffee.

Happy Friday, everyone!
