Social media – a gateway to connection, but also a challenging problem.

In recent years, social media has evolved from simply sharing personal photos to becoming the most important sales and branding channel for small businesses. A viral Facebook post can bring in thousands of visitors overnight. A short TikTok video can turn an unknown brand into a phenomenon.

However, that "light" comes with immense pressure: what to post, when to post, and how to measure it. Small business owners, already busy with a multitude of tasks—selling, customer service, operational management—can easily neglect maintaining a consistent social media presence.

The consequences? The fan page is neglected for weeks, LinkedIn looks unprofessional, and every time a new campaign needs to be launched, everything falls into a chaotic "last-minute rush."

Challenges faced by small businesses in managing social media.

Most small businesses (SMEs) face three major problems:

• Lack of time and staff: Not everyone has a dedicated content team; often, the owner or staff member has to handle writing, designing, and posting all these tasks.
• Lack of ideas and engaging content: writing trending captions and adjusting the tone to suit each channel consumes a lot of energy.
• Lack of a clear measurement system: posts are posted and then left unattended, with no idea which channels are effective, no knowledge of where customers are coming from, gradually leading to a situation of "posting just for the sake of posting."

GTG CRM's AI-integrated social media platform - A smart assistant for small businesses.

To thoroughly address these challenges, GTG CRM has developed AI-integrated Social – an all-in-one social media management tool right within its platform.

The highlight lies in the combination of several elements:

• Manage posts across multiple platforms: from a single dashboard, you can schedule and publish simultaneously on Facebook, LinkedIn, YouTube, and more, without having to open each application separately.
• AI writes and creates content: simply input your main message, and the AI will suggest captions, titles, and hashtags for each channel. Importantly, the AI can also generate illustrative images that match the content, or you can manually upload images, or even connect directly to Google Photos for quick image retrieval.
• Visually measure effectiveness: instead of copying disparate data, the entire reach, engagement, CTR, and multi-channel comparisons are clearly displayed on the dashboard, helping you know exactly where to invest more.

GTG CRM's AI can both generate caption content and create high-quality images.

Real-life situation

Let's say you own an online fashion store. Previously, to launch a new collection, you had to:

• Write different captions for Facebook and LinkedIn.
• Prepare images and schedule posts according to the appropriate time for each platform.
• Then, go into each app to check the number of likes, comments, and shares, and manually compile the totals yourself.

With GTG CRM's AI-integrated Social media, this entire process is streamlined to just a few minutes. You enter a few basic commands, and the AI will automatically suggest captions tailored to each channel's tone. You can also use AI to generate suitable illustrative images or directly select them from your Google Photos. Then, you schedule posts for the entire week and let the system automatically report on performance. At the end of the week, simply open the dashboard to see which channels generated the most effective engagement.

GTG CRM's AI generates caption content that's relevant to a wide range of industries.

Clear benefits for small businesses

When using AI-integrated social media, you'll see it immediately:

• Time spent on social media has decreased by more than half.
• The content is always fresh and tailored to each platform.
• Centralized data makes decision-making easier.
• The brand maintains consistency, eliminating the "Facebook one style, LinkedIn another" dynamic.

More importantly, you can focus on the main thing: product development and customer service, instead of burying yourself in the thought of "what to write in today's post."
