98 Dollar Social vs. Smarcomms

98 Dollar Social offers affordable social media management services, but has mixed reviews from customers. Some concerns highlighted include issues with content quality, with reports of posts lacking effort and not meeting client expectations. There are also complaints about the company’s responsiveness and effectiveness in addressing missed postings and other service-related issues. Additionally, some customers have expressed skepticism regarding the authenticity of positive reviews based on their experiences. This feedback suggests that while 98 Dollar Social offers an accessible price point, the level of service and customer satisfaction varies. In contrast, Smarcomms has been a reliable provider since 2016, boasting a wealth of experience and a dedicated US-based team. Discover why an increasing number of small businesses are transitioning from Social SinQ to Smarcomms for premium Social Media Management services.

98 Dollar Social

98 Dollar Social, offering budget-friendly social media management services, has elicited mixed reactions from its clientele. Reviews from customers have surfaced concerns primarily revolving around the service’s value and effectiveness. While some appreciate the affordability and the concept of daily content posting across various platforms, others have pointed out shortcomings in the content’s quality and relevance, indicating it sometimes doesn’t align well with their brand’s voice or audience engagement strategies.

Further feedback has highlighted areas for improvement in customer service responsiveness and flexibility in content customization.

Notably, an observation of 98 Dollar Social’s own social media activity, particularly a dormant Facebook page with the last post dating back over two years, raises questions about the company’s commitment to practicing what they preach in terms of regular social media engagement.

More businesses trust us than anyone else. Here’s what our clients have to say about us.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I get started?
Once you have signed up online, you will immediately land into your dashboard with our Onboarding Instructions.
Next, we will process your order and start work within 24 hours.

Once we have researched your business and industry in-depth, we will create your first week of social media posts.
Then, once our proofreaders have finished doing their thing, we will email you with a preview of your first week of posts.
You can then either ask for revisions or simply approve the posts. The first time, this process may take up to 7-10 business days. After that, it gets faster, and keeps getting better.

What kind of content will you post?
This completely depends on your business and industry, but here are some examples of what we will post:

Custom banners and graphics
Promotional posts related to your products or services
Popular industry news and articles
Questions
Quotes and motivation
Tips and tricks
National awareness days
Seasonal posts
Images and videos
Blog posts

How does Facebook advertising help to grow my business?

Facebook has a unique algorithm that favours paid content, so for us to grow your audience on this platform we need a small advertising budget.

The good news is that this can be as little as £50/$50 per month, but the more you invest the more targeted potential customers we can help you to reach.

What is your ‘Growth Booster’ service?

We have a growth team that will manually log in to your
Instagram and Twitter accounts every working day, to follow and like relevant profiles/content, helping to increase your targeted reach and followers.

P.S. No bots here, we use real people to grow your accounts, the right way.

How long will it take before you start?

Once you sign up, it will usually take up to 7-10 business days before your first week of social media posts will be ready for review. After that, it gets faster, and keeps getting better.

How much time and effort do you need from me?

We are here to save you time and effort, so once you have completed the onboarding instructions then there is nothing else we need from you apart from images and any information about promotions, events, offers etc.

Can I still post to my social media pages?

Yes of course! You are free to post as much as you like. After all, they are your social media pages.

Do I need to sign a contract?

No, we don’t ask you to commit to any contracts.

If you decide that you don’t want to continue with our services then you can cancel straight away and never make another payment.

How many followers will you get my business per month?

A common misconception is that it is all about the number of followers, but it’s not at all. Most agencies will use follower bots that generate thousands of followers per month – but these are almost all fake accounts. We focus on targeting people that will really be interested in your business.

The amount of targeted followers you can expect depends on your industry, the package you choose, and the quality of your content – but to give you an example: a recent women’s clothing brand that subscribed to our services (including Facebook
Advertising and our Follower Growth Service) saw 574 new
Facebook page likes, 354 new Instagram followers, and 298 new Twitter followers in their first month.

    Founder’s Note

    There are 1.3+ million new users joining social media every day, and yet most small businesses are still not using it effectively.

    While it’s more important than ever to have a strong social media presence, most business owners just don’t know where to start.

    Specifically, most small businesses have 3 main challenges when it comes to social media management:

    Money: The options used to be either ‘DIY’ or pay an agency ridiculously high monthly fees with long contracts.

    Time: With so much on your plate, it’s hard to find time for social media.

    Skill: It’s not easy to know what to post or even how to go about creating effective content.

    That’s why we created Smarcomms way back in 2016 to give small business owners like you an affordable, done for you and high quality social media management solution.

    At Smarcomms, we manage your social media marketing from start to finish so you can focus on your business – saving time and money

    So, whether you don’t have any social media pages yet or already have a strong presence, we have the experience to take your business to the next level on social media.

    Sincerely,


    Henry Earle A’Hern
    CEO & Founder of Smarcomms
