What social media platforms to spend time on?

What social media platforms to spend time on?

Author: Jason Resnick March 12, 2018 Duration: 9:05
As a freelancer or consultant, it's hard to set aside time to try new social platforms. So Joe reached out and asked me "How do I determine what social platforms to spend time on?" He followed up with "How do you know you'll get something from it?" The short answer to that followup is that you don’t. The long answer is that you need to be aware of why you are on the social platform in the first place and if your audience is there as well. A few different criteria to pick which platform to try 1. Does my current audience exist there? Will my current audience exist there? 2. Why am I expanding here? What’s the purpose of me being here? 3. Know how I’m going to measure success 4. Give it 3-6 months, but abandon quickly, because as you mentioned, it can spread yourself thin and can be a huge time.

Jason Resnick runs a web development and design business, and he’s heard all the questions that keep independent creators up at night. Twice a week, he opens up the inbox for Ask Rezzz, turning those real-world frustrations into practical, actionable advice. This isn't about abstract theory; it's a direct line to someone who's navigated the same tricky terrain. You'll hear Jason tackle the messy, everyday problems-like dealing with a perpetually late client, figuring out how to build a stable stream of recurring revenue, or shifting your practice to attract clients who truly value your work. The tone is straightforward and conversational, focusing on sustainable strategies over quick fixes. If you're building a creative business and find yourself feeling stuck or overwhelmed, this podcast offers a regular dose of clarity from someone who gets it. Each episode feels like a focused coaching session, designed to help you move past the hurdles and grow a business that respects your time and expertise.
