The Hootsuite Problem
Hootsuite was built for social media managers, not business owners
Pricing that compounds
Hootsuite is $99/mo for one user, $249/mo for three. Add more team members and costs escalate rapidly. automrktr is flat pricing regardless of seats.
Steep learning curve
Hootsuite requires training to use effectively. Most small businesses need a dedicated social media manager just to operate it. automrktr requires zero marketing expertise.
No Google Ads
Like Buffer, Hootsuite has no Google Ads integration. You're still managing ad campaigns in a completely separate tool.
No conversion tracking
Hootsuite can't tell you which social posts drive actual sales. Without first-party conversion data, your ROI is always an estimate.

automrktr takes over
Content generation and scheduling starts automatically. Nothing else required.
We were paying $249/month for Hootsuite and still had to create all the content ourselves. automrktr costs less, generates everything automatically, and our engagement is up 60%.
