“I Just Don’t Have Time for Social Media!” – A Small Business Struggle You Can Solve

Running a small business is a full-time job (and then some). You’re the CEO, the accountant, the marketing department, the customer service rep, and the cleaner- all rolled into one. You’re managing orders, emails, suppliers, and the endless stream of admin that never quite disappears.

So when someone tells you, “You should really be posting on social media more…”You probably want to throw your phone out the window or chuck it into a bin of flames, no, just me?

If you’ve ever muttered, “I just don’t have time for social media,” trust me- you’re not alone. As a social media specialist working with small businesses across Warwickshire, Worcestershire & Northamptonshire and beyond, I hear this all the time. And the good news? You don’t have to do it all by yourself.

At Socials with Aim, I help time-strapped business owners like you stay consistent on social media - without burning out or sacrificing your sanity. Let’s talk about why this pain point is so common, what it’s costing your business, and how I can help you fix it.

The Time Crunch: Why Social Media Feels Like Too Much

You’re not lazy, and you’re certainly not disorganised. You’re just wearing a lot of hats. The small business hustle is real- and unfortunately, creating Instagram Reels or crafting perfect captions often lands at the very bottom of the to-do list.

Here’s what usually happens:

• You get inspired and post for a few days.

• Life gets busy. You forget, or run out of ideas.

• You log in two weeks later and feel guilty for going quiet.

• The cycle repeats.

And when you do find a spare 10 minutes, it’s filled with questions like:

• “What should I post?”

• “Will this even get seen?”

• “Do I need to use hashtags still?”

• “Why is engagement down?”

• “What even IS a photo dump?”

Sound familiar?

Social media can feel like a second job - and when your first job already demands 110%, it’s no wonder it gets left behind...

Why It Matters (Even If You're Fully Booked)

A lot of small business owners tell me, “I get most of my business from word of mouth, so social media doesn’t really matter.”But here’s the thing: social media isn’t just about finding new customers.

It’s about:

• Staying top of mind with past customers who might return.

• Building trust with potential clients who are checking you out before they buy.

• Showing your personality, process, and passion—things big brands can’t fake.

• Standing out from competitors in your area.

• Strengthening your brand presence so that when someone is ready to buy, they think of you first.

In other words- social media supports everything else you’re already doing.

And the best part? You don’t have to do it alone.
