Everyone is told to start with their social media profiles to bring in massive amounts of traffic and customers.  Shortly after you start with social media marketing you will realize it's a full-time job and can slightly be automated with paid ads.  You need to work on each post like it's a 2,000-word article, have attractive images, respond to anyone who comments, and essentially moderates everything to do with your profiles.  It's a ton of work but it's definitely worth the time invested if you're doing it right.

The main platforms you should be on are definitely Facebook and Twitter since you can post amount your updates and easily have direct conversations with people in the comments.  You should also set up profiles on Instagram, Pinterest, LinkedIn, etc. but they are more niche specific when it comes to marketing.

They're "Neutral" Platforms
Unlike Pinterest and Instagram where you need high-quality images to entice people to come to see your website, Facebook and Twitter just need to to be awesome.  Well, you will still need some images but you won't need to be selling clothing or food in order to entice people to see your profile.
