Answered Curious, it doesn't seem TubeBuddy is using Facebook Ads to market?

[CyberSorcerer]

I say this because just like TubeBuddy, this is business for me. I have 9 channels in total and one is a technology review, gear, and tutorial site. So I'll be doing both TubeBuddy and VidIQ tutorials there. But because I signed up for VidIQ also I started getting Facebook Ads from there on my feed. Which is ok, I understand. It's marketing and lead generation. But I don't see much TubeBuddy stuff? I do hope you have a social media team in-house or at least look into farming it out. Because in 2021 social media is where it's at. Businesses that NEVER dreamed they'd get into social media marketing is doing, mostly out of desperation in these trying times because they need customers. But first, they need leads for the sales team to sell too.

And before anyone ask about me having both TubeBuddy and VidIQ, no it's not about a preference between either one. I'm an internet marketer, but also a serial entrepreneur too and, I have blogs and YouTube channels that cover technology, software, along with tutorials and such.

So my first and only main focus is software, tools, networking, research, studying, testing, marketing, sales, and anything else I can think of to help my business and YouTube channel grow. My businesses are my love and focus, everything is either helping me save time and improve, or not.

What's TubeBuddy's thoughts on Facebook Ads?

Ok, for starters I don't think anyone here is going to be upset that you use both TubeBuddy and VidIQ... however I would say that you are remiss if you are not also using MorningFame!

Competition aside I am afraid I can not speak towards our marketing on Facebook... I do a lot of platforms but at this time I do not do Facebook. We do have a social media specialist (Judah) and we also have a marketing something or other department. We do run ads... I just never talk to them about Facebook in general.

Well just found out about MorningFame, but I went there and it says "Invite Only" and I have no code? So not really sure, at this point, how I get a code or invite. I could Google search it, but right now it's not that important because not too sure what they do or how good they are at doing it.

That's interesting. I didn't know they were invite only, but IMO I would do MF before I would do VidIQ. No real reason, just a personal opinion. They all do the same thing.

Yes, I found a code. You have to search for a code on YouTube. YouTube reviewers offer a link to MF with invite code. So I got it now and will check it out. I'll probably keep both VidIQ and TubeBuddy because I think they work well together. Each one has something that the other doesn't do well. I mean no matter how good you are, you're not going to make one program that does everything 100% great. I know you're a fan of TB and I understand. But I know what I want when I'm researching and there some things I love about VidIQ that TB doesn't do.

Sure, I would agree with that. I am biased, and not just because of employment. But what works for some doesn't work for all and I think you have a smart approach.
