Why Small Businesses Should Upload On Social Media Everyday
I’m going to discuss three important reasons why, as a small business, you should post content every single day on platforms like Facebook, Instagram and TikTok.
If you don’t know who I am, my name is Denzil Duke.
I’m currently a 19 year old freelance digital marketer helping small businesses get more customers through content marketing. This is all in an effort to land my first marketing role in Australia.
I'm a product of my own work and advice. I upload everyday on my Instagram page for the same three reasons I will discuss.
The inspiration for this article came after talking to one of my clients talking about the importance of uploading everyday.

Here’s the three reasons why you should upload everyday:
- Consistency
- More Opportunities To Reach Audiences
- Lead Nurture
Consistency
- Uploading daily creates a consistent cadence.
- Audiences return to your content because of your reliability.
- Regular posting helps you improve your content creation skills.
More Opportunities To Reach Audiences
- Each post is a chance to reach more people.
- If you post only once a week, you have 52 opportunities a year.
- Posting daily gives you 365 opportunities, a 600% increase.
- It takes just one viral video to significantly expand your reach.
Lead Nurture
There are two lenses we can look at content as lead nurture: organic content and paid ads.
Organic Content
- People who engage with your content are interested in your products/services.
- Ideal for platforms where you can directly message people.
- If they're not ready to buy, they stay engaged in the buying cycle through your content.
Paid Ads
- Free content complements paid ads effectively.
- When people see your ad, they often visit your profile.
- They consume your content and, if it's good, they follow through with your CTA. Buy now, visit our website, call now
Summary
Consistency: Regular posting creates a reliable cadence and improves your content creation.
More Opportunities: More posts mean more chances to reach new audiences and potentially go viral.
Lead Nurture: Content marketing keeps potential customers engaged, and pairing it with paid ads enhances effectiveness.
